Halting the Progression of Acute Kidney Injury: A Tubular‐Inspired Reusable Detoxifier Against Protein‐Bound Uremic Toxins and Oxidative Stress

SusMat, EarlyView.
This graphical ToC illustrates a tubular‐inspired detoxifier (SDCMs–DS) that halts acute kidney injury progression. Inspired by proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs), the biomimetic design combines dissociation‐adsorption clearance of protein‐bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) with antioxidant protection. During hemoperfusion, danshensu (DS) released from

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.
