Optimization of SWCNT‐FET Biosensors by Aptamer Engineering and Toehold‐Mediated Strand Displacement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Aptamer‐based single‐walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) field‐effect transistor (FET) biosensors are developed for label‐free, real‐time biomarker detection. Truncated DNA aptamers enhance sensitivity through improved conformational switching. A toehold‐mediated strand displacement (TMSD) strategy optimizes functionalization and simplifies fabrication.

Interface Wettability Transition‐Driven Drug Release and Dual‐Phase Functionalization in Implant Abutment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A temporally controlled drug release coating is developed for abutments using a superhydrophobic coating self‐assembled on mesoporous silica. This surface provides sequential functionality: initial contamination resistance through non‐wetting, followed by controlled drug release via wettability transition.

H2S‐Amplified “Three‐in‐One” Antibacterial Strategy for Periodontitis Treatment Using a Photosensitive Pillararene‐Embedded COF/MOF Hybrid

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The integration of ROS‐generating systems with H2S depletion strategies effectively overcomes the limitations imposed by endogenous antioxidant defenses on ROS‐based antimicrobial therapies. In this study, the Cu‐MOF is incorporated into pillararene‐embedded COF, achieving a “three‐in‐one” antimicrobial effect that markedly alleviated periodontal ...
