Spatiotemporal Controllable Sono-Nanovaccines Driven by Free-Field Based Whole-Body Ultrasound for Personalized Cancer Therapy.

Therapeutic cancer vaccines fail to produce satisfactory outcomes against solid tumors since vaccine-induced anti-tumor immunity is significantly hampered by immunosuppression. Generating an in situ cancer vaccine targeting immunological cold tumor microenvironment (TME) appears attractive. Here, a type of free-field based whole-body ultrasound (US)-driven nanovaccines are constructed, named G5-CHC-R, by conjugating the sonosensitizer, Chenghai chlorin (CHC) and the immunomodulator, resiquimod (R848) on top of a super small-sized dendrimeric nanoscaffold. Once entering tumors, R848 can be cleaved from a hypoxia-sensitive linker, thus modifying the TME via converting macrophage phenotypes. The animals bearing orthotopic pancreatic cancer with intestinal metastasis and breast cancer with lung metastasis are treated with G5-CHC-R under a free-field based whole-body US system. Benefit from the deep penetration capacity and highly spatiotemporal selectiveness, G5-CHC-R triggered by US represented a superior alternative for noninvasive irradiation of deep-seated tumors and magnification of local immune responses via driving mass release of tumor antigens and "cold-warm-hot" three-state transformation of TME. In addition to irradiating primary tumors, a robust adaptive anti-tumor immunity is potentiated, leading to successful induction of systemic tumor suppression. The sono-nanovaccines with good biocompatibility posed wide applicability to a broad spectrum of tumors, revealing immeasurable potential for translational research in oncology.

MiR-17-5p-engineered sEVs Encapsulated in GelMA Hydrogel Facilitated Diabetic Wound Healing by Targeting PTEN and p21.

Delayed wound healing is a major complication of diabetes, and is associated with impaired cellular functions. Current treatments are unsatisfactory. Based on the previous reports on microRNA expression in small extracellular vesicles (sEVs), miR-17-5p-engineered sEVs (sEVs17-OE) and encapsulated them in gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel for diabetic wounds treatment are fabricated. SEVs17-OE are successfully fabricated with a 16-fold increase in miR-17-5p expression. SEVs17-OE inhibited senescence and promoted the proliferation, migration, and tube formation of high glucose-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HG-HUVECs). Additionally, sEVs17-OE also performs a promotive effect on high glucose-induced human dermal fibroblasts (HG-HDFs). Mechanism analysis showed the expressions of p21 and phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), as the target genes of miR-17-5p, are downregulated significantly by sEVs17-OE. Accordingly, the downstream genes and pathways of p21 and PTEN, are activated. Next, sEVs17-OE are loaded in GelMA hydrogel to fabricate a novel bioactive wound dressing and to evaluate their effects on diabetic wound healing. Gel-sEVs17-OE effectively accelerated wound healing by promoting angiogenesis and collagen deposition. The cellular mechanism may be associated with local cell proliferation. Therefore, a novel bioactive wound dressing by loading sEVs17-OE in GelMA hydrogel, offering an option for chronic wound management is successfully fabricated.

P-MSC-derived extracellular vesicles facilitate diabetic wound healing via miR-145-5p/ CDKN1A-mediated functional improvements of high glucose-induced senescent fibroblasts.

