Periosteum-bone inspired hierarchical scaffold with endogenous piezoelectricity for neuro-vascularized bone regeneration.

The development of scaffolds for repairing critical-sized bone defects heavily relies on establishing a neuro-vascularized network for proper penetration of nerves and blood vessels. Despite significant advancements in using artificial bone-like scaffolds infused with various agents, challenges remain. Natural bone tissue consists of a porous bone matrix surrounded by a neuro-vascularized periosteum, with unique piezoelectric properties essential for bone growth.

Harmonizing soil restoration and microbial diversity: Insights from a Two-Year field experiment with Sedum-Rice rotation systems.

Phytoremediation coupled with agroproduction (PCA) model contributes to sustainable agriculture and environmental management. This study investigated the impact of continuous cropping early/late season rice (RR) and Sedum alfredii-rice rotation (SR) on soil physical and chemical properties, as well as their relationships with soil microbial community. In 2022, SR treatment significantly increased pH value and organic matter content by 7 % and 17 %, respectively, compared to the levels in 2020, while RR treatment showed no change.

Q-BioLiP: A Comprehensive Resource for Quaternary Structure-based Protein-ligand Interactions.

Since its establishment in 2013, BioLiP has become one of the widely used resources for protein-ligand interactions. Nevertheless, several known issues occurred with it over the past decade. For example, the protein-ligand interactions are represented in the form of single chain-based tertiary structures, which may be inappropriate as many interactions involve multiple protein chains (known as quaternary structures).

Temperature Effect on the Growth and Development of Say (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) Reared on (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) Larvae.

Augmentative release of parasitoids has been an important component of integrated insect management for stored product protection. Understanding the effect of different temperatures on the growth and development of parasitoids is in favor of mass rearing of parasitoids. Say (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is a highly cosmopolitan, gregarious ecto-parasitoid of a variety of Lepidopterous larvae.

Effect of Halomonas titanicae on fluctuating water-line corrosion of EH40 steel.

The fluctuating water-line corrosion of EH40 steel in sterile and biotic media was investigated with a wire beam electrode. When the coupons were partially immersed in the sterile medium, the position of the low water-line acted as the cathodic zone and the area below the low water-line constantly served as the main anodic zone. The thin electrolyte layers with uneven thickness promoted the galvanic current of the region below the low water-line.

The First Two Complete Mitochondrial Genomes for the Subfamily Meligethinae (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae) and Implications for the Higher Phylogeny of Nitidulidae.

The phylogenetic status of the family Nitidulidae and its sister group relationship remain controversial. Also, the status of the subfamily Meligethinae is not fully understood, and previous studies have been mainly based on morphology, molecular fragments, and biological habits, rather than the analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome. Up to now, there has been no complete mitochondrial genome report of Meligethinae.

A Sol-Gel Transition and Self-Healing Hydrogel Triggered via Photodimerization of Coumarin.

However, designing and preparing efficient and quickly self-healing materials has always been a challenge. The preparation strategies of photoresponsive gels attract a lot of attention due to their precise spatial and temporal control and their predetermined response to light stimulation.

In Situ Copper Coating on Silicon Particles Enables Long Durable Anodes in Lithium-Ion Batteries.

Addressing the significant obstacles of volume expansion and inadequate electronic conductivity in silicon-based anode materials during lithiation is crucial for achieving a long durable life in lithium-ion batteries. Herein, a high-strength copper-based metal shell is coated in situ onto silicon materials through a chemical combination of copper citrate and Si-H bonds and subsequent heat treatment. The formed Cu and CuSi shell effectively mitigates the mechanical stress induced by volume expansion during lithiation, strengthens the connection with the copper substrate, and facilitates electron transfer and Li diffusion kinetics.
