Progress in the detection of gut microbiota based on microfluidic technology
Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Gut microbiota, a complex microbial community in the human intestine, are vital for digestion, nutrient absorption, and immune regulation, maintaining gut micro‐ecological balance. Accurate detection of its composition, structure, and function is crucial for understanding the relationship between health and disease, early disease diagnosis ...

Translation of peptidoglycan metabolites into immunotherapeutics
Clinical & Translational Immunology, 2019 The discovery of defined peptidoglycan metabolites that activate host immunity and their specific receptors has revealed fundamental insights into host–microbe recognition and afforded new opportunities for therapeutic development against infection and ...

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.The sulfonated zwitterionic photosensitizer (PYSO3) is synthesized by reacting maleic anhydride derivatives with 4‐aminopyridine to form PY, followed by sulfonation with 1,4‐butane sultone. It exhibits both photothermal and photodynamic properties, enabling effective eradication of MRSA and biofilms, as well as promoting wound healing in mice ...

Macromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.Magnetoelectric P(VDF‐TrFE) nanocomposites containing CFO or Fe3O4 nanoparticles were developed to generate electroactive microenvironments under magnetic stimulation. At 1 Hz, particularly with 20% CFO, strong antimicrobial effects were observed against E. coli and S. aureus. This approach highlights the potential of magnetically activated surfaces to

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Sulfonium‐based antimicrobial block copolymers combine an active cationic hydrophobic block with a neutral hydrophilic block to improve cytocompatibility. The hydrophobicity of the sulfonium‐based block controls the activity against S. aureus and E coli.

Uncovering Key Characteristics of Antibacterial Peptides through Machine Learning
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Machine‐learning (ML) techniques using random forest classification models revealed key characteristics that predict effective antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) targeting Gram‐negative bacteria, Gram‐positive bacteria, and mycobacteria. The ideal cLogP (<$ < $−6) and net‐charge (≤+4) threshold was the same for all three targets with variations in the ...

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.PBSA‐based biocomposites made from artichoke bract and stem powders have been characterised and formulated for agricultural and food applications, such as active mulching films. ABSTRACT In the context of a growing bioeconomy and the drive for sustainable materials, new biocomposites were formulated by incorporating poly(butylene succinate‐co‐adipate) (
