Microfluidic Nano‐Assembly of Red‐Blood‐Cell (RBC) Lipids and Components for Engineering Extracellular Vesicles

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered red blood cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (eRBCEVs) are synthesized via controlled microfluidic assembly from native RBC lipids, enabling tunable encapsulation of proteins, nucleic acids, nanoparticles, and viral vectors. The platform demonstrates reproducible nanoscale architecture, preserved membrane composition, and functional cargo ...

Efficacy of different concentration of sodium hypochlorite and 6-benzyladenine on the physicochemical attributes of post-harvest mango (Mangifera indica L.)

Cogent Food & Agriculture
Mangoes are climacteric fruits that undergo a decline in both quantity and quality during the post-harvest period. Although post-harvest treatments enhance quality, studies comparing different chemical concentrations are scarce.

Effect of KMnO4 on shelf life and quality of banana (Musa paradisiaca L.)

Fundamental and Applied Agriculture, 2021
Banana being a climacteric fruit show an increase in ethylene production during the ripening which reduces the shelf life. Potassium permanganate (KMnO4) as an ethylene absorber extends the shelf life and maintains postharvest quality.

A Geometrically Transient Platform for Bioelectronic Implants

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Minimally invasive bioelectronic implants often compromise performance for smaller sizes. To resolve this optimization dilemma, a wireless bioelectronic implant with a transient geometry is introduced (MiFi). The origami‐inspired device miniaturizes up to sixfold for syringe insertion and autonomously unfolds post‐implantation.
