This study developes a universal colorimetric ICA platform that integrates broad‐spectrum recognition by 4‐mercaptophenylboronic acid with dual signal enhancement—both colorimetric and catalytic—mediated by a biomimetic magnetic nanozyme. This platform, for the first time, enables simple, convenient, ultrasensitive, and simultaneous screening of ...

Vaccination of Cattle with the N Terminus of LppQ of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides Results in Type III Immune Complex Disease upon Experimental Infection [PDF]
Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP) is a serious respiratory disease of cattle caused by Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides. Current vaccines against CBPP induce short-lived immunity and can cause severe postvaccine reactions. Previous studies have
