Structural changes of the rabbit retina after 14-days tamponade of the vitreal cavity with perfluoro-organic compounds

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2015
Introduction. Perfluoro-organic compounds (PFOC) have valuable qualities for vitreoretinal surgery and their application for short-term tamponade could expand indications for preoperative treatment and improve its results.

Novel micro‐capsule‐doped insulating material with hydrophobicity transfer capability triggered by creepage discharge

open access: yesHigh Voltage, 2022
The lack of hydrophobicity transfer capability has restricted the applications of insulating materials in environments with heavy contamination. In this study, an epoxy resin insulating composite was prepared using a micro‐capsule system to achieve ...

Charge‐Induced Morphing Gels for Bioinspired Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel electroactive actuation mechanism that enables the gel material to generate substantial and reversible shape‐changing while preserving topological and isochoric (volumetric) equivalence. The resultant morphing behaviors can mimic the movements of muscle‐driven organelles in nature, including cilia‐like beating and ...

An innovative, fast and facile soft-template approach for the fabrication of porous PDMS for oil-water separation

open access: yes, 2017
Oil wastewater and spilled oil caused serious environmental pollution and damage to public health in the last years. Therefore, considerable efforts are made to develop sorbent materials able to separate oil from water with high selectivity and sorption ...

High-speed video data for settling of dense liquid droplets through liquid media with different viscosities

open access: yesData in Brief, 2020
A dataset of high-speed video footage of mercury droplets settling through liquid media of different viscosities is presented. Video footage was taken at 4000 frames per second for mercury droplets at room temperature settling through either deionised ...

Block Copolymers: Emerging Building Blocks for Additive Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review addresses how block copolymer (BCP) physics and rheology have led to the widespread use of BCPs in advanced additive manufacturing techniques, with particular emphasis on the untapped potential of these nanostructured materials toward achieving multi‐scale architected materials with unique, programmable material properties.

Effect of PFCL versus heavy silicone oil on the structure and functional state of the rabbit retina

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2016
Background: The use of perfluorocarbon liquids (PFCL) and heavy silicone oil (HSO) for post-vitrectomy tamponade would potentially widen the range of indications for and improve outcomes of vitreoretinal surgery.

Mechanical and Electrical Phenotype of hiPSC‐Cardiomyocytes on Fibronectin‐Based Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We introduce fibronectin‐based PEG hydrogels with controlled rigidity to enable the culture of iPSC‐derived cardiomyocytes. These substrates offer an alternative to the current culture of these cells on fibronectin‐coated glass, providing enhanced structural and functional behavior. The system provides a more physiologically relevant platform to assess

Bioengineered Lymphatic Vessels in Synthetic Matrices to Study Breast Cancer Cell Functions

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Lymphatic vessels are involved in cancer metastasis. To study the interplay between metastasizing cancer cells and lymphatic vessels under highly reproducible conditions, advanced in vitro models are required. In this work, 3D lymphatic networks are formed in biomimetic hydrogels and their interactions with invasive and non‐invasive cancer cell‐lines ...
