Integrated Visible Light and Oxidant Protection Through Multifunctional Sunscreens
High‐energy visible radiation (HEVR), although less energetic than UV light, penetrates deeper into the skin and contributes to photoaging, pigmentation disorders, and oxidative stress. The development of new HEVR‐targeted filters, therefore, represents not only a scientific challenge but also a pressing public health and cosmetic industry need.

Vitamin E Deficiency in the Japanese Quail
Japanese quail were maintained on a low vitamin E soybean meal diet for 35 weeks. Percent fertile eggs was significantly decreased after 20 weeks and hatchability was severely depressed. Free tocopherol in the plasma of both sexes was markedly reduced in the deficient birds.

Neutrophil‐Mimetic MRI Enables Ultra‐Early Detection of Vascular Inflammation After Stroke
In this study, we developed neutrophil‐mimetic MRI probes that detect ultra‐early neuroinflammation following ischemic stroke by targeting E‐selectin. Within seconds of their injection, these microparticles mimic initial leukocyte adhesion to the activated cerebral endothelium.

Creatine Metabolism in Vitamin E Deficiency.
Summary1) Normal and Vit. E-deficient rabbits were killed at varying time intervals after injection of glycine-1-C14. Concentration and specific activities of kidney glycocyamine, liver creatine, skeletal muscle creatine and heart creatine were determined. Vit. E deficiency led to an elevated concentration of liver creatine, to reduced concentration of

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.
