Stress Response of Aspergillus niger Spores to Copper Surfaces and the Implications for Antifungal Surface Functionalization

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study investigates the antifungal efficacy of ultrashort pulsed laser‐induced periodic surface structures (USP‐DLIP) on copper, brass, and steel surfaces. Using Aspergillus niger as a model, the research highlights a 99% reduction in spore viability on 9 µm structured copper surfaces due to enhanced copper ion release. Scanning electron microscopy

A new method for the separation of androgens from estrogens and for the partition of estriol from the estrone-estradiol fraction: with special reference to the identification and quantitative microdetermination of estrogens by ultraviolet absorption spectrophotometry [PDF]

, 1948
It is recognized generally that a qualitative and quantitative knowledge of the excretion pattern of the urinary estrogens is one index to an understanding of the functional activity of the ovary and adrenal cortex.

3D Printed Magnetic Origami Scaffolds for Guided Tissue Assembly

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
3D‐printed magnetic origami scaffolds enhance 3D coculture by directing cell proliferation pre‐folding, restricting expansion for controlled growth within the channel, and spatially and temporally promoting 3D multicellular dissemination post‐folding.

The Inner Quality Concept for food, based on life processes [PDF]

, 2003
How can we adequately express the quality of food produced by organic agriculture? To answer this research question, we defined a concept of ‘inner quality’ (formerly called ‘vital quality’) based on the life processes growth and differentiation, and ...

Durable Bio‐Based Nanocomposite Coating on Urinary Catheters Prevents Early‐Stage CAUTI‐Associated Pathogenicity

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A stable bio‐based nanocomposite coating for urinary catheters is developed using a simple, environmentally‐friendly sonochemical process. The coating, integrating antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and antioxidant properties, effectively tackled multiple early‐stage pathogenic factors associated with catheter‐associated urinary tract infections.

Microfluidic Spinning of PEDOT:PSS Microfibers for Nerve Guidance Conduits

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This publication explores the fabrication of microfluidically spun PEDOT:PSS microfibers for conductive nerve guidance conduits (NGCs). It details the spinning process, fiber characterization, and biocompatibility assessment. The study highlights the fibers' mechanical and electrical properties, non‐cytotoxicity, and potential for nerve regeneration or

Rapid Electro‐Thermal Micro‐Actuation of Flat Optics Enabled by Laser‐Induced Graphene on Colorless Polyimide Substrates

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Laser‐induced graphene (LIG) on a colorless polyimide (CPI) substrate functions as both an electrical heater and a heat spreader, enabling rapid electro‐thermo‐optic actuation. The system achieves reflective beam scanning up to 2 kHz and diffractive beam steering with 0.5‐millidegree resolution and a 0.9 s response time, showcasing LIG‐CPI as a soft ...
