Tumbling Magnetic Microrobots for Targeted In Vivo Drug Delivery in the GI Tract

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We introduce a microrobot design and integrated system for on‐demand targeted drug release in the gastrointestinal tract. The microrobot has an embedded magnet for actuation with external magnetic fields and is visualized in real time using ultrasound. It has two drug release ports sealed with a thermally sensitive wax. Local heating of the wax using a

Gamma radiosensitivity study on wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum)

Open Agriculture, 2020
Fifty wheat seed variety (var.) CIRNO C2008 were gamma irradiated with 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, or 600 Gy by using a Cobalt-60 source at 907.39 Gy/h, and the nonirradiated seeds were considered the control (M0).

Cinnamic‐Hydroxamic‐Acid Derivatives Exhibit Antibiotic, Anti‐Biofilm, and Supercoiling Relaxation Properties by Targeting Bacterial Nucleoid‐Associated Protein HU

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cinnamic‐hydroxamic‐acid derivatives (CHADs) are identified as novel inhibitors of the bacterial nucleoid‐associated protein HU, exhibiting potent antibacterial, anti‐biofilm (both inhibition and eradication), and DNA relaxation (anti‐supercoiling) activities. Moreover, CHADs demonstrate strong synergistic effects with multiple antibiotics.

Genome‐Wide Codon Reprogramming Enables a Multifactorially Attenuated Influenza Vaccine with Broad Cross‐Protection

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Genome‐wide codon reprogramming of influenza A virus introduces 1956 synonymous mutations across five segments and elevates CpG content, causing defective NA packaging, loss of NS1 accumulation, and enhanced ZAP‐mediated antiviral responses without affecting RNA or protein synthesis. These mechanisms result in profound attenuation and potent homologous

AI‐Based D‐Amino Acid Substitution for Optimizing Antimicrobial Peptides to Treat Multidrug‐Resistant Bacterial Infection

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study constructed the first D‐amino acid antimicrobial peptide dataset and developed an AI model for efficient screening of substitution sites, with 80% of candidate peptides showing enhanced activity. The lead peptide dR2‐1 demonstrated potent antimicrobial activity in vitro and in vivo, high stability, and low toxicity.

Effects of imidacloprid on Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) larval biology and locomotory behavior

European Journal of Entomology, 2000
The effects of imidacloprid on 1-day-old third instars of Harmonia axyridis were assessed by topical treatment and contact with treated glass plates in laboratory bioassays. When 5 µl of imidacloprid solutions were applied topically, the LD50 was 0.085 g/
