From Water Vapor Transmission Rate (WVTR) to Intrinsic Water Vapor Permeability (WVP)

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Breathable membranes can appear less permeable when the measurement apparatus limits vapor transport. A calibrated four‐step model describes membrane permeation and apparatus effects as resistances in series under a common chemical‐potential driving force.

Plasmonically Enhanced Microarray Immunoassay for High‐Sensitivity Monitoring of Heart Failure

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A novel plasmonically enhanced PE‐D4 assay combines nanopatch antennas with a microarray immunoassay for the detection of heart failure biomarkers NT‐proBNP, NGAL, and galectin‐3 in complex biological samples. Plasmonic amplification substantially enhances fluorescence signals, enabling sensitive biomarker quantification with a low‐cost smartphone ...

An Engineered Thio‐Amino Polymer Achieves Potent, Safe, and Broad Cell Type Delivery in the Lung Mapped by Spatial Transcriptomics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Synthesis and screening of a polymer library produced a versatile and inhalable mRNA vehicle for the lungs (P81). Compared to a published LNP, P81 provides increased delivery efficacy, achieving widespread expression in broad cell types, with no toxicity.

Using a Zero‐Strain Reference Electrode to Distinguish Anode and Cathode Volume Changes in a Solid‐State Battery

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Volume changes of a solid‐state battery cell are separated into the individual contributions of anode and cathode. Simultaneously determining the “reaction volumes” of both electrodes requires a reference electrode with a pressure‐independent potential.

Spontaneous Nanopatterning and Strain Relaxation in SiGe Layers Grown by Oxidative Solid‐Phase Epitaxy

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Thin SiGe buffer layers are grown by oxidative solid‐phase epitaxy, resulting in a nanopatterning of varying Ge concentration across the surface of the sample. The nanopatterning is caused by a hexagonal network of dislocations on the SiGe/Si(111) interface, and is visible by scanning electron microscopy, providing a non‐destructive method for ...

Outlier removal in cryo-EM via radial profiles

Journal of Structural Biology
The process of particle picking, a crucial step in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) image analysis, often encounters challenges due to outliers, leading to inaccuracies in downstream processing. In response to this challenge, this research introduces an additional automated step to reduce the number of outliers identified by the particle picker.

Electrospun PCL Fibers Enhanced With Molecularly Imprinted Polymers for the Adsorption of Pharmaceutical Drugs

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Electrospun polycaprolactone fiber mats embedded with diclofenac‐imprinted polymers were developed to remove persistent pharmaceutical pollutants from water. The materials showed improved adsorption and retention compared to pure polymer mats, with performance influenced by fiber diameter and polymer content.

Control of Bacterial Attachment on Macroporous PDMS/Paraffin SLIPS With Varying Lubricant Viscosity

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Slippery liquid‐infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) prepared from macroporous PDMS, infused with medical‐grade paraffins, were systematically investigated regarding the correlation of viscosity, surface corrugation, bulk porosity, and bacterial resistance. Substrate porosity was found to dominate lubricant stabilization and the antifouling activity.

Enhancing Broiler Weight Prediction via Preprocessed Kernel Density Estimation

Agriculture
Accurate broiler weight estimation in commercial farms is hindered by noisy scale data and multi-broiler occupancy. To address this challenge, we propose a KDE-based framework enhanced with systematic preprocessing, including coefficient of variation (CV)
