Potential impact and mechanism of aged polyethylene microplastics on nitrogen assimilation of Lactuca sativa L.

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Nitrogen (N) is the driving factor for crop yield and quality, and more research is needed on the mechanisms of aged micro/nano plastics (MNPs) on N assimilation in edible crops.

A Systematic Study of GelMA‐Carbopol Bioinks for High‐Fidelity Extrusion 3D Bioprinting at Physiological Temperatures

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Gonzalez Martinez and collaborators develop a strategy to formulate high performance GelMA‐based bioinks with low solids contents. The resulting bioinks enable 3D bioprinting at 37 °C of high‐fidelity structures with tunable mechanical properties that support high cell viability and function.

One-step degradation of 4 classes of β-lactam using β-lactamase enzyme cocktail

Scientific Reports
Antibiotics, particularly β-lactams, are emerging environmental contaminants that induce antibiotic-resistant bacteria or genes, which threaten public health. Enzymatic degradation is an environmentally friendly approach to reducing residual antibiotics;

Cellulose powder from olive industry solid waste

BioResources, 2012
In the present work, a method for extracting cellulose from olive industry solid waste has been developed. The method involves subjecting solid olive waste to kraft pulping, followed by multistep bleaching processes. The totally free chlorine chemical bleaching sequence APEP was the most effective and gave an average cellulose yield of about 35%.

Cellular Responses to Mechanical Cues Across Scales: From Fundamental Insights to Translational Potential

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines how cellular behavior is regulated by mechanical cues transmitted through soft biomaterials, from single‐cell mechanosensing to tissue‐level adaptation. It highlights why physiological relevance, rather than model complexity alone, is critical for translational mechanobiology and introduces a scoring framework linking material ...
