Animal‐Free Setup of a 3D Mature Adipocyte‐Macrophage Co‐Culture to Induce Inflammation In Vitro

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A completely animal‐free 3D co‐culture is developed using human fat cells and immune cells. Animal‐based materials are replaced with gellan gum hydrogel and a serum‐free medium. Immune cells are effectively activated, producing specific inflammatory signals.

Peptide Display Directed Assembly of Biopolymer Core–Silica Shell Particles

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bacterial cells are engineered to produce biopolyester particles displaying peptides mediating growth of silica. Peptide‐coated biopolyester particles are treated with silica precursors and silica shell formation is studied. Transmission electron microscopy shows silica‐coated BPs which are formed after the silicification treatment. Characterization of

Investigation on the Influence of Protein Corona and Platelet Adhesion on Storage Bag Surface on the Platelet Storage Lesion

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Platelet quality deteriorates during storage due to protein and platelet adhesion to current bag materials. Here, polymer coatings are identified that reduce adhesion and translated them to mini‐storage bags. Platelet quality are not impacted, despite significantly reducing adhesion.

Interstitial N‐Strengthened Copper‐Based Bioactive Conductive Dressings Combined with Electromagnetic Fields for Enhanced Wound Healing

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study developed a nitrogen‐strengthened copper‐iron‐zinc (N‐CuFeZn) alloy bioactive dressing integrated with electromagnetic stimulation. The coaxial dressing, made from 0.04 mm filaments with 1120 MPa tensile strength, showed that electromagnetic activation enhanced therapeutic outcomes by increasing VEGF expression, promoting angiogenesis (2.1 ...
