POM-Based Hydrogels for Efficient Synergistic Chemodynamic/Low-Temperature Photothermal Antibacterial Therapy.

Bacterial infection of wound surfaces has posed a significant threat to human health and represents a formidable challenge in the clinical treatment. In this study, a novel antimicrobial hydrogel utilizing POM is synthesized as the primary component, with gelatin and sodium alginate as the structural framework. The resultant hydrogel demonstrates exceptional mechanical properties and viscoelasticity attributed to the hydrogen-bonded cross-linking between POM and gelatin, as well as the ionic cross-linking between sodium alginate and Ca.

Valence-Transforming O-Depleting Nano-Assembly Enable In Situ Tumor Depositional Embolization.

Abnormal metabolism and blood supply/O imbalance in tumor cells affect drug transport delivery and increase the difficulty of tumor treatment. Controlling tumor growth by inhibiting tumor cell metabolism and regulating progressive embolization in the tumor region provides an innovative basis for constructing tumor therapeutic models. A highly biocompatible and efficient O-depleting agent has been investigated to enable in situ precipitation and embolization within the tumor microenvironment.

Reversible Schiff Base Chemistry in Arginine-Grafted Regenerated Cellulose Hydrogel: Integration of Chitosan and Zinc Ions for Enhanced Hemostasis, Antibacterial Action, and Accelerated Wound Healing.

Wound healing presents a formidable challenge for global healthcare systems. We aimed to address this challenge by designing a multifunctional wound dressing tailored to meet diverse therapeutic needs. Arginine (Arg), selected for its ability to promote wound healing, is grafted onto aldehyde-modified regenerated cellulose (DAC) via Schiff base bonds for a reversible controlled release.

Comparative genomic analysis of symbiotic and free-living strains provides insights into the evolutionary origins of obligate -bacterial endosymbioses.

Unlabelled: Endosymbiosis is a widespread and important phenomenon requiring diverse model systems. Ciliates are a widespread group of protists that often form symbioses with diverse microorganisms. Endosymbioses between the ciliate and heritable bacterial symbionts are common in nature, and four essential symbionts were described: , " Protistobacter heckmanni," ".

[Effects of Nano-copper Oxide on Physiobiochemical Properties of L. and Its Heavy Metal Accumulation Under Cadmium Stress].

To investigate the effects of nano-copper oxide (CuO NPs) on plant growth, physio-biochemical characteristics, and heavy metal content under cadmium stress, a hydroponics experiment was conducted on the effects of single and combined treatments of CuO NPs (0, 10, 20, and 50 mg·L) and Cd (0, 1, and 5 μmol·L) on the fresh weight, photosynthetic pigment content, MDA content, antioxidant enzyme activity (CAT, POD, SOD, and GR), and Cu and Cd contents in L. The results showed that under the single addition of CuO NPs, the fresh weight and activities of CAT, POD, and GR were inhibited as a whole. Photosynthetic pigment content and SOD activity increased first and then decreased with the increase in CuO NPs concentration, whereas MDA content in leaves and roots, and Cu content in subcells of L.

Scientific profile of brain-computer interfaces: Bibliometric analysis in a 10-year period.

Background: With the tremendous advances in the field of brain-computer interfaces (BCI), the literature in this field has grown exponentially; examination of highly cited articles is a tool that can help identify outstanding scientific studies and landmark papers. This study examined the characteristics of 100 highly cited BCI papers over the past 10 years.

Methods: The Web of Science was searched for highly cited papers related to BCI research published from 2006 to 2015.
