Bio‐Derived Nanophotonic Hybrids Enabling Reconfigurable Upconversion for Multilevel Optical Encryption

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
A dual‐gated nanophotonic platform integrates lanthanide‐doped upconversion nanoparticles with a stimuli‐responsive silk–zirconia photonic crystal to enable multilevel optical encryption. Resonant photonic coupling allows hydration‐dependent modulation of visible emission under near‐infrared excitation, achieving reversible switching between decoy and ...

Recent Advances in Cryogel Applications for Musculoskeletal Regeneration

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydrogels have been widely used in tissue engineering due to their high‐water content and biocompatibility, yet their densely cross‐linked microstructure inherently limits cell infiltration, mass transport, and mechanical support. Cryogels, formed through partial freezing and crosslinking under subzero conditions, provide unique 3D macroporous

Progress in bone tissue engineering biomaterials: Development, challenges, and prospects

VIEW, EarlyView.
Scheme 1 Application of biomaterials in immunomodulation during bone tissue engineering. Abstract Bone defect repair remains a major clinical challenge in orthopedics. Over 2 million cases caused by trauma, tumors, and other factors occur annually, with large‐scale defects posing a particular bottleneck due to limited self‐healing capacity.

The plasticisation model of dye diffusion: Part 8

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Re‐evaluation using the Williams–Landel–Ferry equation, of exhaustion/rate of dyeing/fixation data previously reported for and acid dye, natural dye and two reactive dyes on three different types of silk substrate revealed that thermally activated dye diffusivity is governed by the thermally regulated structural relaxation times of the ...
