Summary: In this study, robust and reusable magnetic chitosan/calcium alginate double-network hydrogel beads (CSMAB) were synthesized using an environmentally benign biocomposite material synthesis approach. These CSMAB beads were successfully used for the sequential adsorption of surfactant and removal of methylene blue dye. The beads had a double network hydrogel structure with sodium alginate and chitosan, and acidification of the surface with HCl ensured their reusability for pollutant removal in water. The CSMAB beads were characterized using various techniques, and their adsorption capacity and efficiency for surfactant and dye removal were evaluated.

Summary: Hydrogels are versatile biomaterials with three-dimensional, cross-linked, highly hydrated polymeric networks. They have a variety of biochemical and biophysical properties, allowing for diffusion of diverse molecules and control of cellular interactions. Hydrogels can be molded into different structures resembling surrounding tissues and bone defects. Their application in bone tissue engineering has garnered significant attention due to the beneficial bone improvement results achieved. Synthetic polymers have played a key role, but there is a trend towards using biological precursors like chitosan, collagen, and gelatin for their high biocompatibility, degradability, and mechanical control.

Summary: The present research focuses on the fabrication and characterization of magnetic Fe3O4 incorporated chitosan grafted acrylamide and N-vinylimidazole composite hydrogels (CANFe-1 to CANFe-7). The swelling study showed that CANFe-4 had the highest swelling efficiency, thus it was chosen for the subsequent removal studies. The pH sensitive adsorptive removal of cationic dye (methylene blue) was dominant at pH = 8, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 860 mg/g. The CANFe-4 composite hydrogel can be conveniently separated from the solution using an external magnet, making it a promising adsorbent for wastewater treatment.

Summary: The introduction of vacancies in a Ru composite structure with vacancy-rich carbon dots (CDs) leads to the construction of Ru@CDs, which exhibit excellent catalytic performance with a low overpotential of less than 30 mV at 10 mA cm(-2) in 1 m KOH, a small Tafel slope of less than 22 mV decade(-1), and robust stability even after 10,000 cycles. Spectroscopic characterizations and theoretical calculations show that the rich vacancies and electron interactions between Ru and CDs synergistically maximize the activity of the Ru@CDs electrocatalyst.

Summary: We present a stretchable electronic facial mask (SEFM) as a platform for facial healthcare, capable of integrating various sensors and actuators. A specific SEFM for sonophoresis is developed to enhance the delivery effect of a drug mask. Various approaches, including the design of a joined silicone layer and the single-side soft pressing (SSSP) technique, are employed to overcome technical challenges and can be extended to the design and fabrication of other stretchable electronics. The mechanical, thermal, electrical, and ultrasonic characteristics of the SEFM are validated through finite element analysis and experiments. Results from animal and human facial experiments demonstrate the SEFM's ability to accelerate drug delivery and increase skin moisture content.

Summary: Carbon dots (CDs) have wide applications in metal ion recognition and detection, promising in environmental monitoring and biomedical science. However, due to the presence of multiple functional groups with different affinities, the prediction of recognized metal ions is limited. In this study, CDs with different chelating ligands were synthesized, and specific recognition of Fe3+ and Cu2+ was achieved. Exponential type functions were established to predict the specific recognition of metal ions. This study proposes a new strategy for specific recognition of heavy metal ions using tailor-made CDs with chelating ligands.

Summary: Controlled drug delivery systems that can respond to mechanical force offer a unique solution for on-demand drug activation and release. Among various mechanical stimuli, ultrasound (US) has advantages in achieving spatiotemporally controlled drug release. Traditional US-triggered drug release relies on heat-induced phase transitions or chemical transformations, while the cutting-edge approach of Sonopharmacology leverages polymer mechanochemistry. The remaining challenges and potential future directions in this field are also discussed.

Summary: Coacervate droplets formed through liquid-liquid phase separation have potential as delivery vesicles for therapeutics. However, their lack of physiological stability and membranes are challenges. In this study, polylysine-polynucleotide complex coacervate droplets with favorable stability were formulated to concentrate molecules and nanoparticles. Phospholipid membranes were further coated on the droplets to create coacervate-based artificial protocells (ArtPC) with membrane-like structures. These biofunctional ArtPC effectively reduced blood uric acid levels and prevented renal injuries.
