which has specific sugars in a specific location in the molecule. Professor Mendes added""Biomarkers such as glycoproteins are essential in diagnostics as they do not rely on symptoms perceived by the patient,
the sugar part of the prostate cancer glycoprotein is reacted with a custom-designed molecule that contains a boron group at one end (the boron linkage forms a reversible bond to the sugar).
The glycoprotein is then bound to the surface via its sugar groups, before the rest of the surface is blocked with a third molecule.
Within that cast, there was a special area with boron-containing molecules that can recognise a specific set of sugars.
so there's a clear need for more accurate diagnosis. By focussing on the sugar, we appear to have hit the'sweet spot'for doing just that.

#Detecting small metallic contaminants in food via magnetization: A practical metallic-contaminant detecting system using three high-Tc RF superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDS) Abstract:
The detection of metallic contaminants in foods is important for our health and safety. However, existing inspection methods have limitations.
and it cannot be applied for the inspection of foods that have lactic acid bacteria because X-ray radiation causes ionization of such foods.
(SQUIDS) for food inspection. The detection technique is based on recording the remnant magnetic field of a contaminant using SQUID sensors.
In the process, a strong magnetic field is applied to food to magnetize the metal fragments inside,
if they are contained in the food, can be detected by sensing their magnetic fields using SQUID sensors.
says,"We have developed an inspection system that permits contaminant detection in a food package with a height of 100 mm with three high-Tc RF SQUIDS.
The target size of the metallic contaminant in food with a stand-off distance of 100 mm is 0. 5 mm."
the sensor is placed inside a square metallic box designed such that food can be tested as it passes through this box.
