Customized modular multi-material mouthguard and method of making the same
Dominique Pioletti, Naser Nasrollahzadeh Mamaghani, Martin Broome
There is described a mouthguard comprising an externally exposed impact protective region defined by a first material property and configured to cover a front tooth, an internally exposed occlusional cushioning region defined by a second material property ...
2024Fluorescent fatty acid conjugates for live cell imaging of peroxisomes
Luc Reymond, Fabien Kuttler, Milena Maria Schuhmacher, Daria Korotkova, Manon Sandra Bardyn, Triana Amen
Peroxisomes are eukaryotic organelles that are essential for multiple metabolic pathways, including fatty acid oxidation, degradation of amino acids, and biosynthesis of ether lipids. Consequently, peroxisome dysfunction leads to pediatric-onset neurodegen ...
2024Using Complex Hydrides for Hydrogen Storage and Direct Borohydride Fuel Cells for Electricity Production
Hydrogen storage and utilization are the technologies to achieve carbon-neutral energy systems with renewable energy sources. Among the various materials that have been investigated, complex hydrides are a material exhibiting high gravimetric hydrogen dens ...
EPFL2023Force microscopy of the Caenorhabditis elegans embryonic eggshell
Martinus Gijs, Thomas Lehnert, Roger Philippe Krenger
Assays focusing on emerging biological phenomena in an animal's life can be performed during embryogenesis. While the embryo of Caenorhabditis elegans has been extensively studied, its biomechanical properties are largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that ...
NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP2020Hierarchically Patterned Polydopamine-Containing Membranes for Periodontal Tissue Engineering
Periodontitis is a common chronic inflammatory disease that affects tooth-supporting tissues. We engineer a multifunctional periodontal membrane for the guided tissue regeneration of lost periodontal tissues. The major drawback of current periodontal membr ...
2019A review of the concepts, recent advances and niche applications of the (photo) Fenton process, beyond water/wastewater treatment: Surface functionalization, biomass treatment, combatting cancer and other medical uses
The Fenton reaction was discovered over 120 years ago, yet our understanding of the complete reaction mechanism of the seemingly simple iron and hydrogen peroxide reaction (Fe + H2O2) remains unclear, thus limiting its full potential. In this work, the aim ...
ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV2019Development of a novel mechanical micro-engraving method for the high-aspect-ratio microstructures of an advanced window system
André Gabriel Kostro, Josef Andreas Schuler, Jing Gong, Antoine Robert Michel Delaunay
A transparent polymer film with embedded micro mirrors is developed, and it can be attached to a window glass pane for daylighting, improving visual comfort and reducing cooling load in buildings by redirecting sunlight. Despite existing cutting-edge techn ...
2018Description of Fornasinius hermes sp. nov. (Coleoptera, Cetoniidae, Goliathini)
Fornasinius hermes sp. nov. is described from North-East Uganda; type locality: Mt Morungole, Kidepo valley. The new species is reminiscent of Fornasinius fornasini Bertoloni, 1852 and Fornasinius aureosparsus (Neervoort Van De Poll, 1890), but presents a ...
2017Molecular dynamics simulations of the intrinsically disordered protein amelogenin
John Christopher Plummer, Matteo Gregorio Modesto Marascio, Alessandra Apicella, Vincenzo Colangelo
Amelogenin refers to a class of intrinsically disordered proteins that are the major constituents of enamel matrix derivative (EMD), an extract of porcine fetal teeth used in regenerative periodontal therapy. Modifications in molecular conformation induced ...
Taylor & Francis Inc2017Post-tensioned glass beams
Over the last few decades, the application of glass in building construction has extended from small four-side supported windowpanes to areas traditionally reserved for other materials, such as roofs, floors, staircases and full building envelopes. Glass i ...
