Luminescent Nanocucurbits Enable Spatiotemporal Co‐Delivery of Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Chemotherapeutic Agents

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 46, December 11, 2025.
A cucurbit‐shaped luminescent nanoparticle (nanocucurbit) is engineered through the self‐assembly of polypeptides conjugated with aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) fluorophore. The resulting nanocucurbit exhibits approximately two‐fold higher cellular internalization efficiency compared to its spherical counterparts.

Foam Formation in Shake Flasks and Its Consequences

Engineering in Life Sciences, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Foam formation in stirred tank fermentation processes is a well‐studied phenomenon. However, foaming in shake flask cultivations is rarely considered. Non‐baffled shake flasks, in particular, are generally considered to prevent foaming problems. However, under certain process conditions, foaming in non‐baffled shake flasks can occur.

Antibacterial hydrogel: The sniper of chronic wounds

BMEMat, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2025.
The treatment of chronic wounds has always been an important challenge in the medical field. We focus on hydrogels not only because they provide a moist healing environment but also because compared with traditional dressings, they can effectively prevent and treat infections, reduce wound pain and scar formation.
