Spermine and spermidine serve as the key biomarkers for early-stage cancer diagnosis. This work reports a rapid, highly selective, and noninvasive sensing platform for spermine/spermidine. The hybrid ...

This pilot study evaluates a newly developed point-of-care (PoC) device designed to measure bilirubin levels in human blood ...

Background and aims: Hydrophobic bile acids contribute to hepatocellular injury in cholestasis and rapidly induce apoptosis in vitro; however, unlike Fas agonists, cholestasis does not cause extensive ...

GNS-4 also enabled the direct detection of bilirubin spiked in artificial urine at a 20 nM detection limit. Furthermore, our “mix-and-detect” SERS platform effectively monitored bilirubin levels in ...

Urine samples from consenting volunteers (n = 120) were tested with Abuscreen, EMIT d.a.u., and TDx for cannabinoids, barbiturates, and benzodiazepines.

Bilirubin concentrations were varied from 176 to 708 μM by adding bilirubin to plasma samples. Ibuprofen caused a linear increase in UB up to +54% at a concentration of 1.8 mM, compared with an ...

Compared with infants born before universal screening, those born after were significantly less like to develop bilirubin levels of 25.0 to 29.9 mg/dL (odds ratio, 0.62) or >30.0 mg/dL (OR, 0.35).

The urine of most healthy, properly hydrated people is light yellow or clear and nearly free of odor. It also causes no pain or discomfort to pass. But for the majority of people with a urinary ...

Objectives Liver dysfunction is prevalent in patients with heart failure (HF) and can lead to poor prognosis. The albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score is considered as an effective and convenient scoring ...

A Florida Sam’s Club was forced to throw away more than $10,000 worth of Spam and Vienna sausages after a 70-year-old shopper allegedly urinated on the products.

Scientists say they have new experimental evidence of a novel role for bilirubin, a natural yellow pigment found in the body, in protecting humans from the worst effects of malaria and potentially ...

In a bid to pin down the role of bilirubin, the scientists collaborated with the lab of Florian Kurth at Charité Berlin, Germany, and Centre de Recherches Médicales de Lambaréné in Gabon to conduct an ...
