Machine learning (ML) on structural MRI data shows high potential for classifying Alzheimer’s disease (AD) progression, but the specific contribution of brain regions, demographics, and proteinopathy remains unclear. Using Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) data, we applied an extreme gradient-boosting algorithm and SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) values to classify cognitively normal (CN) older adults, those with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and AD dementia patients. Features included structural MRI, CSF status, demographics, and genetic data. Analyses comprised one cross-sectional multi-class classification (CN vs. MCI vs. AD dementia, n = 568) and two longitudinal binary-class classifications (CN-to-MCI converters vs. CN stable, n = 92; MCI-to-AD converters vs. MCI stable, n = 378). All classifications achieved 70–77% accuracy and 61–83% precision. Key features were CSF status, hippocampal volume, entorhinal thickness, and amygdala volume, with a clear dissociation: hippocampal properties contributed to the conversion to MCI, while the entorhinal cortex characterized the conversion to AD dementia. The findings highlight explainable, trajectory-specific insights into AD progression.

QTL mapping and whole-genome sequencing analysis for novel genetic resources associated with sucrose content in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] - Dongho Lee; Tri D. Vuong; James G. Shannon; Qijian Song; Feng Lin; Henry T. Nguyen (Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2025)
Key message A major QTL for sucrose content was mapped on chromosome 8 in PI 506593. The novel genetic variants and candidate genes were further identified within the major QTL. Abstract Sucrose in soybean [ Glycine max (L.) Merr.] contribute to animal feed efficiency and natural sweetness of soy products. Thus, identifying novel genetic resources, such as quantitative trait loci (QTL), associated with sucrose content in soybean is essential for enhancing seed values. In this study, two recombinant inbred line populations derived from the same high sucrose donor parent, PI 506593, were used to identify significant QTLs. A total of 11 sucrose-related regions on chromosomes (Chrs.) 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, and 13 were identified using QTL analysis. Among them, four QTLs ( qSUC_08.1 , qSUC_08.2 , qSUC_08.3 , and qSUC_08.4 ) were clustered in the interval of 40,597,410–42,861,364 bp on Chr. 8, which was considered major QTL region. A desirable marker at 41,834,095 bp was tested in two populations, showing that two phenotypically extreme groups were efficiently differentiated. We further identified 44 and 54 candidate genes with non-synonymous mutations in the major QTL region based on the annotations of Wm82.a2.v1 and Wm82.a5.v1 assemblies, respectively. Among 54 candidate genes from Wm82.a5.v1, Protein Variation Effect Analyzer (PROVEAN) revealed that 18 genes contained 34 variants that had deleterious impacts on biological functions. RNA-seq analysis highlighted five candidate genes that were highly expressed in pod and seed tissues during reproductive stages and other plant parts. A gene, Gm_Wm82_23219 ( Glyma.08G293800 , Wm82.a2.v1) encoding proline-rich protein 4-like, was highlighted in both PROVEAN and RNA-seq analyses. Novel findings in this study will be valuable genetic resources in soybean breeding programs that aim to improve efficiency in animal feed and human food.

Better objective sleep quality is associated with higher gut microbiota richness in older adults - Maria Teresa Wijaya; Ji-Tseng Fang; Geng-Hao Liu; Yuan-Ming Yeh; Ning-Hung Chen; Chih-Ming Lin; Kuain-Yi Wu; Chih-Mao Huang; Shwu-Hua Lee; Tatia M. C. Lee (GeroScience, 2025)
Aging is associated with disrupted sleep patterns, such as fragmented sleep and reduced efficiency, leading to negative health outcomes. There is evidence of a bidirectional relationship between sleep and gut microbiota, which plays a key role in the gut-brain axis and overall health. However, studies on this relationship in older adults have limited generalizability and show conflicting results, highlighting the need for further research. This study aimed to investigate the associations between sleep quality and gut microbiota composition in healthy Chinese older adults using subjective and objective sleep measures to capture various aspects of sleep quality and explore potential impacts on emotional well-being and cognitive performance. Subjective sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire, while objective sleep quality was measured with actigraphy. Gut microbiota sequencing was performed on stool samples. The results show a robust positive association between gut microbiota richness and objective sleep quality in older adults, independent of subjective sleep quality and demographics, lifestyle, and health covariates. However, no significant link was found between gut microbiota richness and subjective sleep quality. Specific taxa like Bacteroidetes, Ruminococcus , Collinsella , Veillonella , and Holdemania were tentatively linked to sleep quality. These findings emphasize the connection between sleep quality and gut microbiota composition in older adults with potential research and clinical implications, improving our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the sleep-gut microbiota relationship and guiding the development of interventions for improving both sleep quality and gut health in older adults.

