Tannic acid–metal materials are emerging as versatile wound biomaterials, but their value depends on more than multifunctionality. This review maps how tannic acid alone, free metal ions, and coordinated TA–metal systems differ in design logic, immune‐microenvironment effects, and translational potential, offering a practical framework for choosing ...

Applications of Biomaterials in Separators for Secondary Batteries
In this review, biomaterial‐based separators are reviewed as sustainable alternatives to conventional polyolefin‐based separators. For 12 different natural polymers, spanning from Protista, Plantae, and Animalia, viable strategies for synthesizing biomass‐based separators are described.

A series of N‐acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc)‐based electrophilic inhibitors targeting Ape esterase was synthesized. Their inhibitory potency ranged from micromolar to submillimolar. The study probed binding contributions of stem peptide extension, replacing the anomeric methyl group with a benzyl, and α‐fluorination of the carbonyl to enhance ...

Although sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are recommended for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD), concerns regarding urogenital infections persist. Therefore, we evaluated the risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) and genital tract infection (GTI) after SGLT2i initiation in this population ...
