Skeletal High‐Strength Nanoporous Copper and Metamaterials: The Hakka Tulou Design Heritage

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by the Hakka Tulou walls, skeletal nanoporous copper is fabricated via a two‐phase MnCu precursor and controlled dealloying. This strategy achieves high strength (200 MPa) and large specific surface area (27.6 m2/g), and extends to lattice metamaterials with hierarchical porosity, offering new design pathways for multifunctional metal ...

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Shaping Microbial Motion with Light: A Contactless Approach Using Diffusioosmotic Flow

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Light‐controlled, contactless manipulation of cyanobacteria using photoresponsive azobenzene surfactants. Reversible photo‐isomerization generates surface flow, enabling precise trapping, relocation, and directional control of single cells or ensembles with adjustable light intensity and wavelength for noninvasive, spatiotemporally resolved microbial ...

An ancient history of gene duplications, fusions and losses in the evolution of APOBEC3 mutators in mammals

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2012
BackgroundThe APOBEC3 (A3) genes play a key role in innate antiviral defense in mammals by introducing directed mutations in the DNA. The human genome encodes for seven A3 genes, with multiple splice alternatives.

Hygromnemics: Programmable Material Memory Matter Actuators via Wet Pre‐Constraining

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Humidity‐based pre‐constraining creates hygromnemics‐shape memory matter. From identical biocomposites actuation in dry and wet states is obtained via hygromnemic and hygromorphic actuation, respectively. Hygromnemic actuators present long‐ and short‐term shape memory abilities.
