Summary: The field of mechanical stimuli-responsive microcapsules has had significant impact on various applications such as damage visualization, self-healing coatings, aromatic embedding, drug delivery, and tactile simulation. Smart microcapsule technology leverages the embedding ability of microcapsules to trigger the release of core materials in specific environments. Mechanical stimulation is one of the most easily employed methods for triggering release compared to pH and temperature, leading to emerging research on release of core materials triggered by mechanical events. This review introduces the characteristics of materials responsive to mechanical stimuli, summarizes various mechanical trigger release modes and associated techniques, and explores applications, challenges, and future directions of mechanical stimuli-responsive microcapsules.

Summary: The combination of gene therapy and immunotherapy, along with advances in DNA nanotechnology, offers potential tools for cancer treatment. Stimuli-responsive microcapsules loaded with a viral immunogenetic agent were developed to target liver cancer cells or recognize breast cancer by expressing GFP. Incorporating a GFP-encoding lentivirus vector in tumor-targeting pH-stimulated microcapsules demonstrated neoplasm selectivity and significantly increased GFP expression in cancer cells. The incorporation of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in the gene vector enabled specific recognition of immune-evading hepatoma and resulted in effective elimination of the cancer cells.

Summary: This work investigates the catalytic activity of trimetallic mixed-metal oxyhydroxide WFeCoO(OH) for the direct oxidation of cyclohexane to adipic acid. The presence of acidic, basic, and redox sites on WFeCoO(OH) contributes to its enhanced catalytic performance. Surface lattice oxygen, acidity, and propensity to generate oxygen vacancies all play crucial roles in the catalytic process.

Summary: Catalytic oxidation using non-noble metal-based catalysts is a promising approach to reduce pollution caused by VOCs in the air. In this study, mesoporous Cu/TiO2 catalysts with different concentrations of Cu2+ were synthesized and characterized. The catalytic activity of Cu/TiO2 in the thermal oxidation of ethylene was investigated, showing higher activity compared to TiO2, especially with 1% Cu doping. The presence of Cu+ and Cu2+ ions, as well as oxygen vacancies, may contribute to the enhanced catalytic performance. Overall, Cu/TiO2 has demonstrated excellent catalytic activity and stability.
