We present results of temperature dependent measurements of dynamics of polymer grafted nanoparticles with high grafting density with star polymerlike morphology. We observed for the low grafting density and hence low functionality sample, a dynamically arrested state with lowering of temperature, similar to what was conjectured earlier. However the high grafting density sample shows liquidlike relaxation at all measured temperatures. Possible origin of dynamical arrest in the two grafting density sample is discussed.

Differential bone and vessel type formation at superior and dura periosteum during cranial bone defect repair.

The cranial mesenchyme, originating from both neural crest and mesoderm, imparts remarkable regional specificity and complexity to postnatal calvarial tissue. While the distinct embryonic origins of the superior and dura periosteum of the cranial parietal bone have been described, the extent of their respective contributions to bone and vessel formation during adult bone defect repair remains superficially explored. Utilizing transgenic mouse models in conjunction with high-resolution multiphoton laser scanning microscopy (MPLSM), we have separately evaluated bone and vessel formation in the superior and dura periosteum before and after injury, as well as following intermittent treatment of recombinant peptide of human parathyroid hormone (rhPTH), Teriparatide.

Purpose: To describe the demographic profile, clinical characteristics, and treatment trends of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) in Thai patients, reflecting the evolving landscape of corneal transplantation in this region.
Patients And Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 900 patients (1,743 eyes) diagnosed with FECD at a tertiary referral center in Thailand between January 2017 and June 2023. Demographic, clinical, and surgical data were analyzed, focusing on best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central corneal thickness (CCT), endothelial cell density (ECD), surgical interventions, and graft survival rate.
Role of polymer graft stiffness in electrostatic-driven self-assembly of nanoparticles in solutions.

Department of Chemical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar, India.
Self-assembly of nanoparticles (NPs) in solution has garnered tremendous attention among researchers because of their electrical, chemical, and optoelectronic properties at the macroscale with potential applications in bio-imaging, bio-medicine, and therapeutics. Control of size, shape, and composition at the nanoscale is important in tuning the material's bulk properties. The grafting of NPs with polymers enables us to tune such bulk material properties at the nano level by controlling their assemblies, especially in solutions.

NbO has become a focus of research for its suitability as an anode material in sodium ion capacitors (SICs), due to its open ionic channels. The integration of NbO with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) is known to boost its electrical conductivity. However, the sluggish interfacial charge transfer kinetics and interface collapse of NbO/rGO pose challenges to its rate capability and durability.

Copper-containing industrial wastewater, characterized by strong acidity, high ionic strength, and various competing metals, presents significant challenges for Cu(II) recovery. To address these issues, an electric field-enhanced ultrafiltration process was developed, assisted with a functional polyelectrolyte with high selectivity for Cu(II). The polyelectrolyte, termed PPEI, was synthesized by grafting picolyl groups onto polyethyleneimine (PEI), enhancing its affinity for Cu(II).
