Printing to Fight Antimicrobial Resistance Through Nano/Microstructured Platforms

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing enables the rational design of structured antimicrobial platforms across multiple length scales, from nanofibrous scaffolds and droplet microreactors to 3D and 4D printed constructs. By engineering confinement, interfacial chemistry, and stimuli‐responsive release, these systems exert localized action through complementary ...

Multi‐Spectral Gaussian Splatting with Neural Color Representation

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) [KKLD23] has transformed novel‐view synthesis from RGB images, yet remains restricted to the visible spectrum. Many applications, including agricultural monitoring, rely on multi‐spectral imaging, where spectral camera alignment and scalability pose major challenges.

Photocatalytic Transfer Hydrogenation Using Plastic Hydrolysates as Hydrogen Donor

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 25, 15 June 2026.
Plastic waste is transformed into functional amines via solar‐driven transfer hydrogenation. Soluble monomers from acid hydrolysis of waste polymers serve as a hydrogen (electron/proton)donors in the selective reduction of nitroarenes using a visible light active photocatalyst consisting of cobalt promoted molybdenum disulfide integrated in cyanamide ...

Thermal comfort - the extra-physical aspects

, 2022
Paper 210, 1 S.Standards define thermal comfort as a function of physical and thermo-physiological para-meters. From investigations of building related symptoms it is well known that satisfaction with the indoor environment also relates to extra-physical
