Zepto molar miRNA-21 detection in gold Nano-islands platform toward early cancer screening [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRs) as biomarkers for early cancer diagnostic, were detected through a developed ultrasensitive electrochemical biosensor containing gold Nano-islands (Au-NIs) structures. Different concentrations of miR-21 (from zepto -molar to micro range)

Different strokes for anterior capsulorhexis in pediatric cataract [PDF]
Background: A successful outcome in pediatric cataract surgery is determined by an intact, curvilinear anterior capsulotomy which is dependent on the type and density of cataract, the morphology of the anterior capsule, and associated anterior segment ...

Ultrasensitive biosensing on the zepto-molar level [PDF]
Detection of analytes on the zepto-molar (10(-21) M) level has been achieved using a field-effect bio-detector. By applying a gating voltage to enzymes immobilized on the working electrode of the detector, amplification of the biocatalytic current was observed. The amplification is attributed to the modification of the tunnel barrier between the enzyme

ZEPTO-assisted pseudophakic capsulotomy: Precision pulse technology for management of capsular contraction syndrome [PDF]
We describe a novel technique that uses precision pulse capsulotomy (PPC) to perform a secondary capsulotomy for the management of anterior capsule contraction syndrome (ACCS), a condition that comprises a late complication after cataract surgery and ...

Extrapulmonary and Other Pneumocystis jirovecii Infections Diagnosed via Fungal Cell-Free DNA Using Giant Magnetoresistance Detection [PDF]
Clinical suspicion and diagnosis of Pneumocystis infections rely on a combination of compatible clinical, radiologic, and diagnostic findings. We noted an extrapulmonary Pneumocystis infection when evaluating residual plasma samples from patients with ...

Daily Fungal Cell-Free DNA Testing to Assess Clinical Status during Candida krusei Fungemia [PDF]
We present a case of a man immunocompromised due to myelodysplastic syndrome with Candida krusei fungemia who had a rising cell-free DNA (cfDNA) giant magnetoresistance (GMR) signal when tested daily using plasma blood samples.

A Robust Normally Closed Pneumatic Valve for Integrated Microfluidic Flow Control [PDF]
Accurate fluid management in microfluidic-based point-of-care testing (POCT) devices is critical. Fluids must be gated and directed in precise sequences to facilitate desired biochemical reactions and signal detection.

Zepto precision pulse capsulotomy: A new automated and disposable capsulotomy technology
Despite the appeal of an automated method of creating a perfectly circular anterior capsulotomy, global adoption of femtosecond laser capsulotomy (FSLC) has been limited by its high acquisition and per case cost.
