Nanobiosensor Based on Catalytic Palladium Nanoclusters and Oxidases for Bianalyte Electrochemical Determination: Glucose and Ethanol in Sweat

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A nanobiosensor for fast and simultaneous determination of sweat glucose and ethanol is presented. Deposited oxidase enzymes consume oxygen in the presence of the substrates, and co‐deposited palladium nanoclusters catalyze the electrochemical oxygen reduction, basis of the detection.

Establishment of a novel cynomolgus monkey model of hyperuricemia

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine
Background Chronic hyperuricemia is associated with complications such as gout and uric acid nephropathy, but uric acid also exhibits biological activities (e.g., antioxidant effects, potential neuroprotective properties against neurodegenerative ...

Association between smoking behavior and serum uric acid among the adults: Findings from a national cross-sectional study.

PLoS ONE, 2023
BackgroundGout incidence is increasing worldwide; appropriate management of serum uric acid levels and a healthy lifestyle may help its prevention. The popularity of electronic cigarettes and the resultant emergence of dual smokers is increasing. Despite

Flexible Polypyrrole‐Based pH Sensors via Oxidative Chemical Vapor Deposition

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Oxidative chemical vapor deposition (oCVD) of polypyrrole (PPy) thin films yields flexible, electrically conductive, and biocompatible pH sensors for monitoring on‐skin biological events. The highly sensitive, oCVD PPy skin‐conformal sensors enable real‐time, spatially resolved sensing of dynamic pH changes within physiologically relevant ranges (4–9 ...

Characterization of the complete uric acid degradation pathway in the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Degradation of purines to uric acid is generally conserved among organisms, however, the end product of uric acid degradation varies from species to species depending on the presence of active catabolic enzymes. In humans, most higher primates and birds,

ADVANTED OF SARANG SEMUT INFUSION (Myrmecodia pendens Merr & Perry) AS DECREASED BLOOD’S URIC ACID IN MALE RATS OF WISTAR STRAIN [PDF]

, 2017
Hyperuricemia is a condition of high levels of uric acid in the blood. Hyperuricemia can occur on the accumulation of uric acid crystals in the joints, causing pain.

Digital Microneedles for Multiplexed Transdermal Sensing via Fluorescent QR Codes

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Digital fluorescent microneedles encode biochemical information in skin into scannable QR codes through threshold‐activated probes that generate binary on/off signals. By transforming analog fluorescence into discrete digital patterns, this platform enables calibration‐free, multiplexed transdermal sensing of physiologically relevant biomarkers ...

Uric acid, an important screening tool to detect inborn errors of metabolism: a case series

BMC Research Notes, 2017
Background Uric acid is the metabolic end product of purine metabolism in humans. Altered serum and urine uric acid level (both above and below the reference ranges) is an indispensable marker in detecting rare inborn errors of metabolism.
