Published: May 2022

Synthetic polymer-derived hollow carbon spheres have great utilitarian value in many fields for which the synthesis of proper polymer precursors is a key process. The exploration of new suitable polymer precursors and the construction of refined hollow structures in emerging polymers are both of great significance for synthetic methodology and novel carbon materials. Here, for the first time Schiff base polymer (SBP) colloid spheres with refined hollow structures were synthesized by tandem gradient growth and confined polymerization processes. The Hill equation was employed as a mathematical model to explain the gradient growth of SBP spheres. The size-dependent inner structure of SBP spheres can be adjusted from hollow to multichamber-surrounded hollow, and then to a multichamber structure. SBP-derived carbon spheres having similar surface area and chemical composition but different inner structures provide an effective way to investigate the relationship between inner structure and performance.

Background: Hollowness in the anteromedial, buccal, and lateral cheek regions is a common concern in aesthetic medicine, often resulting from age-related volume loss and structural changes. Advanced filler injection techniques that incorporate a thorough understanding of facial anatomy are critical for achieving optimal and safe outcomes.

Objective: To review and detail anatomically guided filler injection techniques for addressing hollowness in specific cheek regions, considering facial anatomy, ethnic variations, and patient-specific aesthetic goals.

To facilitate the translation of immunotherapies from bench to bedside, predictive preclinical models are essential. We developed the in vivo immuno-oncology Hollow Fiber Assay (HFA) to bridge the gap between simpler cell-based in vitro assays and more complex mouse models for immuno-oncology drug evaluation. The assay involves co-culturing human cancer cell lines or primary patient-derived cancer cells with human immune cells inside semipermeable hollow fibers.

Hydrogen peroxide (HO) electrosynthesis using metal-free carbon materials via the 2e oxygen reduction pathway has sparked considerable research interest. However, the scalable preparation of carbon electrocatalysts to achieve satisfactory HO yield in acidic media remains a grand challenge. Here, we present the design of a carbon nanoreactor series that integrates precise O/N codoping alongside well-regulated geometric structures targeting high-efficiency electrosynthesis of HO.

Improvement of Adsorption Capacity by Refined Encapsulating Method of Activated Carbon into the Hollow-Type Spherical Bacterial Cellulose Gels for Oral Absorbent.

Department of Materials and Applied Chemistry, College of Science and Technology, Nihon University, 1-8-14, Kanda-Surugadai, Tokyo 101-8308, Japan.

To reduce the risk of adsorption of granular activated carbon (AC) in the gastrointestinal tract, we successfully prepared a hollow-type spherical bacterial cellulose gel encapsulated with AC (ACEG) and evaluated its pH tolerance and adsorption capacity. The bacterial cellulose gel membrane of ACEG features a three-dimensional mesh structure of cellulose fibers, allowing the selective permeation of substances based on their size. In this study, the preparation method of ACEGs was investigated, and the indole saturation adsorption capacity of the obtained gel was measured.