Background: Persistent hyperglycaemia in diabetes causes functional abnormalities of human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs), partially leading to delayed skin wound healing. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) containing multiple pro-healing microRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to exert therapeutic effects on diabetic wound healing. The present study aimed to observe the effects of EVs derived from placental mesenchymal stem cells (P-MSC-EVs) on diabetic wound healing and high glucose (HG)-induced senescent fibroblasts and to explore the underlying mechanisms. Methods: P-MSC-EVs were isolated by differential ultracentrifugation and locally injected into the full-thickness skin wounds of diabetic mice, to observe the beneficial effects on wound healing in vivo by measuring wound closure rates and histological analysis. Next, a series of assays were conducted to evaluate the effects of low (2.28 x 1010 particles/ml) and high (4.56 x 1010 particles/ml) concentrations of P-MSC-EVs on the senescence, proliferation, migration, and apoptosis of HG-induced senescent HDFs in vitro. Then, miRNA microarrays and real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) were carried out to detect the differentially expressed miRNAs in HDFs after EVs treatment. Specific RNA inhibitors, miRNA mimics, and small interfering RNA (siRNA) were used to evaluate the role of a candidate miRNA and its target genes in P-MSC-EV-induced improvements in the function of HG-induced senescent HDFs. Results: Local injection of P-MSC-EVs into diabetic wounds accelerated wound closure and reduced scar widths, with better-organized collagen deposition and decreased p16INK4a expression. In vitro, P-MSC-EVs enhanced the antisenescence, proliferation, migration, and antiapoptotic abilities of HG-induced senescent fibroblasts in a dose-dependent manner. MiR-145-5p was found to be highly enriched in P-MSC-EVs. MiR-145-5p inhibitors effectively attenuated the P-MSC-EV-induced functional improvements of senescent fibroblasts. MiR-145-5p mimics simulated the effects of P-MSC-EVs on functional improvements of fibroblasts by suppressing the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A and activating the extracellular signal regulated kinase (Erk)/protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway. Furthermore, local application of miR-145-5p agomir mimicked the effects of P-MSC-EVs on wound healing. Conclusions: These results suggest that P-MSC-EVs accelerate diabetic wound healing by improving the function of senescent fibroblasts through the transfer of miR-145-5p, which targets cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A to activate the Erk/Akt signaling pathway. P-MSC-EVs are promising therapeutic candidates for diabetic wound treatment.

Biological interactions of polystyrene nanoplastics: Their cytotoxic and immunotoxic effects on the hepatic and enteric systems.

As emerging pollutants in the environment, nanoplastics (NPs) can cross biological barriers and be enriched in organisms, posing a greatest threat to the health of livestock and humans. However, the size-dependent toxic effects of NPs in higher mammals remain largely unknown. To determine the size-dependent potential toxicities of NPs, we exposed mouse (AML-12) and human (L02) liver cell lines in vitro, and 6-week-old C57BL/6 mice (well-known preclinical model) in vivo to five different sizes of polystyrene NPs (PS-NPs) (20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 nm). We found that ultra-small NPs (20 nm) induced the highest cytotoxicity in mouse and human liver cell lines, causing oxidative stress and mitochondrial membrane potential loss on AML-12 cells. Unexpectedly in vivo, after long-term oral exposure to PS-NPs (75 mg/kg), medium NPs (200 nm) and large NPs (500 nm) induced significant hepatotoxicity, evidenced by increased oxidative stress, liver dysfunction, and lipid metabolism disorders. Most importantly, medium or large NPs generated local immunotoxic effects via recruiting and activating more numbers of neutrophils and monocytes in the liver or intestine, which potentially resulted in increased proinflammatory cytokine secretion and the tissue damage. The discrepancy in in vitro-in vivo toxic results might be attributed to the different properties of biodistribution and tissue accumulation of different sized NPs in vivo. Our study provides new insights regarding the hepatotoxicity and immunotoxicity of NPs on human and livestock health, warranting us to take immense measures to prevent these NPs-associated health damage.

Autophagosomes Defeat Ferroptosis by Decreasing Generation and Increasing Discharge of Free Fe2+ in Skin Repair Cells to Accelerate Diabetic Wound Healing.

Ferroptosis plays an essential role in the development of diabetes and its complications, suggesting potential therapeutic strategies targeting ferroptosis. Secretory autophagosomes (SAPs) carrying cytoplasmic cargoes have been recognized as novel nano-warrior to defeat diseases. Here, it is hypothesized that SAPs derived from human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) can restore the function of skin repair cells by inhibiting ferroptosis to promote diabetic wound healing. High glucose (HG)-caused ferroptosis in human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) is observed in vitro, which results in impaired cellular function. SAPs successfully inhibit ferroptosis in HG-HDFs, thereby improving their proliferation and migration. Further research show that the inhibitory effect of SAPs on ferroptosis resulted from a decrease in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-regulated generation of free ferrous ions (Fe2+ ) in HG-HDFs and an increase in exosome release to discharge free Fe2+ from HG-HDFs. Additionally, SAPs promote the proliferation, migration, and tube formation of HG-HUVECs. Then the SAPs are loaded into gelatin-methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogels to fabricate functional wound dressings. The results demonstrate the therapeutic effect of Gel-SAPs on diabetic wounds by restoring the normal behavior of skin repair cells. These findings suggest a promising SAP-based strategy for the treatment of ferroptosis-associated diseases.

