A new dual‐layer hydrogel barrier for preventing postoperative abdominal adhesions is developed. The inner layer, consisting of polyethyleneimine (PEI) and thioctic acid (TA), enhanced adhesion to moist tissues. The outer layer combines zwitterionic, thermoresponsive hyaluronic acid with anti‐inflammatory epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and forms a ...

Propofol inhibits prokaryotic voltage-gated Na+ channels by promoting activation-coupled inactivation [PDF]
Propofol is widely used in the clinic for the induction and maintenance of general anesthesia. As with most general anesthetics, however, our understanding of its mechanism of action remains incomplete.

Characterization of the Community Structure of Large-Scale Functional Brain Networks During Ketamine-Medetomidine Anesthetic Induction [PDF]
One of the main goals of neuroscience is to understand how an organism's cognitive capacities or physiological states are potentially related to brain activities that involve the interaction of multiple brain structures and cortical areas. A key feature of functional brain networks is that they are modularly structured, and this modular architecture is

Thermal Processing Creates Water‐Stable PEDOT:PSS Films for Bioelectronics
Instead of using chemical cross–linkers, it is shown that PEDOT:PSS thin films for bioelectronics become water‐stable after a simple heat treatment. The heat treatment is compatible with a range of rigid and elastomeric substrates and films are stable in vivo for >20 days.

Effect of Dibucaine on Phase Behavior of Ternary Liposome [PDF]
We investigated the effect of Dibucaine hydrochloride (DC$\cdot$HCl), one of the local anesthetics, on phase behavior of ternary liposome composed of dioleoylphosphatidylcholine (DOPC), dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), and cholesterol (Chol). The large DOPC/DPPC/Chol liposome, that is directly observable by optical microscope, is commonly known ...
