ON THE DESIRABILITY AND EFFICACY OF CHEMICAL “STERILIZATION” OF HYDROPHILIC CONTACT LENSES* [PDF]
: A reappraisal of the value and the aims of contact lens “sterilisation” was undertaken with a view to defining the role of hydrophilic lens storage solutions. The efficacy of four types of hydrophilic soaking solutions and one conventional (hard) contact lens soaking solution were tested in an experimental situation against pseudomonas aeruginosa and

Protein‐Like Polymers Targeting Keap1/Nrf2 as Therapeutics for Myocardial Infarction
We describe a Keap1 targeting protein‐like polymer (PLP) which activates Nrf2, an important cytoprotective transcription factor for relieving myocardial infarction‐induced oxidative stress. This PLP increases cell survival in vitro in multiple relevant cardiac cell types and elicits pro‐reparative responses, improving cardiac function in a preclinical ...

The movement of pure water droplets on a superhydrophobic glass surface is precisely controlled through electrostatic manipulation using a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) rod from the opposite side. With just a few seconds of triboelectric charging, the PTFE rod directs droplets, achieving acceleration over 10 000 mm s−2.

In this work, anisotropic line‐like textures with gradually increasing spatial periods from 2.0 to 4.8 µm are fabricated on stainless steel by two‐beam Direct Laser Interference Patterning using a picosecond (ps)laser source. The spontaneous motion of water droplets deposited on these gradient structures in the direction of increasing periodicity is ...
