Prussian white analogue nanoparticles were connected internally by a composite consisting of poly(butyl methacrylate) (PBMA) nano-gel and a conducting polymer layer via a one-step route. The powder falling problems have been mitigated by the intrinsic good binding strength of PBMA organogel; meanwhile, the conducting polymer provides extra transfer paths for electrons.

Bloodstream bacterial infections, a major health concern due to rising sepsis rates, require prompt, cost-effective diagnostics. Conventional methods, like CO-based transduction, face challenges such as volatile metabolites, delayed gas-phase signaling, and the need for additional instruments, whereas electrochemical sensors provide rapid, sensitive, and efficient real-time detection. In this study, we developed a bioreceptor-free Prussian blue (PB) sensor platform for real-time bacterial growth monitoring in blood culture.

Sodium manganese hexacyanoferrate, also called Prussian white (PW), has attracted much attention as a promising cathode material for Na-ion batteries due to its high-voltage platform and inexpensive elemental composition. However, their parasitic vacancies and water molecules often deteriorate the electrochemical performance. Proper regulation of such defects in scale-up preparation is still a challenge.

Article Synopsis
- Prussian White (PW) is a promising cathode material for sodium-ion batteries with high capacity and voltage, but its performance varies due to challenges in controlling hydration levels.
- This study focuses on understanding the dehydration and rapid rehydration processes of PW materials, which are critical for accurate characterization.
- Findings reveal that drying conditions significantly affect PW's properties and that samples quickly reabsorb moisture from the air, underscoring the importance of maintaining airtight conditions during experimentation.

Background: In the process of food production, ciprofloxacin (CIP), a highly prescribed fluoroquinolone antibiotic, is often excessively used to reduce the risk of bacterial infection. However, this overuse can cause severe harm to human health, including allergic responses, gastrointestinal complications, and potential renal dysfunction. The development of a robust and precise detection method for CIP is crucial, given the interconnection between food security and human health.

Article Synopsis
- Current anti-obesity medications have limited effectiveness and side effects because they target the brain or digestive system, rather than directly addressing fat tissue.
- This research presents a new therapy using Prussian blue nanoparticles applied through a skin patch that actively remodels white fat tissue, promoting weight loss and improved metabolism.
- In tests on fat cells and obese mice, this therapy significantly reduced fat mass and improved metabolic health while showing promising safety outcomes, offering a potential new approach to treat obesity and related conditions like type 2 diabetes.
