Given a passage, construct a question on the basis of the information present in the passage. Construct the question in such a way that (i) it is unambiguous, (ii) it is answerable from the passage, (iii) its answer is unique (iv) it answer uses text phrases from the passage. Avoid creating questions that (i) can't be answered correctly without actually understanding the passage and (ii) uses the same words or phrases given in the passage.

Construction of electrochemical impedance sensors by the self-assembly technique has become a promising strategy for the 'label-free' detection of protein-ligand interactions. However, previous impedance sensors are devoid of an inherent electrochemical signal, which limits the standardization of the sensors for protein recognition in a reproducible manner.", "We designed and synthesized an anthraquinonyl glycoside (AG) where the anthraquinone (AQ) moiety can bind to the surface of a graphene-based working electrode while the glycoside serving as a ligand for lectin. By measuring the inherent voltammetric signal of AQ, the glycosides decorated on the working electrode could be simply quantified to obtain electrodes with a unified signal window. Subsequently, impedance analysis showed that the 'standardized' electrodes gave a reproducible electrochemical response to a selective lectin with no signal variation in the presence of unselective proteins.

Ex Output:
Does anthraquinonyl glycoside facilitate the standardization of graphene electrodes for the impedance detection of lectins?

Induced sputum analyses are widely utilized to evaluate airway inflammation in asthmatics. However, the values have not been examined in Korean adults.', 'The purpose of this study is to determine reference ranges for induced sputum eosinophils and their influencing factors in Korean adults.', 'A total of 208 healthy nonasthmatic adults were recruited. Sputum induction and processing followed the international standard protocols.', 'Adequate sputum samples were successfully collected from 81 subjects (38.9%). The upper 90 percentile for sputum eosinophil was calculated as 3.5%. The median value of eosinophil count percentage was significantly higher in subjects with atopy than those without atopy (median, 1.6%; range, 0-11.0% vs. median, 0%; range 0-3.6%, p=0.030). However, no significant correlations were found with age, gender, body mass index, smoking status, blood eosinophil, or fractional exhaled nitric oxide levels.

Ex Output:
Does reference range for induced sputum eosinophil counts in Korean adult population?


Ex Input:
In uraemia there is a reduction in the total number of T lymphocytes and an imbalance in the ratio of Th1/Th2 T-helper (Th) lymphocytes. A higher rate of apoptosis in T lymphocytes has been reported in haemodialysis patients. The aims of the present study were to assess the Th1/Th2 pattern in uraemia and to evaluate whether a relative increase in Th1 apoptosis may explain the Th1/Th2 imbalance observed in uraemic patients.', 'Seventeen non-dialysed uraemic patients were evaluated; eight healthy volunteers served as controls. Intracellular interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) were measured by direct intracellular immunofluorescence and flow cytometry. Apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry using annexin V or TUNEL. Mechanisms of apoptosis were assessed by determination of Fas and Bcl-2 expression.', 'Cell production of cytokines is significantly higher in uraemic patients than in controls. In addition, in uraemic patients only 5.1+/-2.1% of the T lymphocytes contained IFN-gamma (Th1 cells) while 61.9 +/- 14.8% contained IL-4 (Th2 cells) (P < 0.0001). The percentage of apoptosis was 29.6 +/- 6.3% and 4.7 +/- 1.6% in Th1 and Th2 lymphocytes, respectively (P < 0.001). Fas expression was higher in Th1 than in Th2 cells and the expression of Bcl-2 was lower in Th1 than in Th2 cells. The apoptosis induced by anti-Fas antibodies was similar in both types of lymphocytes.

Ex Output:

Is the imbalance in the ratio of Th1 and Th2 helper lymphocytes in uraemia mediated by an increased apoptosis of Th1 subset?
