This work presents an efficient method for the preparation of magnetic nanoparticles modified with molecularly imprinted polymers (Mag-MIP) through core-shell method for the determination of biotin in milk food samples. ...

Antigens with aromatic amino groups can be conjugated to proteins by a diazo bond. This property was used to synthesise an antigen-biotin conjugate using bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a bridge, and tested this conjugate ...

The sodium-dependent multivitamin transporter (SMVT) is essential for mediating and regulating biotin entry into mammalian cells. In cells, biotin is covalently linked to histones in a reaction catalyzed by holocarboxylase ...

The knowledge of mosquitoes Culicidae host feeding patterns is basic to understand the roles of different species and to indicate their importance in the epidemiology of arthropod-borne diseases. A laboratory assay was ...

Background: Targeted gene transduction in vivo is the ultimate preferred method for gene delivery. We previously developed targeting lentiviral vectors that specifically recognize cell surface molecules with conjugated ...

The sodium-dependent multivitamin transporter (SMVT) is essential for mediating and regulating biotin entry into mammalian cells. In cells, holocarboxylase synthetase (HCS) mediates covalent binding of biotin to histones; ...

This study was performed to prove the feasibility of a direct impedimetric DNA genosensor by using biotin self-assembled monolayer (SAM). The sensor was composed of a gold rod with a SAM of biotin-modified 19-base ...
