Mesenchymal Stem Cells‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Mimetics as Osteoinductive Mediators for Bone Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stem cell‐derived nanoghosts (MSC‐NGs) mimic naturally secreted extracellular vesicles (MSC‐EVs) in structure and physicochemical properties but can be synthesized at more translatable yields. As osteogenic agents, MSC‐NGs demonstrate superior outcomes compared to MSC‐EVs.

Decentralized fault-tolerant control of inland navigation networks: a challenge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Inland waterways are large-scale networks used principally for navigation. Even if the transport planning is an important issue, the water resource management is a crucial point.

Multi‐Scaled Cellulosic Nanonetworks from Tunicates

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Microbial and plant nanonetworks of cellulose have enabled a wide range of high‐performance yet sustainable materials. Herein, a third class of cellulosic nanonetworks is showcased by exploiting the only animal tissue‐producing cellulose nanofibers, i.e., ascidians. An ultrastructure including spherical cells and a microvasculature with diameters of 50–

Biodegradable, Humidity‐Insensitive Mask‐Integrated E‐Nose for Sustainable and Non‐Invasive Continuous Breath Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a paper‐based biodegradable, humidity‐insensitive e‐nose for real‐time breath analysis, addressing challenges in existing technologies such as humidity interference, high costs, and environmental impact. Featuring hydrophobic polymer coatings, these sensors reliably detect VOCs even in high‐moisture environments.

Effects of land cover, topography, and soil on stream water quality at multiple spatial and seasonal scales in a German lowland catchment

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
The influence of catchment characteristics on water quality varies with space and time. Understanding the key factors influencing water quality is needed for effective land use and riparian management to protect river health.

Thirst: A Short History of Drinking Water [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
From earliest times, human societies have faced the challenge of supplying adequate quality and quantities of drinking water. Whether limited by arid environments or urbanization, provision of clean drinking water is a prerequisite of any enduring ...
