Charting the landscape of the environmental exposome

open access: yesiMeta, Volume 1, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022
We describe the biological and chemical components of the environmental exposomes in three major environmental matrices that are highly relevant to human and social‐economical health—air, soil, and water. We discuss how different exposome components can interact with each other. Finally, we propose a list of outstanding challenges to be tackled to push

Long‐Lasting Hydrophilicity Induced by Ultraviolet Light on Surface Modified Hydrophobic Polylactic Acid

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
In light of increasing applications of compostable materials, surface treatment on PLA to increase roughness and hydrophobicity has been investigated. However, modifying wettability might hinder degradation. UVC exposure has significant effects on the wettability of textured PLA substrates, allowing a complete wettability switch due to chain scission ...

Forging the Industrial Metaverse -- Where Industry 5.0, Augmented and Mixed Reality, IIoT, Opportunistic Edge Computing and Digital Twins Meet [PDF]

open access: yesT. M. Fern\'andez-Caram\'es and P. Fraga-Lamas, "Forging the Industrial Metaverse for Industry 5.0: Where Extended Reality, IIoT, Opportunistic Edge Computing, and Digital Twins Meet," in IEEE Access, vol. 12, pp. 95778-95819, 2024
The Metaverse is a concept that proposes to immerse users into real-time rendered 3D content virtual worlds delivered through Extended Reality (XR) devices like Augmented and Mixed Reality (AR/MR) smart glasses and Virtual Reality (VR) headsets. When the Metaverse concept is applied to industrial environments, it is called Industrial Metaverse, a ...

The effect of spatial scales on the reproductive fitness of plant pathogens [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
Plant diseases often cause serious yield losses in agriculture. A pathogen's reproductive fitness can be quantified by the basic reproductive number, R0. Since pathogen transmission between host plants depends on the spatial separation between them, R0 is strongly influenced by the spatial scales of pathogen dispersal and the spatial scales of the host

A synthetic platform for developing recombinant adeno‐associated virus type 8 producer cell lines

open access: yesBiotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract Recombinant adeno‐associated virus (rAAV) is one of the most widely used viral vectors for gene therapy. It is used in very high doses for the treatment of many diseases, making large‐scale production for clinical applications challenging. We have established a synthetic biology‐based platform to construct stable production cell lines, which ...
