Review of Gastrointestinal Capsule Robots: Materials, Actuation, Diagnostics, and Therapeutics
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This review examines gastrointestinal capsule robots through a systems engineering lens, covering shell materials, actuation and localization strategies, diagnostic modalities, therapeutic interventions, and commercialization status. By mapping the complete technological chain from fabrication to clinical deployment, this work identifies critical gaps ...

Complementary correlation between surface microbubble and droplet shapes
AIP AdvancesPrevious atomic force microscopy studies have suggested that surface micro- and nanobubbles exhibit a flat shape. In this study, we directly observed surface microbubbles formed in an NH3BH3 solution using an optical microscope. No flat microbubbles were

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Schematic representation of ultrasound‐mediated ICG/siCD24@MSN‐LCD from nanostructure to synergistic sono‐gene therapy. This nanoplatform targets ASGPR via the LCD shell, which dissociates to release loaded ICG and siCD24. The core mechanism involves ultrasound‐guided sonodynamic therapy by ICG and CD24 knockdown by siCD24, both activating the p53 axis

Magnetic resonance imaging of oxygen microbubbles
Healthcare Technology Letters, 2019 Oxygen loaded microbubbles are being investigated as a means of reducing tumour hypoxia in order to improve response to cancer therapy. To optimise this approach, it is desirable to be able to measure changes in tissue oxygenation in real-time during ...

Sonoselective Transfection of Glioma Endothelium
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Delivering non‐viral, gene‐bearing nanoparticles with thiol‐decorated surfaces to gliomas with focused ultrasound yields transfection tropism for endothelial cells. From this platform, “sonoselective” transfection of glioma endothelium is achieved via incorporation of an endothelial cell‐specific promoter.

Simple processing technology of leaching water using CO2 microbubbles
, 2015 The effectiveness of CO2 microsize bubbles for removal of Ca2+ ions in the leaching water discharged from the final landfill site was evaluated using imitation water. For the important parameter in the Ca2+ ion removal, it was found that the treatment in

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A yolk–shell PTFE‐based composite (YSP) enables tunable, robust hydrophobic–water interfaces for efficient, on‐demand sonocatalytic H2O2 generation and pollutant degradation. ABSTRACT The use of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) particles to promote sonochemical H2O2 production has attracted growing interest, as cavitation bubbles formed at or near their ...