The regional sea level budget and interannual sea level changes around Taiwan and Philippines are studied using altimetry, GRACE, and in-situ hydrographic data during 1993‒2021. Results show that the average sea level trend around Taiwan and Philippines during 1993–2021 derived from the altimetric data is 3.6 ± 0.2 mm/yr. Over 2002–2021, the study shows closure of sea level budget in the eastern ocean of Taiwan and Philippines within the observed data uncertainties, and the ocean mass accounts for 88%–100% of the observed sea level rise. In contrast, the sea level budget is not closed in the western ocean of Taiwan and Philippines, probably due to the lack of complete coverage by in-situ ocean observing systems. In addition, both regional sea level anomalies and their steric component around Taiwan and Philippines exhibit pronounced interannual and decadal variabilities. The trade wind stress associated with El Niño–Southern Oscillation and Pacific Decadal Oscillation offers a compelling explanation for the interannual and decadal signals of sea level anomalies in the southern ocean of Taiwan, with negative correlations of − 0.78 to − 0.64, indicating that trade wind stress makes a negative contribution to interannual-to-decadal sea level variability. In the northwestern ocean of Taiwan, the sea level variation is strongly influenced by the local monsoon system and shallow bathymetry with an annual amplitude of 90.3 ± 2.9 mm, larger than those in other regions around Taiwan and Philippines, where ocean mass is dominant with a high correlation with the sea level (+ 0.75 to + 0.78).

Background Meningioma, the most common primary brain tumor, presents significant challenges in MRI-based diagnosis and treatment planning due to its diverse manifestations. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have shown promise in improving the accuracy and efficiency of meningioma segmentation from MRI scans. This systematic review and meta-analysis assess the effectiveness of CNN models in segmenting meningioma using MRI. Methods Following the PRISMA guidelines, we searched PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science from their inception to December 20, 2023, to identify studies that used CNN models for meningioma segmentation in MRI. Methodological quality of the included studies was assessed using the CLAIM and QUADAS-2 tools. The primary variable was segmentation accuracy, which was evaluated using the Sørensen–Dice coefficient. Meta-analysis, subgroup analysis, and meta-regression were performed to investigate the effects of MRI sequence, CNN architecture, and training dataset size on model performance. Results Nine studies, comprising 4,828 patients, were included in the analysis. The pooled Dice score across all studies was 89% (95% CI: 87–90%). Internal validation studies yielded a pooled Dice score of 88% (95% CI: 85–91%), while external validation studies reported a pooled Dice score of 89% (95% CI: 88–90%). Models trained on multiple MRI sequences consistently outperformed those trained on single sequences. Meta-regression indicated that training dataset size did not significantly influence segmentation accuracy. Conclusion CNN models are highly effective for meningioma segmentation in MRI, particularly during the use of diverse datasets from multiple MRI sequences. This finding highlights the importance of data quality and imaging sequence selection in the development of CNN models. Standardization of MRI data acquisition and preprocessing may improve the performance of CNN models, thereby facilitating their clinical adoption for the optimal diagnosis and treatment of meningioma.

An Anisotropic Thermal–Mechanical Coupling Failure Criterion for Slate - Meng-Chia Weng; Shih-Shiang Lin; Chih-Shan Lee; Wei-Han Wu; Jia Han Li; Chih-Hsi Liu (Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering, 2024)
This study investigates the thermal–mechanical behavior of slates in geothermal reservoirs and establishes an anisotropic thermal–mechanical coupling failure criterion. Slate samples obtained from a geothermal site were subjected to a series of direct-shear and triaxial-compression tests at various confining pressures and temperatures. The results showed that the orientation angle within a specific range caused shear sliding failure of the slate, primarily due to foliation strength; beyond this range, intrinsic rock properties led to different failure modes. Elevated temperatures significantly diminished the strength anisotropy of the slate. These findings provided a foundation for the development of an anisotropic thermal–mechanical coupling failure criterion. The validity of the proposed criterion, which incorporates both the orientation angle and thermal degradation effects, was demonstrated through experimental results. A three-dimensional surface diagram was constructed to visualize the relationship between the temperature, orientation angle, and failure principal stress, highlighting the anisotropic thermal-degradation characteristics of the slate under varying confining pressures. This study enhances the understanding of the thermal–mechanical behavior of these materials in geothermal reservoirs.

