Obstetrics and gynecology devices designed for low‐ and middle‐income countries: A narrative review
Abstract There are many barriers contributing to poor health outcomes for women in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), one of which is the lack of necessary medical devices. Presently, the development of various kinds of devices intended to improve women's health outcomes specifically in LMICs remains underrepresented in the literature; therefore,

MoSe2/GO heterostructure exhibits enhanced photocatalytic dye degradation and CO2 reduction through efficient charge separation and electron transfer under UV‐visible light irradiation. ABSTRACT MoSe2/graphene oxide (MoSe2/GO) hybrids with controlled GO loadings were prepared through an ex‐situ hydrothermal route using commercial MoSe2 and GO as ...

ABSTRACT Controllable DNA condensation is important for nucleic‐acid packaging and non‐viral gene‐delivery systems. This study aimed to determine how the composition of mixed nonionic C12E10 and cationic gemini C12C6C12Br2 surfactants regulates DNA condensation, structure, thermodynamics, and cytotoxicity.

Abstract Background This study evaluated the antimicrobial activity of thyme essential oil (TEO) encapsulated in electrospun zein fibers for use in bilayer films as active packaging for cherry tomatoes. The antimicrobial activity of TEO and bilayer films with 20%, 40%, and 60% TEO was assessed with agar diffusion and microatmosphere assays.

Fiber‐Reinforced Bio‐Epoxy Composites: Degradation Mechanisms in Saline Environment
Constituent level degradation of bio‐epoxy composites after saline aging. ABSTRACT This study examines the degradation behavior of bio‐epoxy composites reinforced with glass, basalt, carbon, and flax fiber yarns in a simulated saline environment. Fiber yarns and composite samples were exposed to 3.5% NaCl solution at 60°C for up to 3000 h.

Cationic‐Hydrophilic Di‐Block Copolymers: Surface‐Shielded Vectors for Gene Delivery
This study develops synthetic polycationic di‐block carriers for nucleic acid (NA) delivery in gene therapy. Consisting of a cationic block and a hydrophilic block, these carriers efficiently form complexes with NAs and shield them with a protective bioinert layer, enhancing stability during circulation in the bloodstream while reducing undesirable ...

Evaluating larvicide performance against Culicoides sonorensis in semi‐field conditions
This study evaluated the efficacy of larvicide products against Culicoides sonorensis populations under controlled semi‐field conditions. Larvicide efficacy against C. sonorensis declined over time, in different environmental conditions. In particular, precipitation and habitat disturbance influenced residual performance. Abstract BACKGROUND Culicoides
