Abstract
Ultra-small Ag nanoparticles (<5 nm) loaded on a kaolinite surface were successfully prepared in large batches by a dry-process, displaying excellent broad-spectrum antimicrobial ability and size-dependent activity. This Ag-loaded kaolinite (Ag@AT/K) inhibited the growth of pathogenic bacteria and accelerated wound healing in in vivo experiments on MRSA-infected wounds. This work provides a new strategy for the preparation of mineral-based nanoscale antibacterial materials.

An intumescent flame-retardant system based on carboxymethyl cellulose for flexible polyurethane foams with outstanding flame retardancy, antibacterial properties, and mechanical properties.

Abstract
A novel and eco-friendly intumescent flame-retardant system based on sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) was established for wide-used flexible polyurethane foams (FPUFs). FPUF-(APP6CMC1)GN1 with extremely uniform coatings extinguished and reached the UL-94 V-0 rating, and presented an improvement of thermal insulation properties. Moreover, there was a 58 % reduction in peak heat release rate for FPUF-(APP6CMC1)GN1 compared with that of FPUF, and the microstructure analysis of char residues indicated that a perfect intumescent char layer had formed on the surface of FPUFs. Especially, CMC and GN enhanced the compactness and stability of char layers. Therefore, little volatile production was generated under the protection of physical layers in the high temperature as evaluated during the thermal degradation processes. Meanwhile, the flame-retardant FPUFs remained the ideal mechanical properties and obtained excellent antibacterial properties, and the antibacterial rates of E.coli and S.aureus were 99.9 % (FPUF-(APP6CMC1)GN1). This work provides an eco-friendlier strategy for the design of multi-function FPUFs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative impairment mainly recognized by memory loss and cognitive deficits. However, the current therapies against AD are mostly limited to palliative medications, prompting researchers to investigate more efficient therapeutic approaches for AD, such as stem cell therapy. Recent evidence has proposed that extensive neuronal and synaptic loss and altered adult neurogenesis, which is perceived pivotal in terms of plasticity and network maintenance, occurs early in the course of AD, which exacerbates neuronal vulnerability to AD. Thus, regeneration and replenishing the depleted neuronal networks by strengthening the endogenous repair mechanisms or exogenous stem cells and their cargoes is a rational therapeutic approach. Currently, several stem cell-based therapies as well as stem cell products like exosomes, have shown promising results in the early diagnosis of AD. OBJECTIVE This review begins with a comparison between AD and normal aging pathophysiology and a discussion on open questions in the field. Next, summarizing the current stem cell-based therapeutic and diagnostic approaches, we declare the advantages and disadvantages of each method. Also, we comprehensively evaluate the human clinical trials of stem cell therapies for AD. METHODOLOGY Peer-reviewed reports were extracted through Embase, PubMed, and Google Scholar until 2021. RESULTS With several ongoing clinical trials, stem cells and their derivatives (e.g., exosomes) are an emerging and encouraging field in diagnosing and treating neurodegenerative diseases. Although stem cell therapies have been successful in animal models, numerous clinical trials in AD patients have yielded unpromising results, which we will further discuss.

Abstract
Vaseline gauze is a common type of wound dressing that consist of absorbent gauze impregnated with white petrolatum. It has excellent anti-adhesive property which can reduce trauma during dressing changes. However, this kind of wound dressing doesn't have bacterial killing property. Thus, a new kind of wound dressing that has anti-adhesive and bactericidal properties is needed urgently. Creating slippery liquid-impregnated porous surfaces (SLIPS) that insensitive to the structure of porous solid are generally viewed as a new anti-adhesion strategy. To expand the potential utility of SLIPS as substitute for vaseline gauze, dual-functional slippery membranes with anti-adhesion and bactericidal properties by using triclosan, vegetable oils and polylactic acid (PLA) were prepared. It's demonstrated that the triclosan-loaded/vegetable oils-infused PLA membranes (T/V-PM) has good cytocompatibility in vitro. Notably, the T/V-PM can gradually release biocide molecule into surrounding aqueous media. Moreover, the T/V-PM can kill planktonic bacterial cells without loss of their antifouling property. The in vivo study revealed that the T/V-PM can prevent the secondary injuries during wound dressing changes. This simple and low-cost strategy can be applied to inhibit blood and bacterial adhesion, and prevent tissue adhesion at the wound site. It's confirmed that the T/V-PM have great potential as substitute for vaseline gauze.

