This review focuses on the application of synthetic biodegradable microarray patches (MAPs) in sustained drug delivery. Compared to conventional MAPs which release drugs into the skin in an immediate manner, these implantable MAPs release drugs into skin microcirculation gradually as the biodegradable polymers degrade, thus offering sustained release ...

Flow Analysis in Pathological Microvascular Models by Ultrasound Localization Microscopy
This study presents a new platform combining ultrasound localization microscopy with biomimetic gelatin phantoms to analyze flow dynamics in small vessels with narrowing or obstructions. Using microbubble tracking, the method enables high‐resolution velocity mapping in 100–500 µm channels, revealing flow changes in pathological microvascular conditions

Self‐Sterilizing Face Mask Employing Enzymatic Power Generation
Electric face mask with flexible biofuel cell integration for on‐the‐go sterilization is developed utilizing ethanol oxidation via alcohol dehydrogenase, and oxygen reduction via bilirubin oxidase. Modified face mask exhibited bacterial death rates of 40–60% at only 20 µA of electric current, easily generated by the biofuel cell continuously over hours

The tripodal terpyridine‐1,3,5‐benzene tricarboxamide (BTA) ligand 1 is employed in the self‐assembly formation of novel luminescent materials using a range of lanthanide ions. In the polar protic solution, the results from the photophysical measurements are assessed using nonlinear regression analysis, while the functional material properties of the ...

Sketch and Peel Focused Ion Beam Patterning of Black Phosphorus for Mid‐Infrared Photonics
“Sketch and peel” method nano‐fabricates black phosphorus (BP) with minimal damage. A focused‐neon ion beam “sketches” the pattern, followed by polyvinyl acetate‐based “peeling” to remove surrounding flakes. Thermal treatment preserves the mid‐infrared (MIR) emission of the isolated “Koala” structure, proving it as an enabling technology for future BP ...