Global trends in research of high-throughput sequencing technology associated with chronic wounds from 2002 to 2022: A bibliometric and visualized study.

Background: Chronic wounds are a complex medical problem. With the difficulty of skin healing, the microbial ecology of chronic wounds is an essential factor affecting wound healing. High-throughput sequencing (HTS) technology is a vital method to reveal the microbiome diversity and population structure of chronic wounds. Objective: The aim of this paper was to delineate the scientific output characteristics, research trends, hotspots and frontiers of HTS technologies related to chronic wounds globally over the past 20 years. Methods: We searched the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database for articles published between 2002 and 2022 and their full record information. The Bibliometrix software package was used to analyze bibliometric indicators and VOSviewer visualization analysis results. Results: Ultimately, a total of 449 original articles were reviewed, and the results showed that the number of annual publications (Nps) about HTS associated with chronic wounds has steadily increased over the last 20 years. The United States and China produce the most articles and have the highest H-index, while the United States and England have the largest number of citations (Nc) in this field. The University of California, Wound Repair and Regeneration and National Institutes of Health Nih United States were the most published institutions, journals and fund resources, respectively. The global research could be divided into 3 clusters as follows: microbial infection of chronic wounds, the healing process of wounds and microscopic processes, skin repair mechanism stimulated by antimicrobial peptides and oxidative stress. In recent years, "wound healing", "infections", "expression", "inflammation", "chronic wounds", "identification" and "bacteria" "angiogenesis", "biofilms" and "diabetes" were the most frequently used keywords. In addition, research on "prevalence", "gene expression", "inflammation" and "infection" has recently become a hotspot. Conclusions: This paper compares the research hotspots and directions in this field globally from the perspectives of countries, institutions and authors, analyzes the trend of international cooperation, and reveals the future development direction of the field and research hotspots of great scientific research value. Through this paper, we can further explore the value of HTS technology in chronic wounds to better solve the problem of chronic wounds.

MiR146a-loaded engineered exosomes released from silk fibroin patch promote diabetic wound healing by targeting IRAK1.

Unhealable diabetic wounds need to be addressed with the help of newer, more efficacious strategies. Exosomes combined with biomaterials for sustained delivery of therapeutic agents are expected to bring new hope for chronic wound treatment. Here, the engineered exosomes modified for efficiently loading miR146a and attaching to silk fibroin patch (SFP) were demonstrated to promote diabetic wound healing. Silk fibroin binding peptide (SFBP) was screened through phage display, and SFBP-Gluc-MS2 (SGM) and pac-miR146a-pac fusion protein were constructed. The designed exosomes (SGM-Exos, miR146a-Exos, and SGM-miR146a-Exos) were isolated from the engineered placental mesenchymal stem cells (PMSCs) transduced with SGM or/and pac-miR146a-pac protein. Gluc signals indicated SGM-Exo@SFP markedly increased the binding rate and the stability of SGM-Exo. Moreover, the loading efficiency of miR146a in SGM-miR146a-Exos was ten-fold higher than that in miR146a-Exos. Superior to untreated, SGM-miR146a-Exo-only treated, and SFP-only treated groups, SGM-miR146a-Exo@SFP drived wound healing associated with less inflammation, collagen deposition, and neovascularization. The transcriptomics analysis suggested anti-inflammatory and regenerative effects with SGM-miR146a-Exo@SFP treatment. Here, we show efficient exosome@biomaterial-based miRNA delivery systems for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering.

VH298-loaded extracellular vesicles released from gelatin methacryloyl hydrogel facilitate diabetic wound healing by HIF-1α-mediated enhancement of angiogenesis.

