High‐Density Flexible Neural Implants with Submicron Feedline Resolution
Optimization of microfabrication methods using optical contact lithography (OCL) and electron beam lithography (EBL) enables the fabrication of 64‐channel, high‐density, parylene‐C‐based intracortical implants with submicron feedlines as narrow as 400 and 50 nm, respectively.

Diosgenin ameliorates silica‐induced tuberculosis in rats
Silicosis increases susceptibility to tuberculosis due to impaired macrophage function and oxidative stress. This study demonstrates that diosgenin, a steroidal saponin, significantly inhibits Mycobacterium smegmatis (IC₅₀ = 0.006 μg/mL), reduces lung fibrosis, and restores antioxidant enzyme levels (↑SOD, ↑CAT, ↓MDA) in silica‐exposed rats ...

Template assisted surface micro microstructuring of flowable dental composites and its effect on the microbial adhesion properties [PDF]
Despite their various advantages, such as good esthetic properties, absence of mercury and adhesive bonding to teeth, modern dental composites still have some drawbacks, e.g., a relatively high rate of secondary caries on teeth filled with composite ...

Who was the real sabertooth predator: Thylacosmilus or Thylacoleo?
Abstract Sabertoothed mammalian predators, all now extinct, were almost exclusively feloid carnivorans (Eutheria, Placentalia): here a couple of extinct metatherian predators are considered in comparison with the placental sabertooths. Thylacosmilus (the “marsupial sabertooth”) and Thylacoleo (the “marsupial lion”) were both relatively large (puma ...
