Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces. 2023 Sep 9;231:113535. doi: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2023.113535. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDiabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is one of the most serious complications of diabetes, potentially resulting in wound infection and amputation under severe circumstances. Oxidative stress and dysbiosis are the primary factors that delay wound healing, posing challenges to effective treatment. Unfortunately, conventional approaches in these aspects have proven satisfactory in achieving curative outcomes. Recent research has increasingly focused on using nanoparticles, leveraging their potential in wound dressing...

Assessment of the Alga < em > Cladophora glomerata < /em > as a Source for Cellulose Nanocrystals
Biomacromolecules. 2023 Sep 20. doi: 10.1021/acs.biomac.3c00380. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNanocellulose is isolated from cellulosic fibers and exhibits many properties that macroscale cellulose lacks. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are a subcategory of nanocellulose made of stiff, rodlike, and highly crystalline nanoparticles. Algae of the order Cladophorales are the source of the longest cellulosic nanocrystals, but manufacturing these CNCs is not well-studied. So far, most publications have focused on the applications of this material, with the basic manufacturing parameters and material properties receiving little a...

DNA is Better at Math than You Are
By KIM BELLARD I was tempted to write about the work being done at Wharton that suggests that AI may already be better at being entrepreneurial than most of us, and of course I’m always interested to see how nanoparticles are starting to change health care (e.g., breast cancer or cancer more generally), but when I saw what researchers at China’s Shanghai Jiao Tong University have done with DNA-based computers, well, I couldn’t pass that up.  If PCs helped change the image of computers from the big mainframes, and mobile phones further redefined what a computer is, then DNA computers may cause us to one day...

SMART RHESINs —Superparamagnetic Magnetite Architecture Made of Phenolic Resin Hollow Spheres Coated with Eu(III) Containing Silica Nanoparticles for Future Quantitative Magnetic Particle Imaging Applications (Small 38/2023)
Hollow NanospheresSMART RHESINs are novel iron oxide-filled hollow nanospheres coated with luminescent Eu(III) complex-containing silica nanoparticles. Unlike typical core/shell nanoparticles, SMART RHESINs retain unchanged effective Brownian and N éel relaxation even when fully immobilised in a viscous media. This unique behaviour makes SMART RHESINs potential quantitative magnetic particle imaging (MPI) probes for biological applications. More details can be found in article number2301997 by Esther S. R ösch and co-workers.

Synthesis of Iron Sulfide Nanocrystals Encapsulated in Highly Porous Carbon ‐Coated CNT Microsphere as Anode Materials for Sodium‐Ion Batteries
In this study, a concept of highly porous carbon-coated carbon nanotube (CNT) porous microspheres, which serve as excellent reservoir materials is suggested and a porous microsphere is developed by encapsulating iron sulfide nanocrystals within the highly porous carbon-coated CNTs using a sulfidation process. Furthermore, various sulfidation processes to determine the optimal method for achieving complete encapsulation are investigated by comparing the morphologies of diverse iron sulfide-carbon composites. The fully encapsulated structure, combined with the porous carbon, provides ample space to accommodate the significan...

Ligand ‐Directed Shape Reconfiguration in Inorganic Materials
Shape-changing nanoparticles are synthesized using an asymmetrical surface functionalization method. Contrary to the prevalent view of inorganic clays as inflexible, it is found that the halloysite particles can reversibly switch their shape state upon altering ligand-driven chemistry, resulting from the unbalanced structural hindrance on the particle surface. AbstractPolymer elastomers with reversible shape-changing capability have led to significant development of artificial muscles, functional devices, and soft robots. By contrast, reversible shape transformation of inorganic nanoparticles is notoriously challenging due...

ang Zhipeng Xie Developing robust and cost-effective electrocatalysts to boost hydrogen evolution reactions (HERs) and oxygen evolution reactions (OERs) is crucially important to electrocatalytic water splitting. Herein, bifunctional electrocatalysts, by coupling Co nanoparticles and N-doped carbon nanotubes/graphitic nanosheets (Co@NCNTs/NG), were successfully synthesized via facile high-temperature pyrolysis and evaluated for water splitting. The morphology and particle size of products were influenced by the precursor type of the cobalt source (cobalt oxide or cobalt nitrate). The pyrolysis product prepared using ...

Sensors, Vol. 23, Pages 7994: Solid-Phase Spectrometric Determination of Organic Thiols Using a Nanocomposite Based on Silver Triangular Nanoplates and Polyurethane Foam
mitrienko Adsorption of silver nanoparticles on polymers may affect the processes in which they participate, adjusting the analytical characteristics of methods for the quantitation of various substances. In the present study, a composite material based on silver triangular nanoplates (AgTNPs) and polyurethane foam was proposed for chemical analysis. The prospects of its application for the solid-phase/colorimetric determination of organic thiols were substantiated. It was found that aggregation of AgTNPs upon the action of thiols is manifested by a decrease in the AgTNPs&amp;rsquo; localized surface plasmon resona...
