Laser‐Synthesized Carbon‐Coated Elemental Bismuth Nanoparticles for Sustained Reactive Oxygen Species Generation Under Visible‐Light Irradiation

Small, EarlyView.
Femtosecond laser ablation of bismuth in acetone yields carbon‐coated nanoparticles with a metallic Bi0 core and an amorphous carbon shell. The core‐shell architecture preserves visible‐light‐driven redox activity and enables sustained hydroxyl‐radical generation.

Synthetic Cells With Chemo‐Optical Signaling Enable Targeted Capture and Killing of Bacteria

Small, EarlyView.
The here presented synthetic cells capture bacteria through their internally produced bioluminescence signal and light activated adhesions. Subsequently, they eliminate the captured bacteria in through a locally elevated hydrogen peroxide concentration generated by membrane bound enzyme.

One‐Pot Fabrication of Pentapeptide Bio‐Aerogel via Direct Alcogelation

Small, EarlyView.
A minimal tachykinin‐inspired pentapeptide (TC‐1) self‐assembles in water and ethanol to form robust gels that can be dried in one pot to ultra‐porous aerogels using supercritical carbon dioxide. Solvent choice programs nanoscale packing and bulk mechanics producing lightweight monoliths with high porosity for biomaterials applications, verified by ...

Optical Control of Therapeutic Synthetic Cells: Controlling Biomolecule Synthesis, Activation, and Communication

Small Methods, EarlyView.
Combining synthetic cells engineering, cell‐free expression, and optical regulation may enable a new generation of programmable synthetic cell platforms. By providing spatiotemporal control over biomolecule synthesis, activation, transport, release, and communication, light offers a versatile strategy for coordinating proteins, RNAs, peptides, and ...

Oral microbiome and homeostatic regulation of periodontal health: From dysbiosis to precision intervention

VIEW, EarlyView.
Periodontal homeostasis is maintained by coordinated interactions between the oral microbiome and host. Dysbiosis disrupts this ecological balance and contributes to periodontal disease, whereas multi‐omics, artificial intelligence, and microbiome‐based interventions provide emerging opportunities for precision diagnosis, ecological restoration, and ...

Scaling temperature‐dependent dispersal rates to metacommunity dynamics: An experimental test

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Changes in community structure under shifting thermal regimes depend on how both local population dynamics and regional dispersal respond to temperature. Processes underlying dispersal, such as movement speed and demographic density dependence, are constrained by ...
