Robust Bio‐Textiles Via Mycelium‐Cellulose Interface Engineering

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a new class of sustainable textiles by growing mycelium, the root‐like structure of fungi, into cellulose‐based fabrics. This semi‐interpenetrating mycelium‐cellulose fiber network combines the strength and breathability of natural fibers with the water‐resistant and adhesive properties of mycelium, resulting in a robust, scalable,

Selenium promotes broiler myoblast proliferation through the ROS/PTEN/PI3K/AKT signaling axis

Poultry Science
: Selenium (Se), an indispensable trace element in broiler chickens, is closely associated with the growth and development of skeletal muscles. However, the role of Se in the proliferation of broiler myoblasts and its specific biological mechanisms have ...

The effect of consumption volume on profile and liking of oral nutritional supplements of varied sweetness: sequential profiling and boredom tests [PDF]

, 2010
Oral nutrition supplements (ONS) are routinely prescribed to those with, or at risk of, malnutrition. Previous research identified poor compliance due to taste and sweetness.

Bio‐Inspired Nanoarchitected LiFePO4 Cathodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) is synthesized using a bio‐inspired method, using acidic macromolecules similar to those found in many calcareous mineralized organisms to modulate the morphology and crystal growth of LFP‐carbon composite particles. The observations from this process indicate a non‐classical crystallization process, which subsequently ...

Betaine decreases hepatic lipid deposition through DNA 5 mC and RNA m6A methylation-mediated regulation of fatty acid metabolic genes expression in laying hens

Poultry Science
As a methyl donor, betaine participates in hepatic lipid metabolism in mammals. Nevertheless, it is unclear whether and how dietary betaine affects hepatic lipid metabolism in laying hens.

Microneedle‐Based Biofertilizer Delivery Improves Plant Growth Through Microbiome Engineering

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This figure shows how microneedles are used to deliver biofertilizers to enhance plant growth through microbial migration, metabolic reprogramming, and changes in plant endogenous microbiome. Abstract This study presents a microneedle‐based system for the delivery of rhizospheric biofertilizers into plant tissues to enhance growth.
