Excessive exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a major factor in the development of skin photoaging wrinkles. While current treatments can slow the progression of photoaging, it is very difficult to achieve complete reversal. This study introduces galvanic cell microneedle (GCMN) patches with magnesium-containing bipolar electrodes.

The introduction of nanomaterials into polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) resin has been effective for mechanically reinforcing PMMA for application in oral denture bases. However, these methods cannot simultaneously improve the mechanical and antibacterial properties, which limits widespread clinical application. Here, we self-assembled binary nanocomposites of boron nitride nanosheets (h-BNNs) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as nanofillers and incorporated the nanofillers into PMMA.

Article Synopsis
  • China’s lockdowns during COVID-19 led to reduced gaseous pollutants but increased particulate matter (PM) levels in summer 2020 due to sandstorms and enhanced secondary formation processes.
  • There was a rise in PM levels primarily in the 1-2.5 μm size range, correlating with severe haze conditions; chemical reactions involving sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NO) played a significant role in pollution dynamics.
  • To address ozone (O3) pollution in Beijing, controlling volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is critical, as the area is identified as VOC-limited.