Fann; Kai-Cheng Hsu; Jiunn-Tay Lee (Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing, 2024)
Accurately predicting the prognosis of ischemic stroke patients after discharge is crucial for physicians to plan for long-term health care. Although previous studies have demonstrated that machine learning (ML) shows reasonably accurate stroke outcome predictions with limited datasets, to identify specific clinical features associated with prognosis changes after stroke that could aid physicians and patients in devising improved recovery care plans have been challenging. This study aimed to overcome these gaps by utilizing a large national stroke registry database to assess various prediction models that estimate how patients’ prognosis changes over time with associated clinical factors. To properly evaluate the best predictive approaches currently available and avoid prejudice, this study employed three different prognosis prediction models including a statistical logistic regression model, commonly used clinical-based scores, and a latest high-performance ML-based XGBoost model. The study revealed that the XGBoost model outperformed other two traditional models, achieving an AUROC of 0.929 in predicting the prognosis changes of stroke patients followed for 3 months. In addition, the XGBoost model maintained remarkably high precision even when using only selected 20 most relevant clinical features compared to full clinical datasets used in the study. These selected features closely correlated with significant changes in clinical outcomes for stroke patients and showed to be effective for predicting prognosis changes after discharge, allowing physicians to make optimal decisions regarding their patients’ recovery.

Losing Tidal Flats at the Midpoint of the East Asian-Australasian Flyway over the past 100 Years - Wan-Jyun Chen; An-Yu Chang; Chia-Chi Lin; Ruey-Shing Lin; Da-Li Lin; Pei-Fen Lee (Wetlands, 2024)
The ecosystem services and functions of tidal flats have been overlooked for many decades, and tidal flat loss has been identified as a serious threat to many taxa in recent years, especially for migratory waterbirds. Despite the understanding of tidal flats change on the global scale, there are still a lot of unknowns on the small scale, including tidal flats in Taiwan, which are important stopover sites for migratory waterbirds along the East Asian–Australasian Flyway. Therefore, we collated historic topographic maps, Landsat Archive images between the 1920s and the 2020s to determine the trajectories of tidal flat change along the coastline of Taiwan. Our results show that tidal flat coverage expanded between the 1920s and the 1950s, but lost approximately 266 km 2 (58%) between the 1950s and the 2010s. The status of the tidal flats along the western coastline of Taiwan has been identified as “Endangered” based on the criteria of the IUCN Red List of Ecosystems. According to the aims of the Global Biodiversity Framework, we suggest rethinking the land use plans along the coastline to mitigate the tidal flat loss, especially the controversial issues concerning the expansion of green energy infrastructure. To realize the Nature Positive goals by 2030, recovering and restoring the tidal flat ecosystem could be one of the key strategies.

Columnar aerosol types and compositions over peninsular Southeast Asia based on long-term AERONET data - Sheng-Hsiang Wang; Hsiang-Yu Huang; Che-Hsuan Lin; Shantanu Kumar Pani; Neng-Huei Lin; Chung-Te Lee; Serm Janjai; Brent N. Holben; Somporn Chantara (Air Quality, Atmosphere & Health, 2024)
Aerosol chemical components such as black carbon (BC) and brown carbon (BrC) regulate aerosol optical properties, which in turn drive the atmospheric radiative forcing estimations due to aerosols. In this study, we used the long-term measurements from AERONET (Aerosol Robotic Network) to better understand the aerosol types and composition with respect to their seasonal and spatial variabilities in peninsular Southeast Asia (PSEA, here defined as Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar). Two methods (i.e., aerosol type cluster and aerosol component retrieval) were applied to determine the aerosol type and chemical composition during the biomass-burning (BB) season. AERONET sites in northern PSEA showed a higher AOD (aerosol optical depth) compared to that of southern PSEA. Differences in land use pattern, geographic location, and weather regime caused much of the aerosol variability over PSEA. Lower single-scattering albedo (SSA) and higher fine-mode fraction (FMF) values were observed in February and March, suggesting the predominance of BB type aerosols with finer and stronger absorbing particles during the dry season. However, we also found that the peak BB month (i.e., March) in northern PSEA may not coincide with the lowest SSA once dust particles have mixed with the other aerosols. Furthermore, we investigated two severe BB events in March of 2014 and 2015, revealing a significant BrC fraction during BB event days. On high AOD days, although the BC fraction was high, the BrC fraction remained low due to lack of aerosol aging. This study highlights the dominance of carbonaceous aerosols in the PSEA atmosphere during the BB season, while also revealing that transported dust particles and BrC aerosol aging may introduce uncertainties into the aerosol radiative forcing calculation.

