Polydopamine‐Wool Textiles for Sustainable Interfacial Solar Vapor Generation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A natural wool textile engineered for high solar absorbance and a fast‐wicking structure serves as a highly efficient, single‐layer system for interfacial solar vapor generation (ISVG). This integrated evaporator seamlessly couples rapid water transport with continuous evaporation. Ultimately, this sustainable photothermal design offers a scalable, eco‐

A method for rapidly mass laser-marking individually coded ground beetles (Coleoptera: Caribidae) in the field

, 2005
1. A laser-marking technique is described that may be used to rapidly mass-mark and individually code insects in the field. In this study, ground beetles were marked but the method is applicable to a wide range of organisms with a hard exoskeleton or ...

A Scalable Double‐Sided Wet Etching Strategy for Large‐Area Mushroom‐Shaped Bionic Adhesives

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a scalable manufacturing strategy for high‐performance, large‐area, mushroom‐shaped bio‐inspired adhesives. Using a double‐sided wet etching process, the complex 3D metal molds are fabricated rapidly and controllably. The resulting adhesive structures exhibit strong, stable adhesion under various conditions, including atmosphere and ...

Expanding the DNA Nanotechnology Toolbox: Hierarchical Assembly and Self‐Sorting of DNA Tiles With Precisely Controlled Hydrophobic Behavior

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
DNA tile amphiphiles encode dual chemical information, directing nanostructure formation through base‐pairing and hydrophobic effects. Thermal annealing programs hierarchical assembly, with first‐formed interactions biasing the final morphology: short hydrophobic chain strands form DX‐tiles and then into stars, while long‐chain strands form SNAs and ...

Single‐Stranded Interruptions in the T7 Promoter Non‐Template Strand Exhibit Unexpected Transcription Behavior

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
DNA structures with short single‐strand gaps in the non‐template strand of the T7 promoter prevent transcription by T7 RNA polymerase. Contrary to intuition, however, transcriptional activity can be observed again when the size of the gap increases toward the transcription start site, thereby reducing the proportion of double‐stranded DNA in the ...
