Inorganic Nanomaterials Meet the Immune System: An Intricate Balance
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Metal nanomaterials influence the immune responses, such as cytokine production and T‐cell activity. Unintended immune modulation can have significant consequences while its fine‐tuning may transform the oncology care. Within this review, a critical analysis is offered regarding the nano/immune‐interaction and suggests the future research directions to

Hyper-spectral NIR and MIR data and optimal wavebands for detection of apple tree diseases [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Plant diseases can lead to dramatic losses in yield and quality of food, becoming a problem of high priority for farmers. Apple scab, moniliasis, and powdery mildew are the most significant apple tree diseases worldwide and may cause between 50% and 60% in yield losses annually; they are controlled by fungicide use with huge financial and time expenses.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.This study investigates the antifungal efficacy of ultrashort pulsed laser‐induced periodic surface structures (USP‐DLIP) on copper, brass, and steel surfaces. Using Aspergillus niger as a model, the research highlights a 99% reduction in spore viability on 9 µm structured copper surfaces due to enhanced copper ion release. Scanning electron microscopy
