Lignin-Incorporated Nanogel Serving As an Antioxidant Biomaterial for Wound Healing.

ACS applied bio materials
Oxidative phosphorylation is an important biological process in the body to produce energy, during which oxygen free radicals are generated as byproduct. Excessive oxygen free radicals cause cell death and reduce the rate of tissue regeneration and h...

Biosynthetic self-healing materials for soft machines.

Nature materials
Self-healing materials are indispensable for soft actuators and robots that operate in dynamic and real-world environments, as these machines are vulnerable to mechanical damage. However, current self-healing materials have shortcomings that limit th...

Bioinspired Soft Microrobots with Precise Magneto-Collective Control for Microvascular Thrombolysis.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
New-era soft microrobots for biomedical applications need to mimic the essential structures and collective functions of creatures from nature. Biocompatible interfaces, intelligent functionalities, and precise locomotion control in a collective manne...

Machine learning as a tool to design glasses with controlled dissolution for healthcare applications.

Acta biomaterialia
The advancement of glass science has played a pivotal role in enhancing the quality and length of human life. However, with an ever-increasing demand for glasses in a variety of healthcare applications - especially with controlled degradation rates -...

Electronic Skin: Recent Progress and Future Prospects for Skin-Attachable Devices for Health Monitoring, Robotics, and Prosthetics.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
Recent progress in electronic skin or e-skin research is broadly reviewed, focusing on technologies needed in three main applications: skin-attachable electronics, robotics, and prosthetics. First, since e-skin will be exposed to prolonged stresses o...

Bio-inspired Design and Additive Manufacturing of Soft Materials, Machines, Robots, and Haptic Interfaces.

Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English)
Soft materials possess several distinctive characteristics, such as controllable deformation, infinite degrees of freedom, and self-assembly, which make them promising candidates for building soft machines, robots, and haptic interfaces. In this Revi...

3D Fabrication of Fully Iron Magnetic Microrobots.

Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)
Biocompatibility and high responsiveness to magnetic fields are fundamental requisites to translate magnetic small-scale robots into clinical applications. The magnetic element iron exhibits the highest saturation magnetization and magnetic susceptib...

Simultaneous spatiotemporal tracking and oxygen sensing of transient implants in vivo using hot-spot MRI and machine learning.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
A varying oxygen environment is known to affect cellular function in disease as well as activity of various therapeutics. For transient structures, whether they are unconstrained therapeutic transplants, migrating cells during tumor metastasis, or ce...
