Bi-directional reflectance measurements of closely packed natural and prepared particulate surfaces

open access: yes
One of the most general ways to quantify the surface reflectance of a medium is by use of the bi-directional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) (Hapke, 1993).

Packed Hydrogel Microfibers as Scaffolds Supporting Dynamic Cellular Behavior and Biomaterial Inks in 3D Printing

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Packed hydrogel microfiber (PHM) materials consist of flexible and high aspect ratio hydrogel components that, as a bulk material, are simultaneously mechanically robust and dynamic. Cells cultured in or on PHM scaffolds can be influenced by topographical cues or interact with a dynamic environment that permits cell spreading and multicellular ...

Functional Blood‐Brain Barrier Crossing by Biomimetic M13 Phage Vectors for Targeted Neuronal Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the M13 bacteriophage as a biomimetic nanovector capable of crossing in vitro models of the blood–brain barrier. By exploiting peculiar transcellular pathways, M13 avoids lysosomal degradation and preserves its structural integrity and functionality.

Prediction of directional reflectance of a corn field under stress

open access: yes, 1972
A vegetative canopy model concept is developed and used to calculate the directional spectral reflectance of a corn field under stress. The problem has been idealized by assuming that the canopy is represented in several layers of uniform but randomly ...

Natural Biomaterials for Osteochondral Repair: From Source to Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Biological origin‐guided overview of natural biomaterials and therapeutic strategies for osteochondral tissue engineering. The circular diagram categorizes representative materials and strategies into plant/algae‐derived, microbial‐derived, animal‐derived, and human‐derived sources, centered on an osteochondral defect repair model.

Retrieval of at-sensor irradiance using Incident Light Sensor (ILS)

open access: yes, 2002
A number of aircraft sensors have the facility to measure spectral downwelling irradiance using a sensor mounted on the roof of the aircraft, but these data are rarely used for atmospheric correction.

Matrix Stiffness Directs Stemness Signatures in Breast Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We built lab‐grown breast cancer models to study how the stiffness of the tumor's surroundings influences cancer behavior. Softer environments encouraged more stem‐like, drug‐resistant cells, while stiffer ones kept cells more differentiated. These findings show that tissue mechanics drive cancer diversity and drug resistance, offering new insights for

Retrieval of tropical forest structure characteristics from bi-directional reflectance of SPOT images

open access: yes, 2002
The natural tropical rain forest is an irregular mosaic of ever-changing developmental phases of vegetation. Its structure is a key information for forest monitoring and sustainable management. This experimental study aims to improve the understanding of
