Hyperelastic Starch Hydrogel Configures Edible and Biodegradable All‐Components for Soft Robots

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hyperelastic starch hydrogel is tailored via a phase separation strategy of solvent‐antisolvent co‐modulation. The mechanical performance of starch hydrogel is widely tuned with maximum strains: 194.4–361.4%; maximum tensile stresses: 34–192 kPa; and Young's moduli: 36.0–205.8 kPa. Notably, the hydrogel achieves complete soil degradation within 24 days

SIP‐SRS Imaging of Cell Wall Synthesis Identifies a Synergy between Micafungin and Amphotericin B

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We employed glucose‐d7–based stable isotope probe‐assisted SRS microscopy (SIP‐SRS) C–D imaging to visualize fungal cell wall synthesis and remodeling under antifungal treatment. Amphotericin B (AmB) induced notable daughter cell wall thickening, prompting a combinational therapy with AmB and micafungin.

A Lipid with Lewis Pair‐Mediated Targeting and Multiple Stimuli‐Responsive Delivery of Antibiotics for Bacterial Infections

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Lewis pair‐integrated lipids (Lp‐lipids), combining targeted delivery and stimuli‐responsive are developed for antibiotic delivery. These lipids form nanoparticles that bind biofilms via boronate ester bonds and respond to acidic pH, H2O2, and ATP, enabling controlled drug release.

An Automated Lab‐On‐A‐Chip Approach for Pollen Tube Growth Manipulation in a Controlled Chemical Environment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Here, a microfluidic‐based robotic lab‐on‐a‐chip (LoC) device is presented for automated, continuous‐flow investigation and manipulation of single pollen tube growth under precisely controlled chemical gradients. This closed‐loop system streamlines data collection and analysis while enhancing experimental precision compared to manual methods ...
