All‐Round Talent: Unique Zinc Guanidine Catalyst Performs Efficiently in Synthesis and Chemical Recycling of (Bio)Polyesters

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A new zinc hybrid guanidine catalyst [Zn{(R,R)TMGNMe2(1,2)ch}2](OTf)2 (C1) shows very high catalytic activity in the polymerization of cyclic esters and in the depolymerization of these polyesters. Using C1 in the ring‐opening polymerization of lactide and caprolactone under industrially relevant conditions, astonishing rate constants of the same order

Environmental and Ecological Monitoring with Biodegradable Technologies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review examines the development and application of wireless biodegradable sensors for environmental monitoring. It explores (bio)degradable materials, their degradation mechanisms in various environments, and non‐toxic fabrication techniques. Additionally, it addresses scalable production and sustainable powering solutions, emphasizing the high ...

Cyclic Strain and Macrophage‐Mediated Transport Govern Micron‐Sized PM2.5 Translocation across the Air–Blood Barrier

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using a dynamic, tri‐culture air‐blood barrier model, this study reveals that macrophage‐mediated transport governs micron‐sized particle translocation under cyclic strain. The process is highly size‐dependent that 2 µm particles are transported by macrophages, 0.2 µm particles diffuse passively, and 5 µm particles are effectively blocked.

Chronic PET‐Microplastic Exposure: Disruption of Gut–Liver Homeostasis and Risk of Hepatic Steatosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic exposure to environmentally relevant PET microplastics disrupts gut–liver homeostasis, leading to hepatic steatosis, early fibrosis, and altered gut microbiota. These effects signal metabolic imbalance and gut–liver axis impairment, emphasizing chronic microplastic ingestion as an emerging environmental health risk linked to non‐communicable ...
