Hydration-Induced Phase Transitions in Surfactant and Lipid Films

open access: yes, 2016
For several surfactant and lipid systems, it is crucial to understand how hydration influences the physical and chemical properties. When humidity changes, it affects the degree of hydration by adding or removing water molecules.

Strain‐Programmable Luminescent Adhesive Patch With Tartrazine‐Mediated Optical Skin Clearing for Photochemical Tissue Bonding

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We propose a suture‐complementary approach that integrates optical skin clearing with a strain‐programmable luminescent adhesive patch. Hyaluronic acid promotes transdermal delivery of tartrazine to improve optical clearing and stabilizes its interaction with a photosensitizer. Optical clearing increases the penetration depth of visible light into skin,

Receptor‐Free Identification of Toxic Gases Enabled by Hygroscopic Aqueous Salt Films

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Water as a gas sensor coating sounds impossible—until it stops evaporating. Here, hygroscopic salt solutions (LiCl, LiBr, H3PO4) form non‐drying aqueous films on CNT chemiresistors under ambient air. Gases partition into these liquid layers, sometimes transforming into water, and generate salt‐specific resistance fingerprints across a four‐channel ...

The Impact of Hydration on Metabolic Outcomes: From Arginine-Vasopressin Signaling to Clinical Implications

open access: yesMedicina
Arginine-vasopressin peptide (AVP) plays a critical role in water balance and osmoregulation. However, emerging evidence suggests that AVP’s actions may expand beyond its traditional role, significantly influencing metabolic regulation, including glucose

Regulated Ion‐Diffusion Hydrogels for Subtle and Multimodal Temperature‐Strain Sensing in Wound Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A soft, dual‐channel hydrogel patch enables simultaneous detection of wound temperature and strain by integrating ion‐diffusion‐mediated thermoelectric and resistive sensing. The conformal design maintains stable performance during motion, capturing subtle inflammatory and mechanical changes for continuous wound monitoring.

Evaluating water-induced wellbore instability in shale formations: a comparative analysis of transversely isotropic strength criteria

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
This study addresses wellbore instability in shale formations by conducting mechanical experiments on bedded shale samples with varying hydration times. We fitted experimental data using two anisotropic strength criteria to determine the shale’s strength
