Gradients of Aliveness and Engineering: A Taxonomy of Fungal Engineered Living Materials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This paper explores the potential of fungal engineered living materials (ELMs), examining fungal biology and growth mechanisms, which underpin their development. It presents a classification framework based on aliveness, scaffold composition, and engineering degree. Unique properties such as self‐healing, biosensing, and bioremediation are highlighted,

Dual Vacancy Engineering in Alloyed Ga‐Zn‐Cu‐Se Quantum Dots for Photocatalytic 5‐Hydroxymethylfurfural to 2,5‐Diformylfuran Conversion

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A dual‐vacancy‐engineered strategy is developed to construct Ga‐Zn co‐doped CuSe quantum dots (GZC QDs) via cation exchange using CuSe as a template. By precisely introducing Cu and Se vacancies, the optimized sample efficiently facilitates the selective photocatalytic oxidation of 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5‐diformylfuran (DFF), achieving an ...

Water Permeates and Plasticizes Amorphous Carbon Dots: Unraveling the Inner Accessibility of the Nanoparticles by Glass Transition Studies

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The water permeability of amorphous carbon dots (CDs) is demonstrated by investigating their plasticization. Novel polyamide‐based and amorphous nanoparticles are synthesized by controlling their inner packing density. Water plasticization is evidenced by the decrease of the CDs glass transition temperature with increasing the hydration degree.

Copper Stress Response of Antibiotic‐Resistant and Copper‐Tolerant Enterococcus faecium and the Antibacterial Efficacy of Functionalized Copper Surfaces

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study examines how different laser‐patterned copper and brass surfaces, including copper coatings, affect the survival of vancomycin‐resistant Enterococcus faecium. Using microscopy and genome analysis, the results show that copper tolerance varies between strains and can increase after vancomycin exposure.

Antimicrobial Multi‐Assay Evaluation of (Al‐Doped ZnO)‐Ag and TiO2‐Ag Nanocoatings: Impact of Direct and Indirect Mechanisms

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This work explores the antimicrobial action of AZO‐Ag and TiO2‐Ag nanocoatings on plastic, demonstrating good efficacy against highly‐critical antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, yeast, and virus. A multi‐assay approach is here exploited to inspect the contribution of direct and indirect antimicrobial mechanisms, and potential human toxicity is also ...

Evaluation of Cell‐Extracellular Vesicle Interaction Using a Microfluidic Microsystem (CellExoChip)

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A new microfluidic platform, the CellExoChip, reveals how cancer cells interact with exosomes to influence metastasis. This device isolates cancer cells and tracks their uptake exosomes and secretion of their exosomes in response to other exosomes. Lung cancer cells are showed preferentially absorb and respond to their own exosomes—hinting at a hidden ...
