This week’s Advanced Healthcare Materials covers.
Microcyclic Structure Formation using Silver Nanopores
Gold nanoparticle assembly gets a little help from its friends: functionalised gold forms microscale structures via a guided silver aggregation strategy.
Use Zinc Oxide Flowers to Create Better Photocatalytic Properties
Researchers have studied low-dimensional nanoscale ZnO building blocks, such as 1D nanorods, 1D nanowires and 2D nanosheets. Recently it was found that mixing these materials with 3D hierarchical ZnO microstructures revealed special optical, electrical and catalytic properties.
Steps to Remedy In Vitro–In Vivo Discrepancies: Nanoparticle Interactions with Blood and Lymph
Interactions of nanoparticles with their surroundings, both in vitro and in vivo, are different simply because the environments are different. As such, the first insight towards answering complex questions associated with in vitro-in vivo translation are provided.
Improvement of Energy Storage Materials
Stable composites with high specific capacitance using a simple in situ anodic polymerization technique are synthesized.

Nanotherapeutic Systems for Local Treatment of Brain Tumors
Malignant brain tumors are heterogeneous and invasive, with high morbidity and mortality rates. The main challenge associated in treating such tumors is the presence of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which actively filters out molecules entering from the blood stream.

Mimicking the Structural Color of Stellar’s Jay
Inspired by Steller’s jay, researchers produce angle-independent, structurally colored materials composed of amorphous arrays of fine spherical silica colloidal particles.
