All‐Aqueous Pullulan Fibers Enabling Visible‐to‐Near‐Infrared Waveguiding with Mechanical and Thermal Resilience

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Pullulan, a biomass‐derived polysaccharide, is transformed into transparent optical fibers using a solvent‐free borax hydrogel‐spinning method. The fibers outperform PMMA with ≈200 MPa tensile strength and 200 °C stability, while uniquely guiding visible‐to‐NIR light and enabling additive‐free humidity sensing.

Trichoderma reesei derived cellulase activity in three N,N-dimethylethanolammonium akylcarboxylate ionic liquids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The activity and denaturation extent of cellulase from Trichoderma reesei (E.C. # 3.2.1.4) was investigated in three representative N,N-dimethylethanolammonium akylcarboxylate ionic liquids.

Nanocellulose as building block for novel materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This thesis describes the fabrication of novel green materials using nanocellulose as the building block. Bacterial cellulose (BC) was used as the nanocellulose predominantly in this work. BC is highly crystalline pure cellulose with an inherent fibre

Dual antibacterial functional regenerated cellulose fibers

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, 2017
ABSTRACTN‐[3‐(dimethylamino)propyl]methacrylamide monomer was used to impart dual antibacterial functionality to regenerated cellulose fibers. In this regard, the monomer was grafted onto the surfaces by a “grafting from” technique, then the tertiary amine groups were quaternized and the acyclic amide groups were halogenated.

MagPiezo: A Magnetogenetic Platform for Remote Activation of Endogenous Piezo1 Channels in Endothelial Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
MagPiezo enables wireless activation of endogenous Piezo1 channels without genetic modification using 19 nm magnetic nanoparticles and low‐intensity magnetic fields. It generates torque forces at the piconewton scale to trigger mechanotransduction in endothelial cells, standing as a novel platform to interrogate and manipulate Piezo1 activity in vitro.

Metal–Organic Frameworks for Gaseous Pollutant Management: From Capture to Neutralization and Reutilization

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review maps how MOFs can manage hazardous gases by combining adsorption, neutralization, and reutilization, enabling sustainable air‐pollution control. Covering chemical warfare agent simulants, SO2, NOx, NH3, H2S, and volatile organic compounds, it highlights structure‐guided strategies that boost selectivity, water tolerance, and cycling ...
