Therapeutic Potential of Manuka Honey Microbubble Dressing in Wound Management
The manuka honey microbubble dressing innovation utilizes high‐density stainless steel mesh technology to generate microscopic honey bubbles achieving S. aureus elimination by fine‐tuning factors such as microbubble size, MH microbubble consumption, and treatment duration. This pioneering approach transforms traditional wound healing and may reduce the

Identifying Infection Sources and Regions in Large Networks [PDF]
Identifying the infection sources in a network, including the index cases that introduce a contagious disease into a population network, the servers that inject a computer virus into a computer network, or the individuals who started a rumor in a social network, plays a critical role in limiting the damage caused by the infection through timely ...

This study investigates the antifungal efficacy of ultrashort pulsed laser‐induced periodic surface structures (USP‐DLIP) on copper, brass, and steel surfaces. Using Aspergillus niger as a model, the research highlights a 99% reduction in spore viability on 9 µm structured copper surfaces due to enhanced copper ion release. Scanning electron microscopy

On the Relentless Pursuit of an Oral Insulin Delivery System: How Far is Too Far?
Injectable insulin preparations have far outpaced oral ones by virtue of adequate bioavailability and are driven by innovations, including insulin pumps, real‐time blood glucose monitoring, and artificial intelligence. In contrast, oral insulin delivery systems, including nanomedicines, continue to struggle and lag due to varied reasons.

The contact process with semi-infected state on the complete graph [PDF]
In this paper we are concerned with the contact process with semi-infected state on the complete graph $C_n$ with $n$ vertices. In our model, each vertex is in one of three states that `healthy', `semi-infected' or `wholly-infected'. Only wholly-infected vertices can infect others. A healthy vertex becomes semi-infected when being infected while a semi-
