Modular Polymers With Tuneable Charge and Amphiphilicity for Effective Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
A modular dual‐strategy platform combining free radical copolymerisation and post‐polymerisation modification yields a library of ruthenium‐functionalised polymers for antimicrobial photodynamic therapy. Tuneable composition and net charge govern activity against multidrug‐resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms and Staphylococcus aureus under ...

Environmental pollution and sustainable restoration of the Yamuna River: A review of water quality, health risks, and phycoremediation

River, EarlyView.
Abstract The Yamuna River, one of India's most significant river systems and the largest tributary of the Ganges River, serves critical ecological, socio‐economic, and cultural functions. However, rapid urbanization, industrialization, and intensive agriculture have severely degraded its water quality, resulting in extensive pollution with untreated ...

Osmotic Remodeling of Extracellular Vesicles for Precision Nanomedicine

Small, EarlyView.
Hypotonic lysis in bidistilled water is used to remodel B lymphocyte–derived extracellular vesicles into cargo‐depleted, structurally preserved nanovesicles. The process reduces intraluminal proteins and nucleic acids, reshapes membrane composition, and enhances tumor‐cell uptake in vitro, while allowing proof‐of‐concept reloading with exogenous agents,

Laser‐Assisted In Situ Fabrication of rGO/Bi2O3 Nanocomposites for Heavy Metal Sensing

Small, EarlyView.
Rapid CO2 laser irradiation drives the in situ formation of Bi2O3 nanoplatelets within reduced graphene oxide, yielding flexible, reproducible electrodes with excellent stripping voltammetric performance toward trace heavy metals. ABSTRACT In this work, we introduce a laser‐assisted approach to synthesize reduced graphene oxide/bismuth oxide (III) (rGO/

One‐Step, High‐Yield Deconstruction of Kraft Lignin Into a Redox‐Active Small Molecule Using Sonicated Emulsive Water Microdroplets

Small, EarlyView.
This study reports a rapid (∼20 min), uncatalyzed deconstruction of Kraft lignin (∼14.2 kDa) using sonicated emulsive water microdroplets (SEWMs) in the presence of 2.5 M HNO3. The work demonstrates the combined synergistic effect of sonochemical excitation and microdroplet redox chemistry to induce C─C bond cleavage and reductive nitration to ...

Electroconductive MXene‐Thin‐Film‐Composite Membranes for Coupled Osmotic Concentration and PFAS Mineralization

Small, EarlyView.
An electroconductive MXene‐TFC membrane integrates osmotic dewatering with anodic oxidation to concentrate and mineralize PFOA at the membrane interface. The coupled AO‐PRO configuration accelerates degradation kinetics, achieves 99% rejection and up to 93% TOC removal, and lowers specific energy demand, offering a compact route for PFAS destruction ...

Engineering In Vitro Models of Skeletal Muscle With Neuromuscular Junctions Using Hierarchical Micro‐Nano Biomaterials: Cooperative Effect of Adhesion Ligand Nanoclustering and Surface Anisotropy

Small, EarlyView.
This study investigates the cooperative effects of adhesive ligand distribution, density, and biomaterial morphology for innervated skeletal muscle tissue engineering. Ligand nanoclusters were created in aligned micropatterns by electrospinning of a RAFT‐synthesized polymer with controlled ligand presentation.
