Biomimetic Photomodulable Bactericidal Nanozyme Exploration of bactericidal nanozymes with simultaneously high biofilm penetration and bacterial capture capacities is crucial yet challenging for combating infections. In article number 2301694, Guang Liang, Fangyuan Li, Daishun Ling, co-workers report a biomimetic photomodulable nanozyme dually enhanced capacities. Notably, the catalytic activit...

Natural kingite-like aluminophosphate nanorolls were obtained by biomimetic synthesis using a mixed-organoamine template.

Biomimetic Soft Robots The combination of photo-thermal effect Au and the mismatch between thermal expansion coefficients LDPE film PI adhesive has enabled design sandwich-structured photo-responsive PI/Au/LDPE nanocomposite film. Thanks to its dexterous geometry design, stable reversible actuation behavior, remote precise driven mode, biomimetic soft robots with pre-engineered functionality co...

The biomimetic synthesis and full structural elucidation of rubicordifolin, a cytotoxic natural product isolated from Rubia cordifolia, is described.

There are several methods of addressing chronic rhinitis (CR), including the use of various drugs and medications. However, other non-pharmacological methods of improving paranasal function have recently become available, such as balloon sinuplasty. This case report describes the resolution of CR in a 12 yr. old girl, using biomimetic oral appliance therapy (BOAT). In this case, treatment was c...

We report an approach for fabricating biomimetic surface replicas of cells with nanoscale resolution. Fixed cells serve as a template for a two-stage replica molding process. Cast from the template, the impression replica contains a reproduction of cellular topographical features indented into its surface, and cast from the impression replica, the relief replica contains a copy of these feature...

Bridging superstructures added to small azamacrocycles, through the accompanying additional topological constraint, enhance the characteristic that makes azamacrocycles indispensable ligands for transition metal coordination including biomimetic chemistry: high complex stability. This review begins by briefly revisiting the coordination chemistry concepts leading to this advantage over less top...

This paper describes several models that incorporate some biomimetic mechanisms into the control architecture of an animat that has to survive in a changing environment. The adaptive capacities of these mechanisms are compared to engineering solutions, in application domains that involve navigation, action selection, and evolutionary design. It is argued that, although impressive adaptive capac...
