Harnessing the nonthermal effects of ultrasound for cancer treatment: From mechanisms to applications

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
Nonthermal ultrasound transforms acoustic energy into diverse therapeutic bioeffects through cavitation, mechanical stimulation, and physicochemical activation. This review discusses how acoustic parameters, biological mechanisms, and responsive materials interact to influence nonthermal ultrasound‐enabled cancer therapies. Mechanism‐guided engineering

Dynamic Equilibrium Mechanism for Surface Nanobubble Stabilization [PDF]

Physical Review Letters, 2008
Recent experiments have convincingly demonstrated the existence of surface nanobubbles on submerged hydrophobic surfaces. However, classical theory dictates that small gaseous bubbles quickly dissolve because their large Laplace pressure causes a diffusive outflux of gas.

Red, white, and green? Applying agricultural technologies to treat algal blooms

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Summer often brings harmful algal blooms to ponds, lakes, and even the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. These blooms are caused by warm, shallow water with high levels of nutrients, especially phosphorus (P). Researchers from the USDA Agricultural Research Service developed phosphorus removal structures, called P‐Traps, to filter phosphorus ...
