Abstract The in-situ upcycling of decentralized methane and nitrogen gas (N2)-derived ammonia via methanotrophic bacteria is highly attractive. However, the toxic intermediate generated from ammonia oxidation significant...

IntroductionThe limited availability of suitable scaffolds for three-dimensional (3D) cell culture has driven the development of new biomaterials. In this study, we developed a porcine fibrin matrix gel (PFMG) derived en...

ABSTRACT Spinal cord injury (SCI), which is a severe complication of spinal fractures, often causes the dysfunction of the spinal cord and results in sensory and motor abnormalities. Current clinical treatments—includi...

Background. Viral infections remain a major global health threat despite advances in vaccines and antiviral drugs due to the rapid emergence of resistance and new viral pathogens. Antiviral peptides (AVPs) are promising ...

Abstract To accurately acquire deep-sea live biological samples, a hydraulic suction macro-biological pressure-retaining sampler (HSMPS) was designed to achieve active capture of seafloor biological by a suction pump. Th...

Horticultural growing media (GM) are increasingly expected to provide reliable biological functions, yet microbial inoculants and native microbiota often perform inconsistently. We argue that this variability arises beca...

Abstract Biological soft tissues manipulation, including conventional (mechanical) and nonconventional (laser, waterjet and ultrasonic) processes, is critically required in most surgical innervations. However, the soft t...

Abstract Background Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are pivotal in biopharmaceutical production, yet balancing high recombinant protein yield with cell survival remains challenging. While previous studies have targeted...

Micro-capillaries with an engineered hidden surface were produced via the self-rolling of polymer thin films whose surface was photochemically modified so as to coat it with silver nanoparticles. The polymer films consis...

Abstract Biological production of adipic acid, a crucial building block in nylon and polymer manufacturing, from renewable feedstocks has attracted attention as a sustainable alternative to the traditional petrochemical ...

Structural health monitoring (SHM) has become a central tool for managing civil infrastructure. In modern SHM, the physical structure and the SHM system together form a coupled cyber-physical system. Due to the networked...

Abstract Many sulfated polysaccharides (SPSs) possess useful physicochemical properties and biological activities and are widely used in industry. Currently, major SPSs are derived from livestock and marine organisms. To...

Abstract Echo State Networks are recurrent neural networks that leverage a random reservoir’s dynamics, training only a simple readout layer. This approach is computationally efficient but limits network performance. B...

The invasive brain-computer interface (BCI) is a method that involves implanting microelectrodes into brain tissue to collect neural electrical signals. The signals obtained through this method are often of high precisio...

Abstract Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapies have achieved clinical success in autologous treatment of hematological malignancies. However, their broader application remains limited. Beyond the biological ch...

This review discusses organic semiconductors interfaced with biomolecular systems, focusing on the construction of material systems through biochemical pathways for device nanoarchitectonics. The initial section highligh...

Because of resistance development by cancer cells against current anticancer drugs, there is a considerable interest in developing novel antitumor agents. We have previously demonstrated that CIGB-552, a novel cell-penet...

Core-brush hybrid nanoparticles containing PEG surface functions are highly interesting as biologically inert and smart stimuli-responsive materials for future applications in biosensors, drug delivery, tissue engineerin...

Este trabalho apresenta o desenvolvimento de uma Escala de Integração ao Ensino Superior (EIES). A amostra foi constituída por 633 universitários de séries iniciais e finais de sete cursos das áreas Humanas, Exatas...

Abstract Background Long COVID is an infection-associated chronic condition with uncertain evolution, leading to ambiguity in case definitions and various hypotheses about its pathophysiology. Despite this diversity, cau...

Most alpine ecosystems are subject to non-native species invasion as climate warms and human disturbance increases. Therefore, it is important to identify the main barriers and facilitators of alpine plant invasions. Whi...

Abstract Background Gastric cancer (GC) remains a major global health challenge with persistently poor survival rates, largely attributable to late-stage diagnosis and the inherent limitations of conventional imaging mod...

Thermoset and fiber-reinforced composites (FRCs) are widely adopted for their exceptional mechanical strength, thermal resistance, and chemical stability that have demonstrated versatile applications across aerospace, au...
