Biodegradation of sorbed chemicals in soil. [PDF]

, 1995
Rates of biodegradation of sorbed chemicals are usually lower in soil than in aqueous systems, in part because sorption reduces the availability of the chemical to microorganisms.

Nanoparticle-Induced Controlled Biodegradation and Its Mechanism in Poly(ε-caprolactone)

, 2016
Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL)/layered silicate nanocomposites have been prepared via solution route. Two different organically modified nanoclays were used to compare the variation in properties based on organic modifications.

Biodegradation Properties Of Az31 Magnesium Alloy Coated by Dicalcium Phosphate Dihydrate

Communications, 2014
Biodegradation properties of magnesium and its alloys that can be used for implants are not satisfactory and cause serious problems. These problems can be solved by biodegradable surface coatings.

The Deep-Sea Microbial Community from the Amazonian Basin Associated with Oil Degradation

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
One consequence of oil production is the possibility of unplanned accidental oil spills; therefore, it is important to evaluate the potential of indigenous microorganisms (both prokaryotes and eukaryotes) from different oceanic basins to degrade oil. The

Biodegradation of RDX in Rhodococcus spp. [PDF]

, 2011
The manufacture, use and storage of explosives over decades have seriously contaminated the environment. Hexa-hydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (Royal Demolition Explosive - RDX) is one of the most widely used explosives.

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.

IN4MER Biomaterial Ink: A Phosphorescent Biosensing Biomaterial Ink for Multiple Analytes (Glucose, Lactate, Oxygen) Measurements and Temperature Sensing Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Multianalyte, real‐time monitoring of bioprinted scaffolds remains challenging. Phosphorescence‐lifetime–based, optically responsive microparticles are embedded in diverse printable hydrogels (κ‐carrageenan, GelMA, PEGDA) to form biomaterial inks that report oxygen, glucose, lactate, and temperature.
