Poloxamer‐Enabled Thermoresponsive Biobased Controlled‐Release Fertilizer for On‐Demand Nutrient Delivery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A bio‑based thermoresponsive controlled‑release fertilizer (TRBF) is fabricated by introducing F127 into a castor‑oil‑derived polyurethane coating. Distinct from conventional bio‑based coated fertilizer (BCF), TRBF achieves temperature‑regulated nitrogen release via F127 reversible phase transition, suppressing nutrient leakage at low temperature and ...

Engineering a Bioelectronic Hybrid Heart with Integrated Sensing and Electrical Modulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A bioelectronic hybrid heart is engineered by integrating iPSC‐derived cardiomyocytes, a decellularized cardiac scaffold, a cell‐laden ECM coating, and a flexible electronic mesh. The embedded electrodes enable real‐time recording of spontaneous electrical activity and localized stimulation, allowing controlled pacing and modulation of activation ...

A Generative AI Framework to Predict Cardiomyocyte Contraction Function From Single Static Images

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A single static hiPSC‐cardiomyocyte image is fed into a U‐Net‐GAN framework, which directly predicts a pixel‐resolved contraction heatmap without time‐lapse imaging. StyleGAN2‐generated synthetic cell–heatmap pairs augment training, improving prediction fidelity (SSIM = 0.84).

Comparative Analysis of Bioreactor Design and Scale‐Up for Cultivated Meat Using Monte Carlo‐Based Timescale Modeling

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cultivated meat offers a sustainable alternative to conventional livestock production but faces significant scale‐up challenges, particularly in bioreactor design for mammalian cell suspension cultures. This study presents a comparative analysis of stirred tank reactors (STR), bubble columns (BC), and airlift reactors (ALR) to assess their ...

Enhancing Adeno‐Associated Virus 2 Capsid Engineering Through Co‐Evolutionary Coupling

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adeno‐associated virus (AAV) has emerged as a leading platform for gene therapy. However, to unlock the full potential, their manufacturing yields, stability, and efficacy must all be improved. Rational design is limited by poor predictability and the potential impact of mutations on multiple important vector properties.
