A Folding Magnetic Soft Sheet Robot With Real‐Time Reconfigurable Magnetization for Targeted Drug Delivery

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Magnetic robots have the characteristics of small size, non‐cable drive and motion agility, but multi‐angle folding and real‐time reconfigurable magnetization are difficult to be integrated into small‐sized soft structures. Here, the authors propose a magnetic soft sheet robot based on the dynamic magnetization characteristics of magnetorheological ...

Disc‐Toroid Hybrid Lipid Nanoparticles for Efficient Drug Encapsulation and Subcutaneous Delivery

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates sub‐50 nm solid‐lipid nanoparticles with long‐term stability, high drug loading, and strong tissue compatibility. Disc‐toroid morphology is confirmed and may play a role in cellular interactions, while low cytotoxicity and minimal systemic permeation confirm depot‐like behavior. These nanoparticles represent a versatile platform

The Breakdown and Self‐Clearing Performance During the Energy Harvesting Process of Dielectric Elastomer Generators Using Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes Electrodes

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For dielectric elastomer generators (DEG), electrical breakdown is the main failure mode during their working cycle. The application of self‐clearing electrodes is of great significance to avoid a single breakdown leading to the failure of the entire generator.

Assessing the impact of the physical properties of industrially produced carbon nanotubes on their interaction with human primary macrophages in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Currently it is not fully understood how carbon nanotubes (CNTs) may affect human health. Despite this, CNTs are produced at a tonne mass scale yearly. Due to their large production and intended use within a variety of applications it is imperative that ...

A systematic review on research trends and commercialised entomopathogenic nematodes: A global perspective

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Out of 136 identified EPNs, only 18 (8 Steinernema and 6 Heterorhabditis) are commercialised globally, highlighting a major gap between discovery and application. High production costs and inconsistent field efficacy are the leading obstacles to the widespread commercialisation of EPN‐based biocontrol products.
