Research Background The Aedes aegypti mosquito is a primary vector for arboviruses such as dengue and Zika. Current genetic control strategies relying on the release of non-biting males (e.g., Sterile Insect Technique, SIT, or Wolbachia-based Incompatible Insect Technique, IIT) face a critical bottleneck: how to efficiently and cost-effectively iso...
Academic Background In recent years, multiple outbreaks caused by coronaviruses have occurred globally, such as SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome), MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome), and COVID-19 (Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia). These pandemics have not only posed a serious threat to human health but also exposed the inadequacy of emergen...
Research Background Nosocomial infections are a common and serious problem in healthcare settings, particularly on reusable medical devices, where cross-contamination and biofilm formation are major causes. To address this challenge, researchers have begun exploring the use of coating materials containing metallic nanoparticles to prevent microbial...
Synthesis and Study of Antimicrobial and Magnetic Properties of ZnFeCrO4 Nanoferrite Academic Background Nanoferrites, due to their unique physical and chemical properties, have broad application prospects in various industrial fields. Spinel ferrites, in particular, are highly regarded for their tunable structures, making them attractive for use i...
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is a γ-herpesvirus that primarily infects endothelial cells and leads to the development of Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS), especially in people living with HIV. Kaposi’s sarcoma is a malignant tumor characterized by endothelial cell proliferation, typically presenting as cutaneous lesions. After infecting endo...
Academic Background Ulcerative Colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease characterized by recurrent inflammation and ulceration of the colonic mucosa. Current treatments for UC primarily rely on immunosuppressive drugs, such as corticosteroids, immunomodulators, and biologics. However, the immunosuppressive properties of these drugs incr...
