Cross‐Scale Hierarchical Targeted Delivery System Based on Small‐Scale Magnetic Robots

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article reviews a cross‐scale hierarchical targeted delivery system that integrates magnetic continuum robots and magnetic microrobots. By combining rapid long‐range navigation with precise microscale targeting, the system overcomes key limitations of single‐scale approaches.

Immunoassays for the detection and differentiation of Paenibacillus larvae, the etiological agent of American foulbrood (AFB) in honey bees

Scientific Reports
The Western honey bee (Apis mellifera) is among the most important commercial pollinators in agriculture, but also plays a central role as pollinator in natural ecosystems. The globally occurring brood disease American foulbrood (AFB), caused by the gram-

Targeted Delivery of Indole‐3‐Pyruvic Acid Suppresses Macrophage Ferroptosis to Enhance CD8+ T Cell‐Mediated Immunotherapy Response in Bladder Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A microbiota‐derived metabolite, indole‐3‐pyruvic acid, suppresses macrophage ferroptosis through the AHR–NF‐κB–SLC7A11 axis. This preserves CD8+ T cell function in bladder cancer. Macrophage‐targeted nanoparticles enhance indole‐3‐pyruvic acid delivery and overcome resistance to PD‐1 blockade.

Direct Access to Chiral Piperidines by Enantioselective HAT‐Initiated C(sp3)─H Oxidation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The direct desymmetrization of piperidines is achieved through manganese‐catalyzed enantioselective α‐C(sp3)─H oxidation with hydrogen peroxide, affording versatile chiral N,O‐acetals in good yields and with high enantio‐ and diastereoselectivity. These intermediates provide access to diverse functionalized piperidines with retention of chirality ...

Cold storage as part of a Varroa management strategy: effects on honey bee colony performance, mite levels and stress biomarkers

Scientific Reports, 2023
Placing honey bee colonies in cold storage has been proposed as a way to induce a pause in brood production as part of a Varroa mite treatment plan. Here, we exposed colonies to combinations of with or without an October cold storage period and with or ...
