Life‐Like Ferrous Oxide Microspheres from Kombucha

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Kombucha bacterial cellulose, sodium alginate, and ferrous nitrate self‐assemble into membrane‐enclosed iron oxide microspheres. These microspheres bud daughter vesicles, sustain 24‐h electrochemical oscillations, and filter theta‐band signals.

Optimization of osmotic dehydration of melons followed by air‐drying [PDF]

International Journal of Food Science & Technology, 2006
SummaryOsmotic dehydration represents a technological alternative to reduce post‐harvest losses of fruits. In this work, the influence of the osmotic solution concentration and osmotic solution to fruit weight ratio was examined on the osmotic dehydration of melons under vacuum.

A Self‐Cleaning Solar Evaporator Based on MXene/Aramid Nanofiber Aerogels for Efficient Water Desalination

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study develops a self‐cleaning solar evaporator based on MXene‐coated aramid nanofiber aerogels for efficient desalination under high‐salinity conditions. The cylindrical evaporator combines strong photothermal conversion, capillary water transport, and self‐rotation triggered by salt accumulation.

Light‐Controlled Localized Delamination and Blistering of Azobenzene‐Containing Polymer Thin Films in an Aqueous Environment

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
When exposed to light of a defined wavelength, the photoisomerization of azobenzene chromophores leads to polymer reorientation, generating stresses that result in solvent‐facilitated localized delamination of the film from the substrate. Additionally, blisters that form spontaneously when exposed to an aqueous environment can be manipulated via ...

In Situ Formation of Ni‐P‐O‐C Interfaces in DLP‐Printed Carbon Microlattices for Efficient Alkaline Hydrogen Evolution

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Graphical abstract illustrating the fabrication of Ni–P–O–C porous carbon microlattice electrodes by DLP printing of Ni/P precursor‐containing resin followed by high‐temperature carbonization. The resulting conductive microlattice acts directly as the HER cathode in alkaline electrolyte, where in situ formed Ni–P–O–C interfaces provide active sites for

Chitin‐Chitosan Cryogels for the Reversible Sequestration and Recovery of Heavy Metals From Wastewater

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Chitin‐chitosan cryogels with degrees of N‐acetylation from 12.2% to 71.4% are fabricated by dissolution, coagulation and lyophilization for the sequestration of heavy metals from water. Colorimetry and differential pulse voltammetry showed controlled adsorption and desorption capacities for As5+, Co2+ and Cu2+, making this material attractive for ...

Effect of osmotic drying on physicochemical properties of pansies (viola × wittrockiana)

International Journal of Food Studies, 2019
<p>The objective of this work was to study the effect of osmotic drying, using different hypertonic solutions (sucrose and sodium chloride), on physicochemical characteristics of pansies (Viola Ö wittrockiana). The same treatments were applied to lettuce to compare the behavior of flowers with other vegetables.

Region‐Specific Profiling of the Gut Microbiome and Metabolite Landscape in Response to Dietary Intervention Using Electronics‐Free Ingestible Smart Sampling Capsules

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Region‐specific profiling of the gut microbiome is achieved non‐invasively using electronics‐free ingestible sampling capsules that activate at defined intestinal sites through stimuli‐responsive coatings. Deployed in a porcine dietary intervention model, the capsules resolve spatially distinct, fiber‐driven shifts in microbial composition and short ...
