Water-sustainable feeding strategies in post-weaning piglets: effects of sorghum-based diets on growth performance and gut health

open access: yesFrontiers in Animal Science
The environmental sustainability of feed ingredients, including water use, plays a central role in reducing the footprint of pig production. Sorghum, due to its nutritional value and tolerance to hydric stress, can represent a valid alternative to corn ...

Adaptive 4D‐Printed Vascular Stents With Low‐Temperature‐Activated and Intelligent Deployment

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Microarchitected coronary artery stents were fabricated using a polycaprolactone (PCL)‐based shape memory polymer (SMP) composite via projection micro‐stereolithography (PµSL) 4D printing. By incorporating diethyl phthalate (DEP) as a plasticizer, the thermal transition temperature (Ttran) was modulated to about 37°C, enabling rapid and autonomous ...
