A narrow bandgap Schottky heterojunction Fe2N/CeO2 microneedle triggering sonodynamic reactive oxygen species storm for drug‐resistance‐free skin fungal infection

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Inorganic sonosensitizers suffer from inefficient electron‐hole separation, rapid recombination, and wide bandgaps in anti‐fungal applications. We propose MN@Fe2N/CeO2 to directly eliminate fungi without drug resistance. Combining semiconductor CeO2's advantages with Fe2N's high work function and activity enables efficient Schottky heterojunctions ...

Tannic acid–metal biomaterials for skin repair: Principles, immune microenvironment modulation, and translational perspectives

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Tannic acid–metal materials are emerging as versatile wound biomaterials, but their value depends on more than multifunctionality. This review maps how tannic acid alone, free metal ions, and coordinated TA–metal systems differ in design logic, immune‐microenvironment effects, and translational potential, offering a practical framework for choosing ...

Hepatic iron overload in transfusion-dependent paediatric thalassemia (TDT) patients: association of magnetic resonance imaging with serum ferritin level

Egyptian Liver Journal
Background Chronic blood transfusions cause iron overload in patients with transfusion-dependent thalassemia (TDT). Iron accumulation in vital organs must be monitored and controlled to avoid long-term consequences.

Green and sustainable synthesis of magnetite from copper slag via citrate complexation for methylene blue dye removal from water

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study proposes a novel, green, and sustainable method for synthesizing magnetic iron oxides from metallurgical copper slag (CS), leveraging its iron content as a valuable resource. Iron was extracted via acid leaching using edible citric acid (ECA), forming a citrate–iron complex (CSL), which was subsequently thermally decomposed at 300°C
