Sonoenzymatically Triggered Cascading Degradation of Bioresorbable Materials for On‐Demand Transient Triboelectric Implants

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Our SEA strategy provides an efficient and biosafe approach for the on‐demand removal of implanted bioresorbable materials through cascading degradation that couples ultrasound‐triggered rapid mechanical disintegration with subsequent enzymatic degradation.

An Ion‐Based Strategy Toward Synergistic Surface Functionalization Combining the Osteogenic Properties and NIR‐Mediated Antibacterial Activity of PEEK

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A multifunctional bioactive PEEK‐based implant (Mn@p/MBG‐SPEEK) is engineered to combat implant‐associated infections while promoting osteogenesis. The hybrid surface activates PI3K/Akt/mTOR and AP‐1 signaling pathways for osteogenic differentiation, while Mn coordination induces electronic coupling that narrows the HOMO‐LUMO energy gap and enhances ...

Effect of Yogurt on the Deodorization of Raw Garlic (Allium sativum L.) Sulfur Volatiles in Breath and the Roles of Its Components

Dairy
Consumption of garlic leads to the persistence of “garlic breath” due to the presence of malodorous sulfur volatiles which may persist for as long as 24 h.

An in vitro collagen perfusion wound biofilm model; with applications for antimicrobial studies and microbial metabolomics

BMC Microbiology, 2019
Background The majority of in vitro studies of medically relevant biofilms involve the development of biofilm on an inanimate solid surface. However, infection in vivo consists of biofilm growth on, or suspended within, the semi-solid matrix of the ...

Mechanically Robust and Depolymerizable Polyesters With Near‐Complete Monomer Recovery for Circular Additive Manufacturing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A sustainable δ‐lactone‐based polymer platform enables multimodal additive manufacturing through DLP, DIW, and FFF, combining tunable crystallinity, photocurable networks, mechanical robustness, and functional response. The printed materials can be mechanically reprocessed and chemically depolymerized into recoverable monomers, demonstrating a closed ...

Controlling Off-Odors in Plant Proteins Using Sequential Fermentation

Foods
Off-odors produced by volatile compounds remain a major barrier to consumer acceptance of plant-based proteins. This study presents a novel two-stage fermentation strategy to effectively reduce undesirable volatiles in eight plant proteins.

Ultrathin Hydrogel Membranes Inspired by Soap Films Enable Physiologically Relevant Breathing Lung Models

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A soap‐film inspired strategy enables the fabrication of ultrathin yet robust GelMA‐PAAm membranes for breathing lung culture. The hydrogel membrane supports long‐term cyclic deformation under air‐liquid interface conditions, enabling physiologically relevant breathing motions of engineered lung tissue culture. ABSTRACT Breathing continuously stretches

Metal–Organic Framework‐Preserved Thermostable Microneedle Patch for Minimally Invasive Detection and Monitoring of Kidney Dysfunction

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
By growing a conformal ZIF‐8 protective layer directly on antibody‐functionalized microneedles, this work converts a fragile biosensing interface into a thermostable diagnostic platform. The MOF@MN patch enables minimally invasive NGAL detection from dermal ISF while supporting cold‐chain‐independent storage and transport for decentralized kidney ...

Using machine learning methods to investigate the role of volatile organic compounds in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences
AimsApproximately 25%–30% of the global population is affected by non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). This study aimed to explore whether NAFLD could be effectively detected using 341 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) via 10 machine learning (Mach-

Radiation‐Matter Interaction in Chemical Vapor Deposition‐Grown Two‐Dimensional Tungsten Disulfide

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Gamma irradiation tunes the magnetic properties of CVD‐grown WS2 material. Moderate irradiation doses induce low‐temperature ferromagnetic‐like behavior, whereas higher doses suppress the magnetic response because of increased defect formation. These findings provide insight into defect‐mediated magnetism in 2D TMDs and could be relevant to future ...
