Journal: Demonstration of a kHz-repetition-rate extreme ultraviolet laser at 41.8?nm. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 1, 2024 The 41.8?nm laser pulses were generated in a Xe plasma created by optical-field ionization by the L1 Allegra laser at ELI Beamlines. The output power of the XUV laser lies in the few microwatt range, and the energy efficiency of this pumping scheme opens the way for further scaling in repetition rate and average power.

Journal: Ratiometric Molecularly Imprinted Particle Probes for Reliable Fluorescence Signaling of Carboxylate-Containing Molecules. (Pubmed Central) - Sep 4, 2024 The dual-fluorescent MIP probe detects fexofenadine as the model analyte with a change in green emission signal referenced against a stable red signal, achieving a detection limit of 0.13 ?M and a broad dynamic range from 0.16 ?M to 1.2 mM, with good discrimination against other antibiotics in acetonitrile. By selecting a versatile dye scaffold and recognition element, this approach can be extended to other carboxylate-containing analytes and/or wavelength combinations, potentially serving as a robust multiplexing platform.
