Genetically Programmed Shape‐Morphing of Engineered Living Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, bacterial and mammalian engineered living materials (ELMs) are presented, in which living cells direct genetically programmed and enzymatically mediated shape‐morphing. The resulting deformation and shape‐recovery can be actuated in a genetically controlled manner by an ELM incorporating out‐of‐equilibrium counteracting biochemical reactions with

Guanosine‐Quadruplex Hydrogels as Dynamic, Mechanically Tunable and Ion Conductive 3D Scaffolds for Cell Culture Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Versatile guanosine‐quadruplex (GQ) hydrogels are developed as dynamic biomatrices for cell culture. These scaffolds are fabricated under mild aqueous conditions, present improved stability, tunable mechanical properties within physiological ranges; fibrillar, porous microstructure, ion conductivity, and cytocompatibility.

Configuration‐Encoded Cell Alignment by Light‐Gated Silicon Photovoltaic Microcell Arrays

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Light‐gated silicon photovoltaic microcells convert pulsed illumination into localized electrical cues. Arranging otherwise similar microcells into four‐lobed, six‐lobed, or circular patterns directs fibroblasts into corresponding local arrangements without wired stimulation.

Quantification of Magnetic Interactions in van der Waals Heterostructures Using Lorentz Transmission Electron Microscopy and Off‐Axis Electron Holography

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Cross‐sectional Lorentz TEM and off‐axis electron holography visualize the magnetic domain structure and quantify interlayer coupling in Fe3GeTe2/graphite/Fe3GeTe2 heterostructures. A stray‐field coupling length of 37±$\pm$7 nm marks the onset of domain misalignment between the layers.

Bilayered PEDOT:PSS–Collagen Scaffolds as Functional Architectures for Tissue Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A bilayered scaffold integrates collagen and PEDOT:PSS as distinct yet interconnected 3D matrices, preserving their fibrillar and conductive characteristics. Spatial compartmentalization enables independent tailoring of each domain while maintaining mechanical stability and compatibility with electrochemical monitoring, providing a multifunctional ...

Equilibrium Shapes with Stress Localisation for Inextensible Elastic Mobius and Other Strips [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We formulate the problem of finding equilibrium shapes of a thin inextensible elastic strip, developing further our previous work on the Möbius strip. By using the isometric nature of the deformation we reduce the variational problem to a second-order ...

Beyond Passivation: Designing Structurally Tailored Artificial Interphases for High‐Energy Lithium‐Based Anodes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This review outlines critical engineering design rules for building artificial protective coatings on next‐generation lithium metal and silicon battery anodes. It highlights how balancing structural flexibility with strict electronic and ionic transport limits prevents early battery failure.

Concordance between semi-quantitative result of the number of leukocytes measured by urine test strip (Multistix 10 SG) and quantitative result obtained by cytology of peritoneal fluid in patients on Peritoneal Dialysis

open access: yesNefrología Latinoamericana
Objective: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) peritonitis is a common complication. Previous studies report an association between the presence of leukocytes in peritoneal fluid (PF) with the use of urine test strips and the cell count in PF; This study seeks to ...

Self‐Sealing Microneedles Improve Precision and Reduce Reflux in Subretinal Cell Transplantation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Ultrafine 49G microneedles enable subretinal delivery of induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived retinal pigment epithelial cells through a 50 µm outer diameter tip. Compared with conventional 38G microcannulas, these microneedles reduce cell suspension reflux in a rabbit model, highlighting the potential of microinvasive delivery instruments to improve ...
