A Degradable Device for Sustainable Capillary Blood Sampling

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The device features a compostable 3D‐printed storage compartment for liquid blood collection and a degradable, poly(ɛ‐caprolactone)‐coated magnesium microneedle patch hidden within a suction cup. Manual compression deploys the MNs, creating small skin punctures, and the subsequent release of compression generates the negative pressure required for ...

Exploring the Immobilization Strategies of Lewis Bases on Lignocellulosic Bamboo Shavings and their Applications in Cycloaddition of CO2 and CO2 Derivatives

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
Biobased bamboo shavings are used to immobilize Lewis base catalysts for CO2 valorization. Two methods are investigated for immobilization of catalysts: covalent isocyanate coupling and silane condensation. The isocyanate method achieves 100% conversion of cyclic carbonate starting from epoxides, whereas the silane method yields glycerol carbonate with
