Influence of storage conditions, packaging, post-harvest technology, nanotechnology and molecular approaches on shelf life of microgreens

Journal of Agriculture and Food Research, 2023
Microgreens have achieved importance recently due to their high nutritive value, easiness of cultivation and year round availability. However, being very tender and having high moisture content, their shelf life is too short.

An Integrated Oxygen‐Supplying Device and Predictive Multiphysics Model for Extended Ambient Transport of Insulin‐Producing Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cell therapies typically rely on cold‐chain logistics and cryopreservation, limiting access and compromising cell quality. Here, a dual‐chamber device separates an oxygen‐supplying chamber from a hyaluronic acid cargo chamber, sustaining oxygen delivery for over 70 h and enabling ambient‐temperature shipment.

Confinement in Metal‐Organic Frameworks as a Route to Harnessing Liquid Barocalorics in the Solid‐State

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Encapsulation of solid–liquid barocalorics (BC) within MOFs harnesses their colossal BC performance whilst allowing active control of BC properties through BC‐MOF interactions. ABSTRACT Barocaloric (BC) effects at liquid–vapor transitions in hydrofluorocarbons drive most commercial technologies used for heating and cooling in the heating, ventilation ...

Protein‐Nanoarchitectures for Low‐Field Intracellular Electro‐Immunomodulation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
DHQ‐SDH‐mediated binding of AuNPs drives the formation of interconnected, chain‐like nanoarchitectures with enhanced electrical conductivity. These conductive assemblies undergo macrophage uptake and enable low‐field electrical stimulation, promoting M1‐to‐M2 phenotypic switching with decreased iNOS and increased CD206 expression. Such protein‐mediated
