The influence of applied electric field on the field-induced variation of the electrolyte concentration (concentration polarization) disturbs the electro-neutrality of the system, represented by a dispersed particle and its electric double layer in electrolyte solution. The manifestation of this electro-neutrality disturbance in the non-linear electrophoresis was considered in the framework of a procedure of successive approximations in powers of the applied field strength. Analytic expressions describing the component of the electrophoretic velocity proportional to the cubic power of the applied field strength (cubic electrophoresis) were obtained for arbitrary values of the surface conductivity (of Dukhin number). The model restrictions are spherical non-conducting particle with homogeneous surface and thin double layer.

The excellent optical and electronic properties of halide perovskite materials have attracted researchers to investigate this particular field. However, the instability in ambient conditions and toxicity of materials like lead have given some setbacks to commercial use. To overcome these issues, perovskite-inspired materials with less toxic and excellent air-stable materials are being studied.

Reconstructing large, inflammatory maxillofacial defects using stem cell-based therapy faces challenges from adverse microenvironments, including high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), inadequate oxygen, and intensive inflammation. Here, inspired by the reaction mechanisms of intracellular antioxidant defense systems, we propose the de novo design of an artificial antioxidase using Ru-doped layered double hydroxide (Ru-hydroxide) for efficient redox homeostasis and maxillofacial bone regeneration. Our studies demonstrate that Ru-hydroxide consists hydroxyls-synergistic monoatomic Ru centers, which efficiently react with oxygen species and collaborate with hydroxyls for rapid proton and electron transfer, thus exhibiting efficient, broad-spectrum, and robust ROS scavenging performance.
