Natural antibacterial silk produced by feeding silkworms with human hair derived carbon dots

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
Blue‐fluorescent and antibacterial carbon dots, prepared from Crinis Carbonisatus (a traditional Chinese medicine made by calcinating human hair), are fed to silkworms to produce multifunctional silk, which retains its inherent mechanical properties, exhibits blue fluorescence, possesses antibacterial activity, and promotes the wound healing of rats as

Solar‐Powered Water Depollution Through a Bioinspired Device Based on ZIF‐8 Loaded Macroporous Hydrogels Prepared via Ice‐Templating

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water pollution poses a constant threat to the environment and is one of the central causes for global shortage of clean water. Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as highly efficient adsorbents; however, their application is limited by their common production as fine powders, which hinders recovery and reuse.

Hierarchical Peptide Functionalized Titania Nanotubes: Improving Stability, Promoting Osteogenesis, and Reducing Infection Risk

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
The study demonstrates a dual‐level modification of titania nanotube surfaces through the covalent grafting of Fmoc‐FF dipeptides, followed by a secondary self‐assembled layer of FF dipeptide. This hierarchical strategy significantly enhances coating density and structural integrity without compromising the nano‐topographical and biochemical cues ...
