Estimating phytoplankton group abundances in an agricultural pond from in situ sensed data with machine learning: use of the SHAP analysis for ecological assessments

Frontiers in Environmental Science
Phytoplankton are a crucial component of aquatic ecosystems and are closely tied to water quality. Direct counts of phytoplankton abundances are resource-demanding, but the indirect estimation of those abundances has proven to be beneficial when ...

Mechanoregulatory Effects of Cell‐Scale Microwells on Epithelial Cell Phenotype

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In small polycaprolactone microwells, A549 epithelial cells span well edges, in contrast to cells growing on flat substrates. Focal adhesion sites (yellow) concentrate at topographic boundaries, while cytoskeletal tension (magenta stress fibers) is transmitted to the nucleus (blue), reducing nuclear sphericity.

Biointerface Membranes Orchestrating Site‐Specific Osteoimmunomodulatory and Antibacterial Effects for Enhanced Osseous Regeneration in Periodontal Therapy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, a biointerface membrane engineered with site‐specific interfacial properties is developed. During implantation between gingival and bone defect, the membrane creates a pro‐osteogenic microenvironment, precisely modulates cellular activities at each biointerface, and facilitates the orchestration of complex healing events, ultimately leading to ...

Bank Filtration as a Robust Pretreatment of Gravity-Driven Membrane Filtration: Performance Enhancement and Mechanistic Insights

Engineering
A gravity-driven membrane (GDM) system is a cleaning-free ultrafiltration (UF) process for decentralized water purification. However, GDM has a poor permeate quality and low stable flux when the feed water contains high levels of particulates, organic ...

Self‐Feeding of Engineered Tissues via Controlled Glucose Release Facilitates Survival and Vascularization of Living Implants

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Engineering living matter has great clinical potential to deliver functional replacement organs. However, clinical translation remains hampered by the current inability to maintain viability of clinically relevant‐sized constructs. During the pre‐vascular phase, implants rely on nutrient diffusion for survival, which is insufficient at ...

Fluorescent dissolved organic matter in the dark ocean

, 2012
A dissolved organic matter (DOM) fraction absorbs ultraviolet and visible radiation that partially also emits fluorescence when irradiated with ultraviolet light. To identify the most relevant fluorophores present in deep waters, 429 excitation-emission matrixes (EEMs) from the bathypelagic layer of the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific oceans were recorded

Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence in Phase‐Separated Nanostructures

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A supramolecular, phase‐separation driven strategy yields charge transfer (CT) complexes from alternating electron‐deficient pyromellitic diimide and electron‐rich 4,5‐dibromoveratrole. The resulting CT complexes self‐assemble into lamellar nanosheets with nanometer‐sized domains that exhibit thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) at room ...

Novel Functional Materials via 3D Printing by Vat Photopolymerization

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This Perspective systematically analyzes strategies for incorporating functionalities into 3D‐printed materials via Vat Photopolymerization (VP). It explores the spectrum of achievable functionalities in recently reported novel materials—such as conductive, energy‐storing, biodegradable, stimuli‐responsive, self‐healing, shape‐memory, biomaterials, and

Spin‐Dependent Generation of Surface‐Bound Radicals Toward Selective and Long‐Lasting Water Purification

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study develops a novel atomic engineering strategy to fine‐tune the spin state of α‐Fe2O3 catalysts toward a medium‐spin state, thereby modulating peroxymonosulfate activation and selectively yielding surface‐bound radicals. Compared with free radicals, surface‐bound radicals exhibit moderated oxidation potential, extended lifespan, surface ...
