Designing for Degradation: Transient Devices Enabled by (Nano)Cellulose

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Recent progress in transient devices enabled by (nano)cellulosic materials is reviewed. Transiency mechanisms, advantages of nanocelluloses, and a suite of applications are discussed. A circular thinking approach coupled with life cycle assessment is applied to critically revisit the potential, advantages, and challenges of nanocellulose‐enabled ...

Pleural CD14+ monocytes/macrophages of healthy adolescents show a high expression of metallothionein family genes

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Modern surgical (technical) possibilities enable pleural macrophage isolation and analyses regardless the person`s age. Transcriptome profiling of macrophages from healthy or sick individuals revealed that these cells express high levels of metallothioneins, metal‐binding proteins that are involved in heavy metal detoxification, antioxidative defense ...

Metal–Organic Framework‐Based Antimicrobial Touch Surfaces to Prevent Cross‐Contamination

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A MOF‐based antimicrobial door handle cover is developed. It completely inhibits the cross‐contamination of Gram‐positive bacterial species (Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis), Gram‐negative bacterial species (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii), and fungi (Candida albicans). Abstract Infection diseases
