3D‐Printed Gastrointestinal Stents: In Vivo Evaluation in a Swine Small Bowel Perforation Model

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Gastrointestinal fistulae and perforations can lead to severe complications including sepsis and patient death. In this work, the efficacy of 3D‐printed gastrointestinal stents composed of poly‐lactic‐acid (PLA) was evaluated in an in vivo swine model.

Bacterially enhanced plant‐growing media for controlled environment agriculture

Microbial Biotechnology
Microbe–plant interactions in the root zone not only shape crop performance in soil but also in hydroponic cultivation systems. The biological and physicochemical properties of the plant‐growing medium determine the root‐associated microbial community ...

Variations in Soil Bacterial Composition and Diversity in Newly Formed Coastal Wetlands

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Coastal ecosystems experience some of the most active land–ocean interactions in the world, and they are characterized by high primary productivity and biological diversity in the sediment. Given the roles of microorganisms in soil biogeochemical cycling

Phylogenetic conservation of soil bacterial responses to simulated global changes. [PDF]

, 2020
Soil bacterial communities are altered by anthropogenic drivers such as climate change-related warming and fertilization. However, we lack a predictive understanding of how bacterial communities respond to such global changes.

Factors influencing the nematode community during composting and nematode-based criteria for compost maturity [PDF]

, 2018
Pilot studies indicate that shifts in the nematode species composition, life strategies and feeding behavior during composting appear to be fairly consistent and, therefore, promising as a potential tool to assess compost maturity. However, this has been

Evaluation of the Dual Impact of Nanotechnologies on Health and Environment Through Alternative Bridging Models

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores how alternative invertebrate and small‐vertebrate models advance the evaluation of nanomaterials across medicine and environmental science. By bridging cellular and organismal levels, these models enable integrated assessment of toxicity, biodistribution, and therapeutic performance.

Effects of Increasing the Nitrogen–Phosphorus Ratio on the Structure and Function of the Soil Microbial Community in the Yellow River Delta

Microorganisms
Nitrogen (N) deposition from human activities leads to an imbalance in the N and phosphorus (P) ratios of natural ecosystems, which has a series of negative impacts on ecosystems.

Bacterial community succession in pine-wood decomposition

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Though bacteria and fungi are common inhabitants of decaying wood, little is known about the relationship between bacterial and fungal community dynamics during natural wood decay. Based on previous studies involving inoculated wood blocks, strong fungal

Shallow water marine sediment bacterial community shifts along a natural CO2 gradient in the Mediterranean Sea off Vulcano, Italy. [PDF]

, 2014
The effects of increasing atmospheric CO(2) on ocean ecosystems are a major environmental concern, as rapid shoaling of the carbonate saturation horizon is exposing vast areas of marine sediments to corrosive waters worldwide. Natural CO(2) gradients off

Oxygen and ROS Delivery for Infected Wound Healing and Future Prospects

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bacterial infection is a major driver of delayed wound healing and postsurgical readmissions; with rising antibiotic resistance, solid peroxide–releasing biomaterials offer sustained delivery of ROS/O2 for antimicrobial control and microenvironmental modulation.
