Effect of Nanoparticle Distribution on Photothermal Absorption in Binary Mixtures of Colloidal Supraballs

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
This work combines molecular dynamics and finite‐difference time‐domain computational approaches to study the photothermal properties of melanin nanoparticle–based supra‐assemblies. Based on the results of this study, the binary mixtures of melanin and silica with higher concentrations of melanin and with more segregated levels of mixing are able to ...

Evolution of Ocular Organ‐On‐Chip Systems for Disease Modelling and Drug Testing: Where are We Now?

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The rise in ophthalmic diseases due to aging, screen use, and environmental factors has driven demand for better ocular models. Traditional systems fall short, encouraging the development of organ‐on‐chip devices. These microfluidic platforms replicate eye tissue architecture, enable drug screening, and simulate ocular diseases.

Dual‐Crosslinked Betaine‐Based Amphiphilic Hydrogel as a Promising Vitreous Substitute: Anti‐Adhesion, Anti‐Fouling, and Anti‐Cell Proliferation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel multiple cross‐linked betaine‐type amphiphilic polymer hydrogels are developed via in situ free radical copolymerization. The resultant formation, named P(SBMA‐co‐AANa) hydrogel, functions as a vitreous substitute and demonstrates superior performance in optical properties, support capacity, and biocompatibility on a vitrectomized rabbit model.
