A High‐Efficiency Yet Sustainable Fresh‐Keeping Strategy Inspired by Calyx of Physalis peruviana

Exploration, EarlyView.
This study presents a sprayable, calyx‐inspired food wrap engineered for safety and sustainability using handheld electrospraying. The wrap forms a health‐critical protective barrier with high antiviral and antibacterial efficacy, excellent breathability, and long‐term fresh‐keeping performance.

Engineered Nature‐Based Sonosensitizer for Broad‐Spectrum Infectious Tissue Repair via Sono‐Ionic Therapy

Exploration, EarlyView.
A schematic illustration of an engineered nature‐based sonosensitizer enables early‐stage high‐power ultrasound to generate substantial reactive oxygen species for antibacterial effects and late‐stage low‐power sono‐ionic therapy for infected bone repair, infected wound biofilm therapy, and wound regeneration.

The diversity and biosynthesis of plant cuticular waxes

, 2017
Plants coat themselves in a cuticle to hinder transpiration across the vast surface areas they require for photosynthesis. The cuticle is made of cutin, a polyester, and cuticular waxes, aliphatic compounds that form the water barrier. Cuticles of model plants had been major targets for cuticular wax research, and knowledge of their surfaces is ...

The plant microbiome: From ecological foundations to precision microbial engineering for sustainable agriculture

iMeta, EarlyView.
From ecological principles to precision engineering of plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture. The plant holobiont integrates diverse microbial niches (including rhizosphere, endosphere, phyllosphere, seed, and aerial‐root mucilagesphere), host genetics (namely M genes), and host metabolites. Furthermore, molecular dialogues, including rhizobial

Nail Surgery in Children: Specific Challenges and Practical Considerations

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nail surgery in children represents a specific field within dermatologic surgery. Although the procedures themselves are largely similar to those performed in adults, the indications, technical constraints, and perioperative management differ substantially. Pediatric nail disorders are often clinically recognizable, which frequently limits the

In a Different Light: Irradiation‐Induced Cuticular Wax Accumulation Fails to Reduce Cuticular Transpiration

Plant, Cell & Environment
ABSTRACTThe cuticle, an extracellular hydrophobic layer impregnated with waxy lipids, serves as the primary interface between plant leaves and their environment and is thus subject to external cues. A previous study on poplar leaves revealed that environmental conditions outdoors promoted the deposition of about 10‐fold more cuticular wax compared to ...
