Digital Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering With Event Counting and Spectrum Learning for Label‐Free Protein Quantification

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A statistical and machine learning‐assisted surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) framework is developed for label‐free quantification of low‐abundance analytes, including proteins. Combining digital SERS event counting with binomial regression and an artificial neural network (ANN) trained on full spectra, the approach achieves picomolar detection ...

Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...
