Joint disease and trauma are among the worst threats to the human beings.
Results demonstrated that the magnetic nanocomposites showed improved osteo-conducive activity in comparison to the nanohydroxyapatite.
The spatial distribution of the magnetic nanoparticles in the hydrogels induced gradient adhesion and proliferation of human osteoblasts(Fig 2).
This study is believed...

These composite thin films and the preparation technology can be expanded to the microintelligent thermal management system and microfluidic systems.
The novel self-propelled interfacial material and preparation technology can be used to the manufacture process and constructed a temperature-dependent tubule for microfluidic systems.

The measured output characteristics exhibit a typical ambipolar feature that the type of accumulated carriers depends on the magnitude and polarity of gate(VG)and drain(VDS)voltages.
A saturation field-effect mobility(μsat)of~0.16 cm2V-1s-1 and linear field-effect mobility(μlin)of~0.32 cm2V-1s-1 for p-channel and~0.63 cm2V-1s-1(μsat)and~1.02 cm2V-1s-1(μlin)for n-channel ...

The cost of the synthesis using a thermal decomposition method is high and the synthesized product has high cytotoxicity and poor water dispersibility.
The high T1-weighted MRI performance can be attributed to the ultrasmall size of metal-iron oxide nanoparticles.
Therefore,the metal-iron oxide nanoparticles with good water dispersibility and ultrasmall size can have potenti...

Cost is a key factor constraining the commercialization of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell(SOFC)stacks.
Improving the output power density of SOFC stacks has been considered an important way to reduce the cost effectively.
It was found that the depth of contacting between cathode and interconnect was the key factor influencing the output power density of SOFC stacks(Fuel Cells,11,445-...
