Comparative analysis of hydrophobicity and dentin adhesion ability in Candida albicans strains [PDF]
Journal of Applied Oral ScienceAdhesion to dentin is a first step for a successful microbial root canal colonization. Cell hydrophobicity seems to have some influence in the Candida species adhesion to surfaces. Objective to measure cell surface hydrophobicity and to investigate the

Sensitivity of single and multiple cosmic ray neutrons to the surrounding medium in a lead-free monitor [PDF]
In 1981-1985 the neutron component of cosmic rays was recorded, the effect of cosmic ray multiplication in lead being disregarded. The recording device consisted of neutron counters placed in a polyethylene retarder (polyethylene tubes with wall ...

Self‐Spiking Linear Neuromorphic Soft Pressure Sensor for Underwater Sensing Applications
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study presents a novel design of a neuromorphic pressure sensor that can generate self‐spiking symmetric signals with direct event‐based encoding through the integration of magnetic spheres and alternating coil circuits. The key advantages of this work include high linearity up to 200 kPa (R2 = 0.997), self‐spiking behavior for simplified signal ...

The Space Within: How Architected Voids Promote Tissue Formation
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review explores the role of void spaces in tissue engineering scaffolds and examines four key methods for introducing porosity into hydrogels at different scales. It discusses sacrificial templating, microgels, phase separation, and 3D printing, highlighting principles, advantages, and limitations. It also addresses emerging strategies integrating

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A zinc‐coordinated nanogel assembly is reported that co‐delivers three enzymes to regulate glucose, oxidative stress, and oxygen levels. This system mimics natural enzyme cascades to reprogram the wound environment after pancreatectomy. In a post‐pancreatectomy mouse model, it accelerates healing by reducing infection, promoting blood vessel growth ...

Numerical investigation of granular filter under the bed of a canal
Applied Water Science, 2019 To protect canal beds against erosion and to prevent seepage from the bottom or side of a canal, impermeable linings are often used. These linings can suffer from several problems including damage due to uplift pressure when the groundwater table is high.
