Colorimetric immunoassays based on nanozyme labelling offer promising solution to rapid detect pathogenic bacteria for ensuring food safety. However, sluggish electron transfer kinetics and finite active sites of nanozyme result in unsatisfactory catalytic activity, achieving sensitive detection remains a challenge. Here, we report a Cu2O@CeO2 heterostructure nanozyme with synergistic amplification effect integrating rapid charge transfer kinetics and abundant active sites to enhance the colorimetric immunoassay for sensitive detection of pathogenic bacteria. Highly active CeO2 nanoparticles (NPs) are uniformly and firmly anchored onto stable Cu2O nanocubes to form Cu2O@CeO2 core-shell heterostructure, which effectively alleviates the aggregation of NPs and achieves extremely exposure of catalytic active sites. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that electron transfer at the heterointerface induces a strong built-in electric field, along with abundant density and high affinity for H2O2, thus enhancing the reaction kinetics and catalytic activity of the nanozyme. Benefiting from these advantages, the Cu2O@CeO2 heterostructure nanozyme exhibits excellent peroxidase-like activity, which could effectively catalyze the substrate 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to generate blue oxidized TMB. More importantly, the colorimetric immunoassay utilizing Cu2O@CeO2 nanozyme as labeling probe achieves sensitive detection of Salmonella with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 26 CFU/mL and presents high specificity and stable applicability in spiked food samples. This work provides scientific insights for developing high-activity heterostructure nanozyme and advancing the exploitation of fast bacteria detection technologies to ensure food safety.
Rapid and reliable detection of foodborne pathogens is essential for ensuring food safety. Here, we report an integrated acoustofluidic biosensing platform for quantitative detection of Salmonella that couples a vibrating bubble-array microchannel with nanozyme-based colorimetric readout. In this design, air bubbles are reproducibly confined between paired cylindrical micropillars and organized as serial trapping units along the microchannel to support continuous-flow operation. Upon low-frequency excitation from a piezoelectric buzzer, oscillating bubbles generate stable streaming vortices that enable size-selective partitioning, preferentially retaining micron-scale bacteria-nanozyme conjugates while allowing nanoscale free Au@Pt nanozymes to pass downstream for subsequent colorimetric readout. Using smartphone-based image analysis, the Salmonella assay achieves a linear response from 8 × 101 to 8 × 105 CFU/mL with a limit of detection of 26 CFU/mL. Reliable performance was further demonstrated in Salmonella-spiked clarified chicken homogenate supernatants with 95.1-101.4% recoveries and RSD ≤ 5.4%. This work demonstrates bubble-enabled acoustofluidic partitioning, providing a simple and wash-reduced platform for foodborne pathogen analysis.
After decades of development, China’s medical consortium construction has achieved initial results. Through the integration and revitalization of medical resources, it has effectively solved the problem of people’s difficulty in visiting a doctor, and has become a major measure of medical reform.

Screening of pathogenic bacteria is an essential measure for ensuring food safety. A fast, sensitive and automatic platform for Salmonella determination was presented employing continuous-flow magnetic isolation, enzymatic impedance amplification and smartphone data analysis. First, magnetic nanoparticles coupling with polyclonal antibody, polystyrene spheres coupling with monoclonal antibody and glucose oxidase, and bacterial sample were simultaneously immitted into reaction chamber, and actively mixed for formation of MNP-Salmonella-PS complexes in the microfluidic chip. After the MNP-Salmonella-PS complexes were continuous-flow caught in separation channel using the enhanced magnetic field and successively washed for removing redundant immune PSs and remanent ions, glucose with high impedance was then pumped and catalyzed into hydrogen peroxide and gluconic acid. Finally, impedance change of catalysate was dynamically measured with the on-chip PCB electrode and analyzed by the self-developed smartphone to quantify target bacteria. The microfluidic platform was able to quantitatively detect Salmonella from 1.3 x 102 to 1.3 x 106 CFU/mL in 1.5 h with a detection limit of 53 CFU/mL. The recovery of Salmonella in spiked chicken meats ranged from 88.2% to 112.0%, verifying its good practical applicability. This platform is featured with fast detection, high sensitivity and simple operation, and promising for in-field Salmonella screening.
Blood tests are considered as standard clinical procedures to screen for markers of diseases and health conditions. However, the complex cellular background (>99.9% RBCs) and biomolecular composition often pose significant technical challenges for accurate blood analysis. An emerging approach for point-of-care blood diagnostics is utilizing "label-free" microfluidic technologies that rely on intrinsic cell properties for blood fractionation and disease detection without any antibody binding. A growing body of clinical evidence has also reported that cellular dysfunction and their biophysical phenotypes are complementary to standard hematoanalyzer analysis (complete blood count) and can provide a more comprehensive health profiling. In this review, we will summarize recent advances in microfluidic label-free separation of different blood cell components including circulating tumor cells, leukocytes, platelets and nanoscale extracellular vesicles. Label-free single cell analysis of intrinsic cell morphology, spectrochemical properties, dielectric parameters and biophysical characteristics as novel blood-based biomarkers will also be presented. Next, we will highlight research efforts that combine label-free microfluidics with machine learning approaches to enhance detection sensitivity and specificity in clinical studies, as well as innovative microfluidic solutions which are capable of fully integrated and label-free blood cell sorting and analysis. Lastly, we will envisage the current challenges and future outlook of label-free microfluidics platforms for high throughput multi-dimensional blood cell analysis to identify non-traditional circulating biomarkers for clinical diagnostics.

