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.

Architected Inverse Nacre Hydrogels With High Strength and Crack‐Insensitive Toughness

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hydrogels hold promise for biomedical and engineering applications, yet their practical use is fundamentally limited by the strength‐toughness trade‐off and poor fatigue resistance. In this study, a bioinspired inverse nacre architecture constructed via a scalable thermo‐calendering process is introduced, which overcomes these classic limitations ...

The Influence of Vibration on CaCO3 Scale Formation in Piping System

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2016
Carbonate scale is a common problem found in a piping system of industrial process. The presence of mechanical equipment such as turbine, compressor, blower, mixer and extruder produce a mechanical vibration on the piping system which is placed near ...

Heavy Alkyl-Benzene Sulfonate-Controlled Growth of Aragonite-Based Polymorphic CaCO3 Crystals in Emulsion

open access: yesCrystals, 2023
The non-natural mineralization of CaCO3 with special structures or morphologies is generated during the migration of crude oil and is the main form of scale in alkaline/surfactant/polymer (ASP) flooding in oilfields, adversely affecting oil recovery and ...

A Compact Hollow Fiber Electrode Assembly Architecture for Continuous Electrochemical Marine Carbon Dioxide Removal

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
A coaxial, membrane‐integrated hollow fiber electrode assembly (HFEA) is developed for continuous marine carbon mineralization. By utilizing a sub‐millimeter inter‐electrode gap, the HFEA minimizes Ohmic losses, achieving 50% energy reduction and over 85% DIC removal.

Multi-frequency observations of seawater carbonate chemistry on the central coast of the western Antarctic Peninsula [PDF]

open access: yesPolar Research, 2015
Assessments of benthic coastal seawater carbonate chemistry in Antarctica are sparse. The studies have generally been short in duration, during the austral spring/summer, under sea ice, or offshore in ice-free water.

The time series at the Strait of Gibraltar as a baseline for long-term assessment of vulnerability of calcifiers to ocean acidification

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The assessment of the saturation state (Ω) for calcium carbonate minerals (aragonite and calcite) in the ocean is important to determine if calcifying organisms have favourable or unfavourable conditions to synthesize their carbonated structures.

Surgical Technique for Treating Focal Osteochondral Knee Lesions Using an Aragonite‐Based Biphasic Scaffold

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Osteochondral lesions of the knee, particularly in patients with early osteoarthritic changes, remain a clinical challenge. The Agili‐C implant (CartiHeal, Smith & Nephew), an aragonite‐based osteochondral scaffold, offers a single‐stage, off‐the‐shelf solution designed to regenerate both cartilage and subchondral bone.

Sustainable Aragonite Production from Lime Feedstock Using Continuous Mineral Carbonation System and Seawater as a Natural Chemical Inducer

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Conventional production methods of aragonite production utilize chemical inducers to promote the evolution of the calcite crystalline phase to the aragonite phase of calcium carbonate. The chemical inducers used require a considerable amount of magnesium

Research progress and current status of dynamic wave propagation characteristics in rock mass: A review

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.
