In this paper, we report the synthesis of MnCO3-Au hybrid microspheres and their application on the electrochemical biosensing of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) based on the immobilization of hemoglobin (Hb). The characterization of MnCO3-Au microspheres revealed that an abundance of Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) has been absorbed on the surface of the spherical MnCO3 by the electrostatic assembly. The combined unique properties of MnCO3-Au microspheres are beneficial for the realization of the direct electron transfer of Hb. Hb immobilized on the microspheres maintained its biological activity, showing a surface-controlled process with the heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant (k s) of 2.63 s-1. The fabricated biosensor displayed an excellent performance for the electrocatalytic reduction of H2O2. The linear range for the determination of H2O2 was from 0.06-40.0 μM with a detection limit of 0.015 µM (S/N = 3). The biosensor also exhibited high selectivity, good repeatability and long-term stability, which offers great potential for H2O2 detection in real sample analysis.Self-assembled hierarchical nanostructures are slowly superseding their conventional counterparts for use in biosensors. These morphologies show high surface area with tunable porosity and packing density. Modulating the interfacial interactions and subsequent particle assembly occurring at the water-and-oil interface in inverse miniemulsions, are amongst the best strategies to stabilize various type of hollow nanostructures. The paper presents a successful protocol to obtain CeO2 hollow structures based biosensors that are useful for glucose to protein sensing. The fabricated glucose sensor is able to deliver high sensitivity (0.495 μA cm-2 nM-1), low detection limit (6.46 nM) and wide linear range (0 nM to 600 nM). CeO2 based bioelectrode can also be considered as a suitable candidate for protein sensors. It can detect protein concentrations varying from 0 to 30 µM, which is similar or higher than most reports in the literature. The limit of detection (LOD) for protein was ∼0.04 µM. Therefore, the hollow CeO2 electrodes, with excellent reproducibility, stability and repeatability, open a new area of application for cage-frame type particles.Amongst assorted regio-selective and targeted oral drug delivery strategies accepted for the gastro-retentive drug delivery system (GRDDS), the floating drug delivery system (FDDS) holds a major share as clinically accepted formulations. The major objective of the present investigation was to explore the silk industry waste protein, silk fibroin (SF) as a possible electrospun nanocarrier for the FDDS. In a nutshell, electrospinning (ES) is one of the flexible and astonishing strategies for the fabrication of porous electrospun nanofibers (NFs), which offers the potential to amend the floating profile, dissolution rate, solubility, and release patterns of the drug, etc as per compendial requirements. Looking at the prospects of floating SF-NFs preparation, we have isolated and lyophilized the SF from industrial waste cocoons and prepared drug-loaded SF single polymer nanofibers (SPN). Lafutidine (LF) being a good candidate for GRDDS selected as a model drug, which is an excellent proton pump inhibitor, mainly used in the treatment of gastric ulcers. Finally, the obtained LF loaded SF-NFs (LF-SF-NFs) were successfully analyzed for physicochemical characteristics, porosity, swelling index, antioxidant activity, mucoadhesion strength, floating properties, enzymatic degradation, and accelerated stability study, etc. Further, these LF-SF-NFs were evaluated for percent drug content, weight variation, in-vitro dissolution in 0.1 N hydrochloric acid (HCl, pH1.2) and fasted state simulated gastric fluid (FSSGF), and accelerated stability study. It has shown significant floating time >18 h, about 99% ± 0.58% floating buoyancy with sustained release up to 24 h. LF-SF-NFs showed good compatibility, entrapment efficiency, antioxidant activity, mucoadhesion strength, enzymatic degradation, and long term stability. Soon, the essential floating and drug release profiles can claim single polymer (SF) based electrospun protein NFs as a possible novel oral nanocarrier for FDDS. Technological advances have given smartphones the capabilities of sensitive clinical measurement equipment at lesser cost and higher availability. The Clinometer is a smartphone application that can be used to measure the joint range of motion in a clinical setting, but psychometric properties of the tool's use measuring cervical range of motion (CROM) are not established. The purpose of this study was to examine the validity and intrarater reliability of the Clinometer application for the measurement of CROM (ie,flexion, extension, rotation, lateral flexion) and to determine the minimal detectable change and SEM. A blinded, repeated-measures correlational design was employed. The study was conducted collaboratively between 2 athletic training clinics. A convenience sample of healthy adults ages 18-30years were recruited. Participants with any history in the last 3months of cervical or thoracic pathology, pain, or any musculoskeletal injury were excluded. Three repetitions of each motion were measured by a primary researcher with a goniometer. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ins018-055-ism001-055.html The same researcher then conducted 3 blinded measurements with the Clinometer application following the same procedure. A second researcher, blinded to the goniometer measurements, recorded the results. Thirty minutes later, testing was repeated with the application. The Pearson correlation was calculated to determine validity of the application compared with goniometry. The measurements between devices had moderate to excellent concurrent validity, with the coefficients ranging between 0.544 and 0.888, P < .01. Test-retest reliability of the CROM measurement using the application was moderate to excellent, with intraclass correlation coefficients ranging between .774 and .928. Across all movements, the SEM ranged from 1.17° to 2.01°, and the minimal detectable change ranged from 1.18° to 2.02°. The Clinometer application is a valid and reliable instrument for measuring active CROM. clinical measurement, level 1b. clinical measurement, level 1b.