In this study, a power-free biosensor was presented to detect Salmonella typhimurium on a microfluidic chip using a slide multivalve for channel selection and a disposable syringe for fluidic transfer. First, bacterial sample with immunomagnetic nanoparticles (IMNPs) and glucose oxidase (GOx) modified immune polystyrene nanoparticles (IPNPs), washing buffer, glucose, and peroxide test strip (PTS) were preloaded in their respective chambers at the periphery of chip. After the slide multivalve was selected to connect sample chamber with common separation chamber, which was connected with a syringe, the mixture of Salmonella, IMNPs and IPNPs was back and forth moved through 3D Tesla-structure micromixer using the syringe, resulting in the formation of IMNP-Salmonella-IPNP complexes, which were captured in the separation chamber using a magnet. Then, two washing chambers were selectively connected respectively to remove sample background and excessive IPNPs, and glucose chamber was connected, allowing the GOx to catalyze glucose to produce hydrogen peroxide in the separation chamber. Finally, PTS chamber was connected and the catalysate was transferred from the separation chamber to the PTS chamber, leading to the color change of PTS, followed by using smartphone App to collect and analyze the image of PTS for bacterial determination. The simple biosensor enabled simple detection of Salmonella as few as 130 CFU/mL within 60 min and is promising for practical applications in the resource-limited regions due to its low cost, simple operation, and small size.

With the deepening of China′s medical reform, in order to further improve the utilization efficiency of medical resources, public hospitals have actively explored the establishment of different forms of hospital groups, made many useful attempts in the group operation mode, and accumulated a lot of experience. Taking the group construction practice of Peking University Third Hospital as an example, the authors probed into effective implementation paths for group construction of public hospitals from the aspects of management mode, governance structure, resource sharing, homogeneous management among others. By creating a management model of compact hospital districts, compact community health service centers, and semi compact trusteeship branches, the group had constantly refined the development path of discipline construction, and promoted the comprehensive integration and development of medicine, education, research. On such basis, the group had paved a solid and effective path in the aspects of expanding the influence of the hospital, and promoting the implementation of hierarchical medical service, for references in high-quality development of public hospitals.

