Universal Solvent Escape Strategies for Efficient Curing of Hydrogen-Bond-Rich 3D Printing Inks. [PDF]
This study developed a new 3D printing method for hydrogen‐bonded polymers by combining solvent replacement, nanoparticles, and optimized printing paths. This allows fast, precise scaffold fabrication. The scaffolds can be easily customized and release therapeutic agents slowly through protonation, enabling personalized bone, blood vessel, and nerve ...

Ultrasmall PFCE‐loaded silica nanoparticles synthesized through a one‐pot double‐emulsion synthesis method, where rapid silica shell formation kinetically fixes droplet size. The resulting s‐FLAME nanoparticles enable strong 19F MRI signals with enhanced hepatic clearance rate and tumor‐accumulation performance. ABSTRACT 19F magnetic resonance imaging (

Unit-cell parameters determination from a set of independent electron diffraction zonal patterns. [PDF]
We present an algorithm for unit‐cell determination from a set of randomly oriented electron diffraction patterns and demonstrate its performance for two known structures (copper perchlorophthalocyanine and lysozyme) and one as‐yet uncharacterized structure.Due to the short de Broglie wavelength of electrons compared with X‐rays, the curvature of their

Improved Predictability of Diagnosis and Prognosis Using Serum- and Tissue-Derived Extracellular Vesicles From Bulk mRNA Sequencing in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma. [PDF]
Combined analysis of the content from tissue‐derived EVs and serum‐derived EVs can better identify early biomarkers of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Our study identifies two specific miRNAs, miR142‐3p and miR148a‐3p, as diagnostic serum biomarkers for PDAC.

Improved Direct Ink Writing of Liquid Metal Foams via Liquid Additives
The ability to pattern liquid metal is useful for making soft electrical and thermal devices. Dispensing liquid metal from a nozzle naturally results in the formation of spheroidal droplets, making direct‐write printing challenging. Liquid metal foams containing pockets of air can extrude as filaments, albeit inconsistently.

An ordered cathode catalyst layer with efficient mass transport capability was developed based on the ALD of Pt onto VACNTs for high‐performance ultra‐low Pt loading PEMFC. The order‐structured cathode catalyst layer (CCL) has been considered the most promising solution to construct low‐cost proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) with an ultra ...

ABSTRACT By preserving molecular information inherited from the source cell, extracellular vesicles (EVs) can serve as biomarkers for tissue health or disease, paving the way for liquid biopsy applications. The enrichment of tissue‐specific EVs (TS‐EVs) from human biofluids can be challenging due to technical and methodological limitations.

Engineered Chiral Plasmonic Nanocrystal Using Ferritin‐Nanocage With Tunable Circular Dichroism
Ferritin nanocage, a 12 nm protein consisting of 24 subunits wrapped together into a dense core, is employed as a template for the growth of chiral nanocrystals (NCs). The NCs were highly uniform and exhibited significant protrusions around a dense core, suggesting controlled growth pathways.
