Hydrodynamic Performance Analysis of a Biomimetic Manta Ray Underwater Glider

open access: yes, 2016
A biomimetic manta ray underwater glider actuated by buoyance is presented. Firstly, the hydrodynamic structure shape of the biomimetic manta ray underwater glider is established with reference to the appearance of manta rays. Secondly, the steady motion

Euchrestifolines A–O, fifteen novel carbazole alkaloids with potent anti-ferroptotic activity from Murraya euchrestifolia

open access: yesNatural Products and Bioprospecting
Fifteen novel carbazole alkaloids, euchrestifolines A–O (1–15), were obtained from Murraya euchrestifolia. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis, Mosher’s ester, calculated ECD, and transition metal complex ECD methods.

A Biomimetic Polymer for the Extraction and Purification of Superior Analogues of Amphotericin B

open access: yes, 2023
Amphotericin B has been an essential drug in the fight against leishmaniasis and fungal pathogens for decades, and has more recently gained attention for the very limited microbial resistance displayed against it. However, its toxicity has restricted its

Intrinsic Disorder as a Biomimetic Design Paradigm

open access: yes
Molecular engineering has traditionally followed a structure–function paradigm based on well-defined, folded architectures. However, intrinsically disordered proteins and regions (IDPs/IDRs) reveal that nature also exploits disorder as a functional ...
