Polypropylene Fiber’s Effect on the Features of Combined Cement-Based Tailing Backfill: Micro- and Macroscopic Aspects

Minerals
In undercut-and-fill mining, backfills show weak tensile strength and poor ductility properties since they act as artificial pillars to support stope roofs. Hence, the enhancement of the stability of mining structures and backfills is a crucial requisite for underground mining backfill operations.

Nanocellulose Alleviates Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy via Gut Microbiota‐Mediated Bile Acid Homeostasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanocellulose, derived from microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) through sulfuric acid hydrolysis or mechanical grinding to produce CNC or CNF, was tested in a rat ICP model. Particularly, CNF improved gut microbiota composition, reduced secondary bile acid metabolism, and restored bile acid homeostasis through modulation of the gut–liver axis.

Monitoring the Diameter Changes of Flax Fibre Elements during Twin Screw Extrusion Using X-Ray Computed Micro-Tomography

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2020
Fiber size aspect ratio is known to impact the mechanical and reinforcement properties of natural fiber-based composites. However, the representation of fiber diameter change occurring during the extrusion process is controversial compared to the length.

An Implantable Phototriggered Prodrug Depot Patch Enables Actively Programmable Drug Release for Post‐Myocardial Infarction Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An implantable phototriggered prodrug depot patch (iPDP) is presented that enables actively programmable drug release post‐implantation. Covalently conjugated prodrug ensures minimal leakage; illumination parameters serve as a code to precisely control dose per release.

In Situ Profiling of Nanoscale Strains Uncovers Mechano‐Architectural Predictors of Aging and Osteoarthritis Emergence

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In situ mechanical loading of osteoarthritis‐prone murine knee joints reveals that spatial alterations in subchondral plate microarchitecture precede cartilage loss and promote a shift from coordinated epiphyseal strain dissipation in healthy joints to focal subchondral strain concentration in osteoarthritis‐prone joints.
