A sustainable approach to composites is leading to the use of natural fibers rather than synthetic materials, like carbon or glass, for reinforcement. However, the higher moisture absorption of natural fibers impairs the composite’s mechanical properties.

Cardiac tissue engineering [PDF]
We hypothesized that clinically sized (1-5 mm thick),compact cardiac constructs containing physiologically high density of viable cells (≈108 cells/cm3) can be engineered in vitro by using biomimetic culture systems capable of providing oxygen transport ...

Modelling of Lubricated Electrical Contacts
Electrical contacts, although critically important for a wide range of applications, are susceptible to degradation due to fretting corrosion, especially when sliding and vibrations occur.

The concentration of several perfluoroalkyl acids in serum appears to be reduced by dietary fiber
Fiber-rich food intake has been associated with lower serum concentrations of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in some studies and dietary fiber was related to lower serum PFAS in a recent study.

How to Achieve High Encapsulation Efficiencies for Macromolecular and Sensitive APIs in Liposomes
This research highlights the capacity of a newly introduced centrifugation process to form liposomes from water-in-fluorocarbon nano-emulsions stabilized with phospholipids to incorporate macromolecular and sensitive active pharmaceutical ingredients ...
