Nanopore and Self‐Assembled Monolayer Engineering of l‐Lactate Oxidase Gold Electrodes for Enhanced l‐Lactate Biosensing

Small, EarlyView.
A tiered nanoporous gold biointerface enables site‐directed immobilization of His‐tagged lactate oxidase through a mixed self‐assembled monolayer, achieving high enzyme loading while preserving activity. The resulting bioelectrode provides sensitive and stable l‐lactate detection (0.12–3.0 mM, 75 µA mM−1 cm−2), demonstrating a modular strategy for high‐

Tailoring MXene Flake Morphology via Aerosol Jet Printing for Biological and Strain Sensor Applications

Small, EarlyView.
Aerosol Jet Printing (AJP), coupled with a novel in situ monitoring method, enabled the controlled fabrication of aligned and crumpled Ti3C2Tx MXenes for diverse applications. Demonstrated across multiple 2D materials, this scalable strategy stablishes flake morphology as a controllable design parameter for engineering application‐specific material ...

Patterning of Artificial Cell Populations Via Laser Induced Forward Transfer for Controlled and Localized Cargo Uptake and Release

Small, EarlyView.
Polypeptide‐based complex coacervate artificial cells were prepared in situ within a viscoelastic matrix and adhered to the biomaterial ink, which was subsequently LIFT‐printed. The artificial cells preserved their structural stability during printing and retained biologically relevant properties, showing controlled cargo uptake and release ...

Fenestrated Microneedle Biosensor for Continuous In Vivo Lactate Monitoring in Interstitial Fluid

Small, EarlyView.
A fenestrated microneedle biosensor enables continuous transdermal monitoring of lactate in interstitial fluid while protecting the functional sensing interface during insertion into the skin. The platform delivers sensitive electrochemical lactate detection and distinguishes metabolic profiles in healthy and type 2 diabetic‐obese mice, and captures ...

Wrinkling Pickering Emulsions via Endospore Germination

Small, EarlyView.
This study presents a method for creating Pickering emulsions with long shelf life using bacterial endospores as stabilizers. Upon exposure to favorable conditions, spores germinate, swelland trigger wrinkling on droplet surfaces. The resulting patterns depend on initial interfacial coverage, enabling the change of droplet morphology on demand.

The 5T Paradox of Triclosan: From Toiletries to Toxic Trash, a Growing Threat to Humanity

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Triclosan (TCS) persists as a contaminant of concern in the Anthropocene, despite regulatory actions. Environmental dissemination continues through wastewater effluents, biosolid application, and improper disposal practices. This narrative review synthesizes current evidence regarding triclosan's environmental fate, transformation pathways ...