Endothelial malfunction is responsible for impaired angiogenesis in diabetic patients, thereby causing the delayed healing progress of diabetic wounds. Exosomes or extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as potential therapeutic vectors carrying drug cargoes to diseased cells. In the present study, EVs were reported as a new treatment for diabetic wounds by delivering VH298 into endothelial cells. Firstly, EVs derived from epidermal stem cells (ESCs) were loaded with VH298 (VH-EVs), and the characteristics of VH-EVs were identified. VH-EVs showed promotive action on the function of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in vitro by activating HIF-1α signaling pathway. VH-EVs were also found to have a therapeutic effect on wound healing and angiogenesis in vivo. We further fabricated gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel for sustained release of VH-EVs, which possessed high biocompatibility and proper mechanical properties. In diabetic mice, GelMA hydrogel containing VH-EVs (Gel-VH-EVs) effectively promoted wound healing by locally enhancing blood supply and angiogenesis. The underlying mechanism for enhanced angiogenesis was possibly associated with the activation of HIF-1α/VEGFA signaling pathway. Collectively, our findings suggest a promising EV-based strategy for the VH298 delivery to endothelial cells and provide a new bioactive dressing for diabetic wound treatment. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The angiogenic dysfunction is the main cause of diabetic wound unhealing. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been reported to be helpful but their efficacy is limited for angiogenesis in cutaneous regeneration. VH298 holds great promise to improve angiogenesis by stabilizing HIF-1α which is reported at low level in diabetic wounds. Here, we loaded EVs with VH298 (VH-EVs) to exert an on-target enhancement of proangiogenic capacity in diabetic wound. Then, we applied a photo-crosslinkable hydrogel, gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) containing VH-EVs (Gel-VH-EVs) as a convenient biomaterial and an adaptable scaffold for sustained releasing VH-EVs. The results showed significant therapeutic effect of Gel-VH-EVs on skin defect repair. Our findings suggest a promising EVs-based drug delivery strategy and a new functional wound dressing for patients.

Photobiomodulation Therapy With Different Wavebands for Hair Loss: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

BACKGROUND: Photobiomodulation is a promising therapy for hair loss with negligible side effects. However, the reported effects of photobiomodulation therapy for hair loss are inconsistent. OBJECTIVE: To assess the curative effect of photobiomodulation therapy for the treatment of hair loss. METHODS: A systematic review of self-controlled studies and randomized controlled trials was conducted. ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Wiley Online Library were searched from the earliest date to May 30, 2021. RESULTS: Thirty-six studies (966 patients) were included. Two to 4 meta-analyses with different indices were performed separately on 4 groups of studies to test the effectiveness of the following hair loss treatments: ultraviolet light for alopecia areata (AA), red light for androgenetic alopecia (AGA), infrared light for AA, and infrared light for AGA. All meta-analyses showed that treatments were superior to control ( p < .05). CONCLUSION: The meta-analyses strongly suggested that photobiomodulation therapies with ultraviolet and infrared light were effective for treating AA, and photobiomodulation therapies with red light and infrared light were effective for treating AGA.

Photobiomodulation promotes hair regeneration in injured skin by enhancing migration and exosome secretion of dermal papilla cells.

The application of photobiomodulation (PBM) in regenerative medicine has expanded to the treatment of alopecia caused by various reasons. However, the mechanisms responsible for its effects are poorly understood. Here, we aimed to investigate the effects of PBM on hair regeneration in injured skin and to explore the underlying mechanisms. The scratched epidermis or dermis models were established in C57 mice aged 7-8 weeks. We found that the scratched epidermis had no influence on hair regeneration, but the scratched dermis led to obvious hair follicle atrophy and significantly influenced hair regeneration. The wounds in scratched dermis models were treated with PBM (655 nm, 3 J/cm2 [10 min]) and the hair regeneration and cell proliferation in hair follicle were evaluated. Compared with control, the hair coverage level was significantly enhanced after PBM treatment. Sox9+ and PCNA+ cells in hair follicle were obviously observed in PBM-treated group, but not in control. In vitro, the effects of PBM on the function of dermal papilla cells (DPCs) were investigated. The results showed that the migration of DPCs was increased significantly by PBM (655 nm, 3 J/cm2 [10 min]), whereas no effect was found on proliferation. Furthermore, we found that PBM promoted exosome secretion of DPCs, accompanied by the activation of Akt/GSK-3ß/ß-catenin pathway. AKT inhibitor MK-2206 effectively blocked PBM-induced migration and exosome secretion of DPCs. These findings suggest that the enhanced migration and exosome secretion of DPCs mediated by the Akt/GSK-3ß/ß-catenin pathway were responsible for the promotion of hair regeneration in injured skin by PBM.

