Connecting Droplet Adhesion with Sperm Kinematics: A New Paradigm in Sperm Quality Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates direct experimental evidence to establish a nonintuitive connection between the motion characteristics of self‐propelled sperm cells and their surface interaction. Simultaneous motion visualization and cantilever‐deflection‐based adhesion characterization reveal that sperm‐cell droplets with higher motility exhibit lower surface

Ag‐Cu Nanoarchitecture for Enhanced LSPR Absorption: the Role of Surface Roughness and near‐field Interactions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study investigates the plasmonic properties and biosensing capabilities of a nanocomposite incorporating Cu and Ag nanoparticles for detecting anti‐DbpA antibodies associated with Lyme disease. The enhanced LSPR response is explained through FDTD simulations of Cu–Ag near‐field interactions and increased surface roughness.

Stress Response of Aspergillus niger Spores to Copper Surfaces and the Implications for Antifungal Surface Functionalization

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study investigates the antifungal efficacy of ultrashort pulsed laser‐induced periodic surface structures (USP‐DLIP) on copper, brass, and steel surfaces. Using Aspergillus niger as a model, the research highlights a 99% reduction in spore viability on 9 µm structured copper surfaces due to enhanced copper ion release. Scanning electron microscopy

Titanium Oxysulfate‐Derived 1D Lepidocrocite Titanate Nanostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A novel synthesis protocol is presented for creating high‐quality titania nanofilaments. This method transcends the limitations of traditional techniques, leveraging a solution precipitation process fine‐tuned for lower temperatures and minimal reagent use. The result?