(1) Background: Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa) is a flowering plant reported to have anti-obesity, antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory effects. This study aims to evaluate the UV-absorbing and antioxidant activities of roselle aqueous extracts (RAE) and test the protective effects of RAE against UV radiation in zebrafish embryos. (2) Methods: DPPH assay and UV-spectrum methods were applied to evaluate the antioxidant and UV-absorbing activities, respectively. The protective effects of RAE were evaluated using fin morphology recording, Kaplan–Meier analysis, and Cox proportional hazards regression. Real-time PCR experiments were also applied to detect both the UV- and RAE-induced gene expressions. (3) Results: Our results show that (i) RAE had UV-absorbing abilities and significantly reduced ROS production in vitro; (ii) the mean times of malformed fins in the UV + RAE (36 and 48 ppm) groups were 3.56 and 4.44 days, respectively, and were prolonged compared to those in the UV-only group (3.36 days); (iii) zebrafish in the UV + RAE (36 and 48 ppm) groups were 0.963 and 0.496 (p

Distribution Patterns of Grey Mullet in the Taiwan Strait in Relation to Oceanographic Conditions - Sheng-Yuan Teng; Sandipan Mondal; Quang-Huy Lu; Platinasoka Lin; Ming-An Lee; Louis George Korowi (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2024)
The depletion of the grey mullet population in the Taiwan Strait has generated interest in conservation initiatives and to enhance the effectiveness of restoration initiatives, it is essential to comprehend the specific habitat preferences of the species in question, particularly in relation to environmental changes. In this study, habitat suitability modelling was used to investigate the distribution patterns of grey mullet. Sea surface height (SSH) was the most significant predictor of the grey mullet standardized catch per unit effort (S.CPUE). Furthermore, sea surface temperature (SST) was the second most important oceanographic parameter, followed by mixed-layer depth (MLD). The grey mullet S.CPUE peaked in regions with the summed SST, Chla, salinity, SSH, MLD and current values being 20 °C, 0.9 mg/m3, 34.5 psu, 0.45 m, 18–38 m, and 0.25 m2/s2, respectively. From late October, HSI levels in the northern Taiwan ocean increased, with a consistent upward trend. The distribution expanded in November and December, focusing on the northern and mid-ocean regions west of Taiwan. HSI levels peak in January and February, especially in Taiwan’s coastal region. High HSI distribution shifts away from coastlines and diminishes in April. The findings of this study will contribute to the understanding of this specific species and the approach used in this study may be applicable to other fisheries stocks also.

Laboratory Measurements of Pyrene and Acenaphthene Partition into Microplastics - Yi-Ming Zhang; Peter Brimblecombe; Chon-Lin Lee (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2024)
Microplastics are a major environmental issue. In marine systems, these break down into small fragments that may lodge within organisms, but they behave as vectors for chemicals when pollutants such as metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), pesticides, and pharmaceuticals are absorbed by the particles. The rate and extent of uptake of organic compounds onto microplastics is dependent on a range of factors such as the sites available on the surface, the type of plastic, and the compound being sorbed, with hydrophobicity an important property. Laboratory experiments determined the uptake of pyrene and acenaphthene (and sometimes phenanthrene) onto pellets of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyoxymethylene (POM), polypropylene (PP) and polystyrene (PS). The kinetics of uptake in the experiments reveals half-lives ~10 h. The extent of partition onto the plastic pellets was similar for pyrene and phenanthrene, though lower for acenaphthene. This was not surprising because the octanol-water distribution coefficient of acenaphthene is about an order of magnitude smaller than that of pyrene, suggesting it is less hydrophobic. The PAHs are distributed most strongly into PP but only weakly into PVC. The fragmentation and oxidation of microplastics means that they sorb increasing amounts of organic material as they age.

