Nanodiamonds as Bioactive Platforms to Modulate Microbial, Mammalian, and Vertebrate Systems
Nanodiamonds (NDs) are biocompatible and antibacterial nanomaterials that support mammalian cell growth while inhibiting bacterial pathogens. NDs showed strong antibacterial activity, with Escherichia coli being more sensitive than Staphylococcus aureus. At 10 mg/mL, both bacteria exhibited ~8% viability.

Modified Titanium Dental Implants: The Current Progress of Soft‐Tissue Integration Methods
Dental implants are an established solution for tooth loss, yet achieving soft tissue integration (STI) around the transmucosal region remains a challenge. The natural tooth–gingiva interface is poorly replicated on titanium implants. This review explores surface modification strategies, ranging from surface chemistry and topography to biological ...

Synthesis of a Novel Amine‐Based Curing Agent for Epoxy Resins Derived From Vanillin
The four‐step synthesis of a new bio‐based amine hardener is described starting from vanillin as a bio‐based compound. The hardener ADBA was utilized to cure DGEBA and the resulting Tg,tanδmax was determined via DMA. Compared to other bio‐based curing agents, our curing agent is obtainable in a high yield and leads to a superior Tg of 135°C.