Early screening of Salmonella is of utmost importance to minimize the incidence of related foodborne diseases. Here, we reported an immunosensor to fast detect Salmonella using Fe-MIL-88NH(2) metal-organic framework (Fe-MOF) nanocubes to load platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) for signal amplification and smartphone thermal imaging to monitor the temperature change. The Fe-MOF nanocubes decorated with PtNPs (Fe-MOF/PtNPs) were prepared as peroxidase mimics to catalyze hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to produce O-2. The immune magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), the target bacteria, and the immune Fe-MOF/PtNPs were first mixed by the three-dimensional (3D) chaotic micromixer and conjugated in the microfluidic chip to form MNP-bacteria-Fe-MOF/PtNPs sandwich complexes. After magnetic separation and washing, H2O2 was injected and decomposed by Fe-MOF/PtNPs on the sandwich complexes to generate O-2 in a sealed chamber. The increase in the pressure pushed the preloaded water to react with calcium oxide powder, resulting in the generation of heat, which was measured using the smartphone-based thermal sensor to determine the bacteria. The microfluidic immunosensor could detect Salmonella as low as 93 CFU/mL within 1 h.
Background County hospitals as the backbone of the China’s healthcare system are providing services for over 70% of the total population. However, the hospital management practice (HMP) and its links with quality of care, efficiency and finance in these hospitals are unknown. Methods We did two cross-sectional surveys of HMP in 2013 and 2015 among 101 county hospitals across rural China. Three managing roles (hospital director, director of medical affairs office and director of cardiology) and a cardiologist were invited to the surveys. A novel HMP rating scale, with 100 as full score, was used to measure the HMP in 17 indicators under four dimensions (target, operation, performance, and talent management) for each hospital. We analyzed the association of HMP score with variables on quality of care, efficiency and finance using linear mixed models with and without adjustment for potential confounders. Findings A total of 95 hospitals participated in at least one survey and were included in the analysis. The overall mean HMP score varied dramatically across the hospitals and 84% of them scored less than 60. The dimension mean HMP score was 38.6 (target), 56.4 (operation), 53.2 (performance) and 55.7 (talent), respectively. The pattern of indicator mean HMP score, however, was almost identical between hospitals with high and low overall HMP score, showing the same ‘strength’ (staff satisfaction, staff performance appraisal, ‘hard wares’, patient-centered services, etc.) and ‘weakness’ (target balance, target setting, continuous quality improvement, penalties on staff with dissatisfied performance, etc.). The associations of overall mean HMP score with quality of care and efficiency variables and cost per hospitalization was not statistically significant. The statistical significance in the association with hospital annual total income disappeared after adjusting for region, teaching status, number of competitors, number of staff and number of beds in use. Conclusion The HMP in Chinese county hospitals scores low in general and was not significantly associated with hospital care quality, efficiency and finance. The current healthcare reform in China should address the micro level issues in hospital management practices.
In-field screening of foodborne pathogens plays an important role in ensuring food safety. Thus, a microfluidic biosensor was developed for rapid and sensitive detection of Salmonella using manganese dioxide nanoflowers (MnO2 NFs) for amplifying the biological signal, a microfluidic chip with a convergence-divergence spiral micromixer for performing automatic operations, and a smartphone app with a saturation calculation algorithm for processing the image. First, immune magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), the sample, and immune MnO2 NFs were fully mixed and sufficiently incubated in the spiral micromixer to form MNP-bacteria-MnO2 sandwich complexes, which were magnetically captured in a separation chamber in the microfluidic chip. Then, a 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) substrate was injected and catalyzed by a MnO2 NF nanomimetic enzyme on the complexes, resulting in the production of yellow catalysate. Finally, the catalysate was transferred into a detection chamber and its image was measured and processed using the smartphone app to determine the number of bacteria. This biosensor was able to detect Salmonella from 4.4 × 101 to 4.4 × 106 CFU/mL in 45 min with a detection limit of 44 CFU/mL, and has the potential to provide a promising platform for on-site detection of foodborne bacteria.

An acid-responsive microfluidic biosensor using curcumin (CUR) as signal reporter and ZnO-capped mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) for signal amplification was developed for sensitive and rapid detection of Salmonella in colorimetric and fluorescent modal. The MSNs were first incubated with CUR to obtain MSN@CUR nanoparticles (MC NPs). The MC NPs were then capped with ZnO nanoparticles to form MSN@CUR@ZnO nanoparticles (MCZ NPs) to prevent CUR from premature release, followed by modification with polyclonal antibodies (pAbs) against Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) to obtain immune MSN@CUR@ZnO@pAbs nanoparticles (MCZP NPs). The immune magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), the S. Typhimurium cells and the MCZP NPs were conjugated in the microfluidic chip with a Koch fractal mixing channel to form MNP-bacteria-MCZP complexes. Finally, the acetic acid (HAc) was first time introduced to release CUR from the complexes, and both the color and fluorescence changes were measured to determine the concentration of Salmonella. This proposed biosensor was able to quantitatively detect S. Typhimurium ranging from 10(2) to 10(7) CFU/mL in 1.5 h and the lower detection limits were calculated to be 63 CFU/mL for colorimetric measurement and 40 CFU/mL for fluorescent measurement, respectively. The mean recovery was about 104 % for Salmonella in the spiked chicken samples.
Salmonella screening is a key to ensure food safety in poultry supply chains. Currently available Salmonella detection methods including culture, polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay could not achieve rapid, sensitive, and in-field detection. In this study, different strategies for separation and detection of Salmonella were proposed, compared, and improved based on our previous studies on immunomagnetic separation and impedance biosensor. First, the coaxial capillary for immunomagnetic separation of target bacteria was improved with less contamination, and 3 strategies based on the improved capillary and immunomagnetic nanoparticles were compared to separate the target bacteria from sample and form the magnetic bacteria. The experimental results showed that the strategy of capture in tube and separation in capillary was the most suitable with separation efficiency of approximately 88%. Then, the immune gold nanoparticles coated with urease were used to label the magnetic bacteria, resulting in the formation of enzymatic bacteria, which were injected into the capillary. After the urea was catalyzed by the urease on the enzymatic bacteria in the capillary, different electrodes were compared to measure the impedance of the catalysate and the screen-printed electrode with higher sensitivity and better stability was the most suitable. This impedance biosensor-based bacterial detection strategy was able to detect Salmonella as low as 102 CFU/mL in 2 h without complex operations. Compared to the gold standard culture method for practical screening of Salmonella in poultry supply chains, this proposed strategy had an accuracy of approximately 90% for 75 real poultry samples.
