Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Next Generation Smart Implant Surfaces: Engineering Multifunctional Antimicrobial, Immunomodulatory and Regenerative Interfaces

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Natural‐inspired nano‐textured implant surfaces can be functionalised to modulate macrophage polarisation and local immune responses. This bioactive control promotes improved tissue integration and healing outcomes. ABSTRACT Dental implants rely on a stable and functional interface between the implant surface, surrounding tissues, and the oral ...

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Ordered Pt3Mn Intermetallic Nanoparticles Supported on Atomically Dispersed Mn–N–C as Electrocatalysts for Fuel Cells

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 33, 10 August 2026.
Ordered L12‐Pt3Mn intermetallic alloys are uniformly deposited onto atomically dispersed Mn–N–C supports. The synergistic effect between MnN4 sites and Pt3Mn elevates interfacial binding strength and dissolution barriers while favorably weakening *OH adsorption. It delivers exceptional catalytic activity and stability in fuel cells, serving as an ideal

Interfacial and Ligand Dual Engineering Toward Energy‐Saving Hydrogen Production Coupled with Sulfion Degradation

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 5, September 2026.
Using a coordinated regulation strategy of interface and ligand, we developed a nickel cobalt sulfide/carboxylate ligand‐modified nickel cobalt hydroxide composite (NiCo‐S/NiCo‐OH‐CL) with abundant heterointerfaces. Owing to the porous network, sulfur‐repellent hydrophilic surface, and dual electronic structure regulation, the coupled electrolysis ...
