Creating durable, motion-compliant neural interfaces is crucial for accessing dynamic tissues under in vivo conditions and linking neural activity with behaviors. Utilizing the self-alignment of nano-fillers in a polymeric matrix under repetitive tension, here, we introduce conductive carbon nanotubes with high aspect ratios into semi-crystalline polyvinyl alcohol hydrogels, and create electrically anisotropic percolation pathways through cyclic stretching. The resulting anisotropic hydrogel fibers (diameter of 187 ± 13 µm) exhibit fatigue resistance (up to 20,000 cycles at 20% strain) with a stretchability of 64.

Cyclotides are a class of plant-derived cyclic peptides having a distinctive structure with a cyclic cystine knot (CCK) motif. They are stable molecules that naturally play a role in plant defense. Till date, more than 750 cyclotides have been reported among diverse plant taxa belonging to Cucurbitaceae, Violaceae, Rubiaceae, Solanaceae, and Fabaceae.

In the current work, the MWCNTs/ZnO nanocomposite was successfully synthesized using simple method. Then, FE-SEM, XRD, and EDX techniques were applied for morphological and structural characterization. Afterward, a sensitive voltammetric sensor based on modification of a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) using MWCNTs/ZnO nanocomposite was developed for the determination of doxorubicin in the presence of dacarbazine.

Na superionic conductor (NASICON)-structure NaMnV(PO) (NVMP) electrode materials reveal highly attractive application prospects due to ultrahigh energy density originating from two-electron reactions. Nevertheless, NVMP also encounters challenges with its poor electronic conductivity, Mn dissolution, and Jahn-Teller distortion. To address this issue, utilizing N-doped carbon layers and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for dual encapsulation enhances the material's electronic conductivity, creating an effective electron transport network that promotes the rapid diffusion and storage of Na.

The challenge of increasing food production while maintaining environmental sustainability can be addressed by using biofertilizers such as Azospirillum, which can enhance plant growth and colonize more than 100 plant species. The success of this biotechnology depends on the amount of plant growth-promoting bacteria associated with the plant during crop development. However, monitoring bacterial population dynamics after inoculation requires time-consuming, laborious, and costly procedures.
