Stimuli‐Responsive Crosslinked Chitosan/PVP/PEG Hydrogel Networks for Targeted Drug Delivery and Antimicrobial Performance

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In this study, a unique pH‐sensitive PEG/C/PVA hydrogel based on chitosan (C), polyvinyl propylene (PVP) and polyethylenglycol (PEG) crosslinked with tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was fabricated. This PEG/C/PVA hydrogel was designed to deliver different drugs with distinct release profiles, including diclofenac sodium and ciprofloxacin, and ...

A Within Canopy Deposition Model Capturing the Influence of Microplastic Size, Biological Cohesion, and Vegetation‐Generated Turbulence

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Laboratory experiments investigated how the presence of biofilm and particle size influenced deposition in both bare and vegetated channels. Both abiotic and biotic sediment beds were considered, with the biotic beds containing Extracellular Polymeric Substances (EPS). As current magnitude and turbulent kinetic energy increased, particles were

Interconnected Porous Hydrogels with Tunable Anisotropy Through Aqueous Emulsion Bioprinting

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 27, 2 April 2026.
A 3D bioprintable microporous bioink is developed using an aqueous two‐phase system (ATPS) composed of extracellular matrix (ECM) mimetic biopolymers. The ATPS bioink enables the fabrication of interconnected porous architectures with up to 70% porosity, supporting long‐term cell viability and 3D cell alignment, enabling a simultaneous generation of ...

Preclinical Evaluation of the Safety of the Dedicated Gel for Gel Immersion Endoscopy With Gastrointestinal Perforation and Peritoneal Leakage

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Gel immersion endoscopic mucosal resection or endoscopic submucosal dissection has been developed as an alternative to saline immersion therapeutic endoscopy. However, in cases of gastrointestinal perforation, gel may leak from the lumen into the peritoneal cavity, and the safety of such events remains unclarified.

Nanoborate Based Decontamination of Poultry Carcasses

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Nanoborate solutions are a promising alternative for decontamination of poultry carcasses. Compared to chlorine dioxide, nanoborate solutions‐treated carcasses consistently exhibited greater microbial control and approximately 50% longer shelf life. ABSTRACT Despite the implementation of strict biosecurity and food safety systems in broiler production,
