Mechanochromic Organic Materials: Molecular Mechanisms and Multidimensional Applications
Advanced Physics Research, Volume 5, Issue 2, February 2026.Mechanochromic (MC) organic materials change color in response to mechanical force. This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms (e.g., aggregation‐induced emission, AIE) and explores their multidimensional applications in sensors, anti‐counterfeiting, biomedical devices, and structural health monitoring, providing a roadmap for future smart ...

Flow Cytometry: A Novel Approach for Indirect Assessment of Protamine Deficiency by CMA3 Staining, Taking into Account the Presence of M540 or Apoptotic Bodies [PDF]
International Journal of Fertility and Sterility, 2011 Background Chromomycin A3 (CMA3) staining, either by the slide method or fluorescence microscopy, is widely used for indirect assessment of protamine deficiency in a semen sample. Flow cytometry is the most suitable tool to improve assessment accuracy,

Synthesis and characterisation of spiropyran-polymer brushes in micro-capillaries: towards an integrated optical sensor for continuous flow analysis [PDF]
, 2011 Fused silica-capillaries were successfully functionalised with spiropyran-polymer brushes using spiropyran functionalised norbornyl derivative as monomer. The polymerisation was achieved by surface-initiated ring- opening metathesis polymerisation.

Biocompatible Ink Optimization Enables Functional Volumetric Bioprinting With Xolography
Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 6, 27 January 2026.Xolography's reliance on weak‐base co‐initiators introduces unique biochemical constraints. By dissecting the effects of extracellular pH, osmolality, and lysosomotropic stress, this study defines the biochemical design space that enables fully biocompatible, cell‐laden volumetric printing. Abstract Xolography is a novel linear volumetric manufacturing
