Microfluidic Molecular Diagnostic Chips: Functional Modules, Integration Strategies, and Emerging Applications

Small Methods, EarlyView.
This comprehensive review delivers an engineering‐centric analysis of microfluidic molecular diagnostic chips, breaking them down into foundational modules from fluid manipulation to bio‐sensing. Beyond chip design, it evaluates sample‐to‐answer integration strategies and commercial readiness levels.

Media‐Dependent Growth, Stress Responses, and Metal Accumulation Patterns in Azolla imbricata (Roxb.) Nakai Exposed to As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn: Individual and Combination Effects (Synergistic, Antagonistic, and Additive)

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, we examined metal accumulation and biochemical responses of Azolla imbricata (Roxb.) Nakai exposed to water medium (WM) and nutrient medium (NM) under single and combined (co‐exposure) treatments with five metals (As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn) at 10% environmentally relevant concentrations.

Electrochemical aptasensors for ultrasensitive multiplexed detection: Towards a new era of precision diagnostics and environmental monitoring

VIEW, EarlyView.
Electrochemical aptasensors are emerging as powerful platforms for precision diagnostics and environmental monitoring, owing to their high selectivity, programmability and compatibility with miniaturised systems. However, their broader application is constrained by limited signal intensity and challenges in reliable multiplexed detection.

Goose herbivory alters soil microbial community functional potential in a sub‐Arctic wetland

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Herbivory alters below‐ground resource dynamics via direct and indirect mechanisms, yet its effects on microbial functional potential remain poorly understood. This limits our understanding of the mechanisms that link animal, plant and microbial functional roles in ...

Assessing the Efficacy of Steinernema carpocapsae for Biological Control of Megaselia halterata on Mushroom Farms

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Steinernema carpocapsae applications averaged 40%–60% mortality of mushroom phorid larvae in laboratory experiments. Survival experiments showed that nematode populations drop 50% approximately 5 days post application in mushroom compost. ABSTRACT Mushroom phorid flies (Megaselia halterata; MPF) are a major pest of commercial mushroom production, where

Food selectivity and grazing responses of the Lawnmower Blenny (Salarias fasciatus) to nutrient enrichment and ammonia exposure

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Nutrient enrichment can alter the nutritional quality of the epilithic algal matrix (EAM) and modify the feeding environment of herbivorous and detritivorous reef fishes. However, wastewater inputs can also elevate ammonia concentrations, which may disrupt fish physiological processes, yet the effects of ammonia exposure on grazing activity ...
