Microfluidic fabrication of calcium alginate helical microfibers for highly stretchable wound dressing

Wenjun Ma et al.

Summary: In this study, alginate was spun into helical fibers using the microfluidic method, and then packed with polyacrylamide to create a calcium alginate/PAM composite polymer membrane. This composite film greatly improved flexibility and stretchability, had good transparency and skin adhesion, and showed potential for wound dressing applications. The introduction of the helical shape also has reference significance for enhancing the elasticity and stretchability of other natural polymers limited by mechanical properties.

A colorimetric smartphone-based platform for pesticides detection using Fe-N/C single-atom nanozyme as oxidase mimetics

Jia Ge et al.

Summary: In this study, a novel highly sensitive colorimetric platform based on FeN/C SAzyme was designed for malathion assay. The synthesized SAzyme could directly oxidize 3,3,' 5,5 '-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to generate oxidized TMB, which exhibited a blue color. The addition of malathion hindered the ACP activity and restored the catalytic activity of single-atom nanozyme, enabling the quantitative detection of malathion.