Abstract
Antibacterial textile materials are widely used in daily life, but most are disposable products with poor antibacterial durability. N-halamine can rapidly inactivate microorganisms, has good stability, and shows great potential applications in antibacterial fabrics. In this study, an N-halamine monomer precursor was synthesized and treated onto PET fabrics. The treated PET fabrics were rendered antibacterial functionality after chlorination, and exhibited good antibacterial properties with inactivation rate of 100.0 % for both E. coli O157:H7 and S. aureus. After 50 wash cycles, the chlorinated treated PET fabrics could maintain 80.0 % antibacterial efficacy, demonstrating durable antibacterial properties. Storage stability and UV irradiation tests showed that the treated PET fabrics had remarkable regenerable properties. The reduction of the breaking strength was within 12 % after treatment, which is in a satisfying range in antimicrobial finishing.

Abstract
We propose a novel method to exploit chirality of highly sensitive graphene plasmonic metasurfaces to characterize complex refractive indexes (RI) of viruses by detecting the polarization state of the reflected electric fields in the THz spectrum. A dispersive graphene metasurface is designed to produce chiral surface currents to couple linearly polarized incident fields to circularly polarized reflected fields. The metasurface sensing sensitivity is the result of surface plasmon currents that flow in a chiral fashion with strong intensity due to the underlying geometrical resonance. Consequently, unique polarization states are observed in the far-field with the ellipticity values that change rapidly with the analyte's RI. The determination of bimolecular RI is treated as an inverse problem in which the polarization states of the virus is compared with a pre-calculated calibration model that is obtained by full-wave electromagnetic simulations. We demonstrate the polarization selective sensing method by RI discrimination of three different types of Avian Influenza (AI) viruses including H1N1, H5N2, and H9N2 is possible. Since the proposed virus characterization method only requires determination of the polarization ellipses including its orientation at monochromatic frequency, the required instrumentation is simpler compared to traditional spectroscopic methods which need a broadband frequency scan.

Abstract
Superhydrophobic cotton fabrics were fabricated using chitosan/titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanocomposites. Morphology results revealed that the fabric's surface was utterly coated by the nanoparticles leading to the formation of a highly packed nano-scale structure in the case of superhydrophobic coating. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results also proved that TiO2 nanoparticles were highly adsorbed onto the fabric's top layer. Durability of the superhydrophobic coating was investigated by immersing the fabric into harsh solutions and also by subjecting the fabric to sonication. The results showed the high resistance of the superhydrophobic fabric against harsh conditions. The nanocomposite-coated fabrics were found to exhibit promising UV-protecting properties especially for the superhydrophobic fabric which showed around 80% enhancement in the UV protecting properties as compared with the uncoated fabric. The bacterial adhesion results revealed that the combination of chitosan and TiO2 results in high antibacterial properties against E. coli and S. aureus bacteria. The bacterial reduction percentages were further increased to 99.8 and 97.3% against E. coli and S. aureus, respectively, once the superhydrophobic character was also induced to the fabrics. The developed nanocomposite coated fabrics exhibited promising potential to be used as antibacterial and self-cleaning garments in hospital-related applications.

Abstract
Bacterial infectious diseases and bacterial-infected environments have been threatening the health of human beings all over the world. In view of the increased bacteria resistance caused by overuse or improper use of antibiotics, antibacterial biomaterials are developed as the substitutes for antibiotics in some cases. Among them, antibacterial hydrogels are attracting more and more attention due to easy preparation process and diversity of structures by changing their chemical cross-linkers via covalent bonds or noncovalent physical interactions, which can endow them with various specific functions such as high toughness and stretchability, injectability, self-healing, tissue adhesiveness and rapid hemostasis, easy loading and controlled drug release, superior biocompatibility and antioxidation as well as good conductivity. In this review, the recent progress of antibacterial hydrogel including the fabrication methodologies, interior structures, performances, antibacterial mechanisms, and applications of various antibacterial hydrogels is summarized. According to the bacteria-killing modes of hydrogels, several representative hydrogels such as silver nanoparticles-based hydrogel, photoresponsive hydrogel including photothermal and photocatalytic, self-bacteria-killing hydrogel such as inherent antibacterial peptides and cationic polymers, and antibiotics-loading hydrogel are focused on. Furthermore, current challenges of antibacterial hydrogels are discussed and future perspectives in this field are also proposed.