Multi-constellation GNSS interferometric reflectometry for tidal analysis: mitigations for K1 and K2 biases due to GPS geometrical errors - Dongju Peng; Yunung Nina Lin; Jui-Chi Lee; Hsuan-Han Su; Emma M. Hill (Journal of Geodesy, 2024)
It has been observed that when using sea levels derived from GPS (Global Positioning System) signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) data to perform tidal analysis, the luni-solar semidiurnal (K2) and the luni-solar diurnal (K1) constituents are biased due to geometrical errors in the reflection data, which result from their periods coinciding with the GPS orbital period and revisit period. In this work, we use 18 months of GNSS SNR data from multiple frequencies and multiple constellations at three sites to further investigate the biases and how to mitigate them. We first estimate sea levels using SNR data from the GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo signals, both individually and by combination. Secondly, we conduct tidal harmonic analysis using these sea-level estimates. By comparing the eight major tidal constituents estimated from SNR data with those estimated from the co-located tide-gauge records, we find that the biases in the K1 and K2 amplitudes from GPS S1C, S2X and S5X SNR data can reach 5 cm, and they can be mitigated by supplementing GLONASS- and Galileo-based sea-level estimates. With a proper combination of sea-level estimates from GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo, SNR-based tidal constituents can reach agreement at the millimeter level with those from tide gauges.

Impact of Pacific–Japan pattern on temperature and heatwave events in summer over Taiwan - Wan‐Ling Tseng; Szu‐Ying Lin; Yi‐Chi Wang; Shih‐How Lo; Min‐Hui Lo; Shih‐Yu Lee; Chieh‐Ting Tsai; Huang‐Hsiung Hsu (International Journal of Climatology, 2023)
The prediction of heatwave events is vital to provide information on possible hazards caused by extremely high temperature. The Pacific–Japan (PJ) pattern is a significant climate variability that controls the summer climate over East Asia. Previous studies have reported that the meridional propagating wave structure associated with the PJ pattern can modulate summer temperature and heatwave characteristics over northeast Asian countries, such as Korea and Japan. Nevertheless, its impacts on the subtropical regions, including Taiwan, a mountainous subtropical island with an approximate population of 24 million, is not yet fully understood. In this study, we investigate the impacts of the PJ pattern on the summer temperature and heatwave characteristics in Taiwan on the interannual timescale using long‐term station‐based temperature and rainfall dataset. We found an island‐wide increase in temperature during the positive phase of the PJ pattern, which is characterized by an anticyclonic anomalous circulation over Taiwan. Meanwhile, the averaged effective area and frequency of heatwave extremes over Taiwan have increased significantly, indicating an increase of exposure to heatwaves. Our examinations of large‐scale environment suggest that the adiabatic warming due to subsidence anomaly associated with the anticyclone over Taiwan is primary contributor of surface warming, which is balanced by diabatic cooling and meridional advective cooling on a seasonal timescale. Our study consolidated the links between the PJ pattern as a climate driver, hot summers and increased summer heatwave events over Taiwan. By combining with the seasonal prediction systems and early warning systems, such understanding can help sectors that are vulnerable to heat stress to prepare for potential hazards.

