A BRET-based Mpro biosensor containing a nanobody and tandem cleavage sites shows an increased cleavage rate حسب Geethakumari, Anupriya M

"…We envisage that the NB2E3 nanobody-2× Mpro biosensor engineered here will be useful in drug discovery and functional characterization of Mpro mutants in newly emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants as well as in detecting SARS-CoV-2 infection in a point-of-care testing (POCT) format.…"

Rapid mercury removal using living indigenous microalgal communities for water treatment applications حسب Amr Nasr Fekry (22521185)

"…Advanced characterization revealed significant surface modifications, with Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) showing increased surface roughness, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) indicating involvement of hydroxyl, protein, and carbohydrate functional groups, and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) confirming Hg(II) binding to oxygen-containing moieties with distinctive Hg 4f peaks at 101.78 and 105.8 eV. Optical microscopy revealed the formation of sudden spherical-shell boundaries around individual cells providing visual evidence of an immediate physico-chemical response at the cell-mercury interface, correlating with the observed rapid kinetics. …"