Small extracellular vesicles from mesenchymal stem cells: A potential Weapon for chronic non-healing wound treatment.

Chronic non-healing wounds have posed a severe threat to patients mentally and physically. Behavior dysregulation of remaining cells at wound sites is recognized as the chief culprit to destroy healing process and hinders wound healing. Therefore, regulating and restoring normal cellular behavior is the core of chronic non-healing wound treatment. In recent years, the therapy with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has become a promising option for chronic wound healing and the efficacy has increasingly been attributed to their exocrine functions. Small extracellular vesicles derived from MSCs (MSC-sEVs) are reported to benefit almost all stages of wound healing by regulating the cellular behavior to participate in the process of inflammatory response, angiogenesis, re-epithelization, and scarless healing. Here, we describe the characteristics of MSC-sEVs and discuss their therapeutic potential in chronic wound treatment. Additionally, we also provide an overview of the application avenues of MSC-sEVs in wound treatment. Finally, we summarize strategies for large-scale production and engineering of MSC-sEVs. This review may possibly provide meaningful guidance for chronic wound treatment with MSC-sEVs.

A Fluorescent Sensor-Assisted Paper-Based Competitive Lateral Flow Immunoassay for the Rapid and Sensitive Detection of Ampicillin in Hospital Wastewater.

In this study, a convenient assay method has been developed based on labeled functional nucleic acids (H-DNA) and a competitive fluorescent lateral flow immunoassay (CF-LFI) for ampicillin (AMP) detection. Herein, we designed the tunable AMP probes for AMP detection based on the AMP aptamer, and the secondary DNA fragment. The probes can generate tunable signals on the test line (T line) and control line (C line) according to the concentration of AMP. The accuracy of detection was improved by optimizing the tunable AMP probes. Under the optimal conditions, the linear concentration of AMP detection is ranged from 10 to 200 ng/L with a limit of quantitation (LOQ) value of 2.71 ng/L, and the recovery is higher than 80.5 %. Moreover, the developed method shows the potential application for AMP detection in the hospital wastewater.

Using pH-Activable Carbon Nanoparticles as Cell Imaging Probes.

Herein, we demonstrate the fabrication of innovative pH-activable carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) based on urea and citric acid by microwave-assisted green synthesis for application in cell imaging. These CNP-based nanoprobes offer significant advantages of pH responsiveness and excellent biocompatibility. The pH responsiveness ranges from 1.0 to 4.6 and the slightly pH responsiveness ranges from 4.6 to 9.0. In addition, the pH-dependent modification of charge as well as the final diameter of the designed CNPs not only provide support as stable sensors for cell imaging under pH values from 4.6 to 9.0, but can also observe the pH change in cells from 1.0 to 4.6. Importantly, this significantly enhances the cellular internalization process resulting in tumor cell death. Together, we believe that these superior photoluminescence properties of our designed nanomaterials potentially allow for biological labeling, bioimaging, and drug delivery applications.

Luminescent carbon nanodots based aptasensors for rapid detection of kanamycin residue.

