In alignment with the global movement toward reducing animal testing, several reconstructed human epidermis (RHE) models have been created for conducting skin irritation tests. These models have undergone development, verification, validation, and integration into OECD TG 439. Our team has introduced a novel in-house RHE named GB-RHE, and we adhere to OECD TG 439 to pre-validate the model and test its potential employment for nanoparticle irritation studies.

Background: Traditional lateral flow biosensors (LFBs), which utilize colorimetric signals as output, possess the virtues of simplicity and rapidity. However, it also suffers from insufficient sensitivity and limited reliability. It is well known that the results of LFBs can be false positive, and it is difficult to perform accurate quantification under low-abundance targets.

In the present study, with oregano essential oil (OEO) as the active ingredient and polyvinyl alcohol/citric acid (PVA/CA) as the composite matrix, ultraviolet (UV) responded PVA bio-active films incorporated with microcapsules, which were established by chitosan-incorporated titanium dioxide (TiO), were constructed. The UV light-triggered process changed the structure of films, including the degradation of PVA, the fracture of ester bonds and the breaking of glycosidic bonds. UV irradiation reduced the elongation at break, increased the light resistance ability, the surface hydrophobicity and the roughness, and accelerated the release of OEO in films.

All-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSBs) are among the most promising energy storage technologies, particularly for electric vehicles, due to their enhanced safety. However, performances of these systems are still hindered by interfacial side reactions at electrode/electrolyte interfaces, especially when sulfide electrolytes are used, and additional issues of mechanical nature. In this work, an ASSB system composed of an argyrodite (LiPSCl) electrolyte, a lithium-rich sulfide cathode (LiTiS) operating at moderate voltage, and a lithium metal anode is investigated.
