Viscoelastic characterization is of great importance for the investigation of biomolecular condensates. Single-particle-tracking-based rotational diffusion analysis of single nanorods is an effective approach for quantitative viscosity measurement. H...
This paper seeks to design, develop, and explore the locomotive dynamics and morphological adaptability of a bacteria-inspired rod-like soft robot propelled in highly viscous Newtonian fluids. The soft robots were fabricated as tapered, hollow rod-li...
The design of obstetrical suction cups used for vacuum assisted delivery has not substantially evolved through history despite of its inherent limitations. The associated challenges concern both the decrease of risk of soft tissue damage and failure ...
Soft robotics could help providing a better understanding of the mechanisms underpinning the swallowability of solid oral dosage forms (SODF), especially by vulnerable populations such as the elderly or children. In this study a novel soft robotic in...
The ensuing pilot investigation sheds new light on characterizing tumoral and non-tumoral human skin mechanical properties that will not only assist the dermatologist's diagnosis but also could constitute the creation of an Artificial Intelligence da...
Deep learning, aided by the availability of big data sets, has led to substantial advances across many disciplines. However, many scientific problems of practical interest lack sufficiently large datasets amenable to deep learning. Prediction of anti...

BACKGROUND: Methylcellulose has been applied as a primary binding agent to control the quality attributes of plant-based meat analogues. H owever, a great deal of effort has been made to search for hydrocolloids to replace methylcellulose because of ...
Current research practice for optimizing bioink involves exhaustive experimentation with multi-material composition for determining the printability, shape fidelity and biocompatibility. Predicting bioink properties can be beneficial to the research ...
A remarkable variety of organisms use metachronal coordination (i.e. numerous neighboring appendages beating sequentially with a fixed phase lag) to swim or pump fluid. This coordination strategy is used by microorganisms to break symmetry at small s...