Despite the success in long-term storage of food and dietary products using antibiotics as supplements, enormous levels of their residues have remained as a significant health concern, leading to severe toxicity issues on consumption. Herein, we report an ultrasensitive and highly selective aptasensor based on carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) through a fluorescence-based aptamer-linked immunosorbent assay (FALIA) for rapid detection of kanamycin (KAA) residue. The fabricated CNP-aptasensor exhibited superior selectivity with exceptional photoluminescence properties. Under the optimal conditions, the linear equation of standard KAA solution was Y = -0.2279LogX+1.3648 (R = -0.9893) ranged from 10-4 to 10-7 ppb with excellent relative standard deviations (RSD) between 3.12 and 5.59 % (n = 3). Moreover, the limit of detection (LOD) was lower than 5.0 × 10-8 ppb. Together, the excellent recovery and significant efficacy in the rapid detection of antibiotics at a low level in milk indicate that this fabricated CNP-aptasensor has a great potential in the establishment of an efficient antibiotic detector system in food and other nutraceutical industries.

Dual-Responsive Alginate Hydrogels for Controlled Release of Therapeutics.

In this work, with the drug oxytetracycline (OTC) released, cell cytotoxicity and antimicrobial studies of dual-responsive sodium alginate and N-Isopropylacrylamide hydrogels (SA/pNIPAAm) with enclosed OTC were investigated. The molecular OTC release was explored with different acid-base conditions and temperature conditions. In order to characterize cell cytotoxicity and antimicrobial efficacy, time-dependent OTC release analysis of different acid-base conditions was performed in SA/pNIPAAm hydrogels. OTC@SA/pNIPAAm hydrogels showed excellent time-dependent antimicrobial efficacy, in which the IC50 values were 50.11 µg mL-1, 34.27 µg mL-1, and 22.39 µg mL-1 among three consecutive days, respectively. Meanwhile, the human cells showed excellent viability at the IC50 dosage of OTC@SA/pNIPAAm (50.11 µg mL-1). OTC@SA/pNIPAAm performed in this study indicated that SA/pNIPAAm may serve as drug carriers for sustainable release at a specific concentration and for being employed as substrates for decreasing drug toxicity. Besides, pH-responsive and thermos-responsive SA/pNIPAAm may lead to the better selectivity of drug release in the ideal location or site. Finally, the results demonstrate that the designed, dual-responsive, biocompatible OTC@SA/pNIPAAm hydrogels showed excellent antimicrobial efficacy and may potentially be found to have enormous applicability in the field of pharmaceutics.

Self-Assembly of Functional Nucleic Acid-Based Colorimetric Competition Assay for the Detection of Immunoglobulin E.

In this work, we have developed a simple and rapid colorimetric assay for the detection of immunoglobulin E (IgE) using functional nucleic acids (FNAs) and a solid-phase competition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The FNAs including aptamer of recombinant IgE, G-quadruplex and its complementary fragments were immobilized on 96-well microplates to achieve recognition and detection of IgE in biological samples. The G-quadruplex DNAzyme catalyzed 2,2'-Azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS)-hemin-H2O2 system was used to improve the sensitivity of colorimetric assay. In the presence of IgE, the hairpin structure and G-quadruplex would be destroyed, resulting in the inactivation of DNAzyme and subsequent reduction of its absorbance. This cost-effective approach detected IgE in the linear range from 5.0 pg/mL to 500 ng/mL, with the limit of detection (LOD) of 2.0 pg/mL, under optimal conditions. Moreover, the developed method was successfully applied to the rapid detection of IgE in human urine, indicating a great potentiality of this approach in clinical diagnosis and other biomedical applications.

Carbon nanoparticles with oligonucleotide probes for a label-free sensitive antibiotic residues detection based on competitive analysis.

Carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) have been combined with aptamer, providing a broad application in small molecule. CNPs can be quenched by small molecules and are usually applied as luminescent probes because of their photophysical characteristics. In this work, we developed a competitive analysis for antibiotic residues detection based on carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) and oligonucleotide probes. Oligonucleotide probes including oxytetracycline (OTC) aptamer was exploited for recognition OTC and was used to restore the luminescence. Tetracycline (TC), as a competitor of OTC, was utilized to quench the luminescence of CNPs and reduce the sample matrix effect. Under optimal conditions, the linear rang of OTC was 0.010~1.0 ng/mL with the relative standard deviations (RSDs) from 2.91% to 11.3%, and the limit of detection (LOD) was low to 0.002 ng/mL. Moreover, the proposal was successfully applied to analyze OTC from drink water, indicating that this approach has great potential for other small molecule analysis.
