New insights into Neolithic milk consumption through proteomic analysis of dental calculus
Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences, 2019 There has long been debate over the origins of dairy consumption within European populations. Whilst it was previously assumed that lactase persistence (LP) was under positive selection following the advent of agriculture, recent genetic studies of ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.MAMAWEL is introduced as the first calibration‐free potentiometric sensor for at‐home mastitis diagnosis. By measuring the sodium‐to‐potassium ratio in breast milk, the device reliably differentiates between healthy and mastitis‐affected samples with less than 10% error.

Free‐Form Microfluidic Microneedle Array Patches
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Microfluidic microneedle array patches (MAPs) integrate hollow microneedles with embedded microfluidic channels, fabricated using high‐resolution 3D printing, to enable controlled transdermal delivery of liquid, mixed, or reconstituted therapeutics.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Two novel donor–π–acceptor photoinitiators enable ultrafast long‐wavelength photopolymerization under blue/green LEDs and sunlight. Effective at low intensities and concentrations, they overcome slow kinetics and permit rapid 3D printing via DLW, DLP, and LCD methods.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Exosomes can reduce tissue damage in temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA), but rapid clearance limits their efficacy. This study encapsulates exosomes in hyaluronic acid hydrogels for controlled release. In a rat model, hydrogel‐encapsulated exosomes outperform free exosomes in preserving bone integrity and reducing tissue destruction ...

Biofluorescence imaging as a valid alternative for dental calculus detection
Photodiagnosis and Photodynamic TherapyBackground: Dental calculus is a major contributor to periodontal disease, and its effective removal depends on accurate detection. This study aimed to evaluate the detectability of dental calculus using quantitative biofluorescence imaging (BFI) and to ...

Proteomic evidence of dietary sources in ancient dental calculus
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2018 Archaeological dental calculus has emerged as a rich source of ancient biomolecules, including proteins. Previous analyses of proteins extracted from ancient dental calculus revealed the presence of the dietary milk protein β-lactoglobulin, providing ...

Cell Calcification Models and Their Implications for Medicine and Biomaterial Research
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Calcification, is the process by which the tissues containing minerals are formed, occurring during normal physiological processes, or in pathological conditions. Here, it is aimed to give a comprehensive overview of the range of cell models available, and the approaches taken by these models, highlighting when and how methodological divergences arise,
