The levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST/GOT) and alanineaminotransferase (ALT/GPT) in serum can help people diagnose body tissues especially theheart and the liver are injured or not. This article provides a comprehensive review ofresearch activities that concentrate on AST/GOT and ALT/GPT detection techniques due totheir clinical importance. The detection techniques include colorimetric, spectrophotometric,chemiluminescence, chromatography, fluorescence and UV absorbance, radiochemical, andelectrochemical techniques. We devote the most attention on experimental principle. Insome methods a few representative devices and important conclusions are presented.

A robust superhydrophobic and superoleophobic surface is demonstrated. On a large-size template of the transparent polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) elastomer surface, perfectly ordered microstructures with an inverse-trapezoidal cross section are fabricated with two consecutive PDMS replication processes and a three-dimensional diffuser lithography technique. The hydrophobicity and transparency were improved by additional coating of a fluoropolymer layer. The robustness of superhydrophobicity was confirmed by the water droplet impinging test. This transparent, flexible, and superhydrophobic surface provides a new approach for self-cleaning surfaces.

A self-cleaning effect developed through the use of a superhydrophobic and water-repellent surface was demonstrated for solar cell applications. A perfectly ordered microshell array was fabricated on a transparent and flexible polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) elastomer surface. This microshell PDMS showed an excellent water-repellent property with a contact angle (CA) higher than 150° and a hysteresis of lower than 20°, even without the aid of a low surface energy chemical coating. Fabricated superhydrophobic microshell PDMS showed a superior dust cleaning effect compared to that of flat PDMS, preventing the degradation by dust particles of solar cell efficiency. This transparent, flexible and superhydrophobic microshell PDMS surface provides feasibility for a practical application of superhydrophobic surfaces in solar cells.