Population Characteristics of the Mud Shrimp Upogebia major (De Haan, 1841) (Decapoda: Gebiidea: Upogebiidae) on Korean Tidal Flats in the Eastern Yellow Sea - Sungtae Kim; Cheol Yu; Chae-Lin Lee; Sukhyun Nam; Jae-Sang Hong (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
The population parameters of the ecologically important mud shrimp Upogebia major (De Haan, 1841) were analyzed from 2012 to 2015 in tidal flats in Seonjaedo and Jugyo on the west coast of Korea. The shrimp density averaged 265/m2 in Seonjaedo and 118/m2 in Jugyo. The sex ratio varied monthly, often male-biased, and, by size, males were significantly dominant, with a carapace length (CL) over 30 mm. Although the shrimp settled almost annually, only a single size-group was observed from 2012 to 2014. The recruitment in Jugyo in 2014 was notably successful, resulting in two cohorts persisting until 2015. Many shrimp were parasitized at varying local rates: 6.0% in Seonjaedo and 37.1% in Jugyo. The growth curves revealed that the shrimp grew annually after settlement, reaching CLs of 11.90, 18.24, and 23.02 mm in Seonjaedo and 13.73, 20.86, and 25.82 mm in Jugyo. Annual mortality was 77.2% in Seonjaedo and 67.4% in Jugyo. The estimated lifespan (tmax) was 10 years in Seonjaedo and 8 years in Jugyo, whereas the 2010 cohort in Jugyo largely disappeared in 5 years. Ovigerous females appeared from November to June and benthic juveniles between June and September. The shrimps’ growth was slower relative to other East Asian populations, likely due to colder sea water temperatures and altered food conditions from a higher shrimp density.

Association of mono-2-ethylhexyl phthalate with adverse outcomes in chronic hemodialysis patients - Chia-Lin Wu; Yu-Wei Fang; Yi-Chou Hou; Kuo-Cheng Lu; Wen-Hsin Tsai; Ping-Hsun Lu; Tzong-Shyuan Lee; Ko-Lin Kuo (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2023)
Phthalate exposure is widespread and has a global impact. Growing evidence shows that mono-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (MEHP) exposure has a negative impact on human health. However, whether MEHP exposure is associated with mortality and other adverse outcomes in hemodialysis patients remains unknown. This study prospectively enrolled 217 patients on maintenance hemodialysis from June 30, 2021, to August 16, 2022. Baseline serum MEHP, di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), and indoxyl sulfate (IS) concentrations were measured. Primary endpoints were all-cause mortality or composite adverse outcomes, including all-cause death plus hospitalization due to cardiovascular disease, heart failure, stroke, infection, or cancer. Serum MEHP concentrations were positively associated with DEHP but not indoxyl sulfate concentrations in hemodialysis patients. Additionally, serum MEHP concentrations were significantly and independently associated with all-cause mortality and composite adverse outcomes (adjusted hazard ratios [HRs], 1.04 and 1.03 per ng/mL, 95% confidence intervals [CIs], 1.01–1.07 and 1.00–1.05; p = 0.016 and 0.015, respectively). We found a cutoff value of MEHP for predicting both endpoints. Patients with serum MEHP concentrations of ≥ 41.8 ng/mL had much higher risks for all-cause mortality and composite adverse outcomes (adjusted HRs, 39.2 and 13; 95% CIs, 2.44–65.7 and 2.74–61.4; p = 0.011 and 0.001, respectively). MEHP exposure is significantly associated with higher risks for all-cause mortality and composite adverse outcomes. Hemodialysis patients with serum MEHP concentrations above 41.8 ng/mL had much poorer prognoses regarding both outcomes.

SERS-based rapid susceptibility testing of commonly administered antibiotics on clinically important bacteria species directly from blood culture of bacteremia patients - Yin-Yi Han; Jann-Tay Wang; Wei-Chih Cheng; Ko-Lun Chen; Yi Chi; Lee-Jene Teng; Juen-Kai Wang; Yuh-Lin Wang (World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2023)
Bloodstream infections are a growing public health concern due to emerging pathogens and increasing antimicrobial resistance. Rapid antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) is urgently needed for timely and optimized choice of antibiotics, but current methods require days to obtain results. Here, we present a general AST protocol based on surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS-AST) for bacteremia caused by eight clinically relevant Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens treated with seven commonly administered antibiotics. Our results show that the SERS-AST protocol achieves a high level of agreement (96% for Gram-positive and 97% for Gram-negative bacteria) with the widely deployed VITEK 2 diagnostic system. The protocol requires only five hours to complete per blood-culture sample, making it a rapid and effective alternative to conventional methods. Our findings provide a solid foundation for the SERS-AST protocol as a promising approach to optimize the choice of antibiotics for specific bacteremia patients. This novel protocol has the potential to improve patient outcomes and reduce the spread of antibiotic resistance.
