A Simulative Evaluation of Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Structures in the Context of Elastocaloric Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A simulative evaluation of triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) structures for an elastocaloric application under compressive load is performed. For the evaluation of the structure's performance, surface/volume ratio, generated heat and invested mechanical work are taken into account and are compared to a tube as a reference specimen.

Reliable Tissue Grasping in Robotic Minimally Invasive Surgery Enabled by Optical‐Based Slip Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An optical‐based slip sensing method using a complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor image sensor with a built‐in infrared light emitting diode enables real‐time detection of tissue slippage—including displacement, direction, and speed—in robotic minimally invasive surgery.

Patch-Clamp Analysis of the Mitochondrial H+ Leak in Brown and Beige Fat

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Mitochondria convert the chemical energy of metabolic substrates into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and heat. Although ATP production has become a focal point of research in bioenergetics, mitochondrial thermogenesis is also crucial for energy metabolism.

A geographically distributed bio-hybrid neural network with memristive plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Throughout evolution the brain has mastered the art of processing real-world inputs through networks of interlinked spiking neurons. Synapses have emerged as key elements that, owing to their plasticity, are merging neuron-to-neuron signalling with ...

3D Bioprinting of Thick Adipose Tissues with Integrated Vascular Hierarchies

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 18, 2025.
An advanced 3D bioprinting technique is used here to create thick adipose tissues with a central, vessel and extensive branching. The construct is made using alginate, gelatin and collagen‐based bioinks. Flow through the complex vessel network is demonstrated as well as its successful integration with a femoral artery following implantation in a rat ...

Modulation of a sustained calcium current by intracellular pH in horizontal cells of fish retina. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
A sustained high voltage-activated (HVA), nifedipine- and cadmium-sensitive calcium current and a sustained calcium action potential (AP) were recorded from horizontal cells isolated from catfish retina.

Self‐Poled Halide Perovskite Ruddlesden‐Popper Ferroelectric‐Photovoltaic Semiconductor Thin Films and Their Energy Harvesting Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Low‐dimensional halide perovskite thin films, (BA)2(MA)n‐1PbnBr3n+1 (n = 1, 2), exhibit both semiconducting and ferroelectric properties, enabling mechanical and light energy harvesting. Using Cr/Cr₂O₃ or PCBM as barrier layers ensures reproducible ferroelectricity.

Scorpion Venom peptide, AGAP inhibits TRPV1 and potentiates the analgesic effect of lidocaine

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
The current study was designed to test the hypothesis that BmK AGAP (AGAP) potentiates the analgesic effect of lidocaine. The chronic constrictive injury was performed on 72 rats to induce a rapid onset and long-lasting pain.
