Self‐Assembled Inorganic Nanomembrane Tubes: Rolled‐Up Piezoelectrics for Microacoustic Wave‐Based Actuators and Sensors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a self‐assembly process to generate free‐standing piezoelectric nanomembranes, forming ultracompact microtubular acoustic wave sensors and actuators. The miniaturized 3D piezoelectric platform reported in this work can be applied in telecommunication, energy harvesting, and acoustofluidics. Moreover, the 3D self‐assembly can add

CRYOGENIC PRESERVATION OF SEMEN FROM THE GREATER SANDHILL CRANE

, 1985
Frozen gene pools (semen or embryos) can provide a safe place for the storage of genetic material for many generations. Cranes (Grus spp.) are one of many species in need of gene pool protection.

Differential Metabolomic Signatures in Boar Sperm with Varying Liquid Preservation Capacities at 17 °C

Animals
In the swine industry, artificial insemination (AI) primarily uses chill-stored semen, making sperm preservation crucial for reproductive success. However, sperm quality declines at varying rates during chilled storage at 17 °C, distinguishing high ...

Recent advances in semen preservation.

Journal of the South African Veterinary Association, 1976
While the horizons for cryobiology may be bright and granted, tremendous strides have been made in the area of artifical insemination(AI), it is evident that only dairy cattle AI with frozen semen has achieved industrial application. Beef cattle AI has been hampered by the lack of suitable techniques for oestrous control.

Stable Protein‐Based G‐Quadruplex‐Derived Supramolecular Bioinks as Tunable ECM‐Mimetic Constructs Assembled by Combining Non‐Covalent and Covalent Strategies

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Harnessing the synergistic interplay of supramolecular self‐assembly, under macromolecular crowding conditions, and enzymatic‐mediated covalent crosslinking toward a stable protein‐based G‐quadruplex‐derived supramolecular bioink. This bioinspired strategy enables the biofabrication of complex and tunable ECM‐mimetic constructs, providing a platform ...

Comparison between a new device for the semen quality analysis and the manual microscopic evaluation in a not specialistic clinical laboratory

Advances in Laboratory Medicine
Semen analysis investigates different parameters of human semen with a high relevance in fertility workup, confirmation of sterility by post vasectomy, in pathologies follow-up such as varicocele and in all cases where sperm preservation is required ...

Seminal plasma removal for medium-term preservation of ram sperm at 5 °C

BMC Veterinary Research
This study aimed to investigate if washing ram sperm from seminal plasma (SP) could be an effective tool to extend sperm lifespan in medium-term preservation in liquid form to optimize ovine artificial insemination protocols. To this end, in Experiment 1
