Functional and Pasting Properties of Gari Produced from White-fleshed Cassava Roots as Affected by Packaging Materials and Storage Periods, and Sensory Attributes of the Cooked Gari Dough (eba)

International Journal of Food Studies, 2021
Gari (roasted fermented cassava grits) is the most popular product consumed in West Africa and an important food product in the diet of millions of people in developing countries.

Mouldable multicomponent low molecular weight supergelators

Supramolecular Chemistry, 2023
A significant drawback of gels formed from low molecular weight gelators (LMWGs) is their typically poor mechanical stability due to the weak non-covalent interactions responsible for forming the gel. Here, we present a rare example of bicomponent gels prepared from LMWGs that show excellent mechanical stability even at <0.7 wt.% gelator loading ...

Can improved cassava genotypes from the breeding program substitute the adopted variety for gari production? Biophysical and textural attributes approach

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2022
The use of the biophysical and textural attributes of gari/eba to determine the possible substitution of an adopted cassava variety (TMBE419) with the improved genotypes from the breeding program was evaluated in this study.

A soft magnetic material for power supply systems of high energy physics experiments

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
Most of the high energy physics experiments require their detectors to be embedded in a high intensity magnetic field. In particular the biggest of them, ATLAS, running in the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) particle accelerator, generates a field of 2 ...

A Case Report of Periodontal Regeneration in Failing Tooth by Single Flap Approach Using Sticky Bone and Platelet-rich Fibrin Membrane [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Periodontal regeneration aims to regenerate the diseased or lost periodontium. Regenerative periodontal therapy utilises growth factors, autogenous soft and hard tissue grafts for the purpose of regeneration.

From Food to Power: Hydrogel Thermoelectrics for Ingestible Electronics

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We introduce a fully edible thermoelectric–electrochromic platform that harvests heat from food and converts it into a visible color change. N‐type and p‐type hydrogel thermoelectric generators connected in series power anthocyanin‐based electrochromic displays, demonstrating the feasibility of safe, biodegradable, ingestible systems for on‐food ...

Texoskeletons: Developing the Fundamental Technologies for Creating Intelligent Soft Robotic Clothing With Integrated 1D Sensors and Actuators

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traditional wearable exoskeletons rely on rigid structures, which limit comfort, flexibility, and everyday usability. This work introduces the fundamental technologies to create the first soft, lightweight, intelligent textile‐based exoskeletons (Texoskeletons) built using 1D sensors and actuators.

Transfer Printing and Reconfiguration of Soft Electronics Using Digital Microfluidics and Laser Machining

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This paper presents a digital microfluidics‐based technique for transferring and reconfiguring soft nanomembranes. Laser‐machined nanothin membranes are picked up, transported, and aligned via tailored surface tension and the actuation of water droplets, enabling the development of flexible electronics, the integration of functional materials on 3D ...

Aqueous Two‐Phase Bioinks for Discrete Packing and Compartmentalization of 3D Bioprinted Cells

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Aqueous two‐phase systems (ATPS) enable the formation of biomimetic interfaces crucial for tissue engineering. However, clinical translation remains limited by the challenge of precisely controlling cellular compartmentalization. Here, we developed ATPS biomaterial inks for 3D bioprinting allowing tuneable droplet formation via NaCl modulation.
