Construction of textured bioinspired surfaces with refined structures that exhibit superior wetting properties is of great importance for many applications ranging from self-cleaning, antibiofouling, anti-icing, oil/water separation, smart membrane, and microfluidic devices. Previously, the preparation of artificial surfaces generally relies

Point-of-care (POC) diagnosis is of great significance in offering precise and personalized treatment for patients with eye diseases. Contact lenses, as a kind of popular wearable device on the eye, provide a suitable platform for the integration of biosensors for
As a typical antibiotic that is harmful to the health of human beings and widely used in animal husbandry, oxytetracycline (OTC) has a potential threat to the food safety. Therefore, the design of portable sensors for efficiently monitoring trace amounts

Photopolymerization is a selective technique that takes advantage of light-sensitive molecules to initiate and propagate monomeric structures to render covalently bonded macromolecular materials structures known as polymers. Herein, we present a novel one-step microfluidic synthesis of customized hybrid-thermoresponsive Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAm)
Low-cost, robust, and reusable continuous glucose monitoring systems that can provide quantitative measurements at point-of-care settings is an unmet medical need. Optical glucose sensors require complex and time-consuming fabrication processes, and their readouts are not practical for quantitative analyses. Here
