Wafer‐Scale Integration of α‐quartz Thin Films toward Super High Frequency Piezoelectric bioNEMS for Chikungunya Virus Detection

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Epitaxial piezoelectric α‐quartz/Si BioNEMS sensors, made using soft chemistry, effectively detect the Chikungunya virus. They have a mass sensitivity of 205 pg Hz−1 in liquid and can detect the virus at a limit of 9 ng mL−1. This development enables high‐frequency mass devices for point‐of‐care testing in healthcare and other electronic applications ...

An Innovative “Tooth‐On‐Chip” Microfluidic Device Emulating the Structure and Physiology of the Dental Pulp Tissue

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a “tooth‐on‐chip” device that mimics dental pulp tissue. By co‐culturing key cell types, it recreates vascular networks, stem cell niches, the odontoblast/dentine interface, and trigeminal innervation. This innovative platform provides a unique model of dental pulp structure and physiology, with significant potential for accelerating
