Sustainable Plant‐Based Water Repellent Coatings Using Hydrophobic Pine and Palm Pollen

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A novel formulation strategy for creating superhydrophobic coatings using plant‐derived waxes and chemically treated pine and palm pollen. By employing acid modification, the hydrophobicity of the pollen surface is enhanced, resulting in water contact angles exceeding 150°.

A Synthetic β‐Mannan Epitope Enables Immunization and Detection of Candida auris

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A synthetic β‐mannan epitope enables both active and passive immunization against Candida auris. Conjugation to the carrier protein CRM197 induces protective antibody responses, while monoclonal antibodies targeting the same epitope support detection using a lateral flow assay, linking glycochemistry with antifungal prevention and diagnostics ...

Nanomaterials for Allergy Diagnosis and Treatment: Advances, Opportunities and Translational Challenges

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanomaterials offer dual applications in allergy management. For diagnosis, nanomaterials enhance analytical sensitivity and improve detection in specific IgE and functional assays such as the basophil activation test (BAT). For allergen‐specific immunotherapy, nanomaterials enable allergen masking and controlled release, and effectively modulate the ...
