Force stimulation promotes nerve regeneration by restoring cellular energy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Mechanical stimulation can help nerves regenerate in various ways. We developed two devices (a piezo‐motor‐driven stretching device and a SAW‐based actuator) to apply mechanical stimulation to sciatic nerve and DRG neurons. Our study shows that appropriate mechanical force stimulation can promote regeneration by restoring the energy supply to the ...

Development of a co‐culture of Ureibacillus thermosphaericus and Cupriavidus taiwanensis for inhibitors removal from hemicellulose prehydrolysate

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
For biofuels production, hemicellulose pre‐hydrolysate is considered as an attractive feedstock rich in fermentable sugars. The pre‐hydrolysate derived from lignocellulosic biomass comprises, along with sugars, several inhibitors which can hamper its efficient conversion.

Recent strides toward transforming lignin into plastics and aqueous electrolytes for flow batteries

iScience
Summary: Lignin is an abundant polyaromatic polymer with a wide range of potential future uses. However, the conversion of lignin into valuable products comes at a cost, and medium- to high-value applications are thus appropriate.

Electrophilic Functionalization of Donor‐Stabilized Phosphanylboranes: A New Pathway toward Heavy 13/14/15 Parent Hydride‐Containing Compounds

ChemistryEurope, EarlyView.
A new way of obtaining mixed 13/14/15 hydride containing compounds stabilized only by a Lewis base is presented. The functionalization of IDipp·BH2PH2 (IDipp = 1,3‐Bis‐(2,6‐diisopropylphenyl)‐imidazolin‐2‐ylidene) by main group electrophiles leads to the formation of the compounds [IDipp·BH2PH2E]+ [E = H, CH3 SiEt3, Ge(SiMe3)3, SnMe3) which represent a

Selective Oxidation Strategies for Cost‐Efficient Green Hydrogen Production via Hybrid Water Electrolysis

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Hybrid water electrolysis has emerged as a promising alternative to conventional electrolysis for sustainable hydrogen production. The economic potential of replacing water oxidation with organic substrates is assessed. For each substrate, representative electrocatalysts and mechanistic insights are reviewed to identify design principles for optimized ...
