Taking the temperature of the United States public regarding microbiome engineering.

This paper presents the first representative survey of U.S. adults' opinions on microbiome engineering within the built environment, revealing public awareness, perceived benefits and risks, and attitudes toward genetically engineered microbiomes.

Comparative Study of the Dehydrothermal Crosslinking of Electrospun Collagen Nanofibers: The Effects of Vacuum Conditions and Subsequent Chemical Crosslinking.

Collagen nanofibrous materials have become integral to tissue engineering due to their exceptional properties and biocompatibility. Dehydrothermal crosslinking (DHT) enhances stability and maintains structural integrity without the formation of toxic residues. The study involved the crosslinking of electrospun collagen, applying DHT with access to air and under vacuum conditions.
