MOROF-1 shows a reversible and highly selective solvent-induced 'shrinking–breathing' process involving large volume changes that strongly influence the magnetic properties of the material, which could be the first stage of a new route towards magnetic solvent sensors.
Microencapsulation with alginate/CaCO3: A strategy for improved phage therapy

- 25 January 2017
It is evidenced that a cocktail of the three alginate/CaCO3-encapsulated bacteriophages had a greater and more durable efficacy than a cocktails of the corresponding non-encapped phages in as therapy in broilers against Salmonella, one of the most common foodborne pathogen.

Results demonstrate that an increase in circulating human rApoJ induces a reduction of insoluble Aβ and CAA load in the brain of APP23 mice, and suggests that peripheral interventions, based on treatments with multifunctional physiological chaperones, offer therapeutic opportunities to regulate the cerebral Aβ load.
Metal-biomolecule frameworks (MBioFs).
