Abstract
The prevention of drying-induced cracking is crucial in maintaining the mechanical integrity and functionality of colloidal deposits and coatings. Despite exploring various approaches, controlling drying-induced cracking remains a subject of great scientific interest and practical importance. By introducing chain-like particles composed of the same material and with comparable size into commonly used colloidal suspensions of spherical silica nanoparticles, we can significantly reduce the cracks formed in dried particle deposits and achieve a fivefold increase in the critical cracking thickness of colloidal silica coatings. The mechanism underlying the crack suppression is attributed to the increased porosity and pore sizes in dried particle deposits containing chain-like particle, which essentially leads to reduction in internal stresses developed during the drying process. Meanwhile, the nanoindentation measurements reveal that colloidal deposits with chain-like particles exhibit a smaller reduction in hardness compared to those reported using other cracking suppression approaches. This work demonstrates a promising technique for preparing colloidal coatings with enhanced crack resistance while maintaining desirable mechanical properties.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) signals are fundamental for spectroscopy applications. However, existing substrates cannot perform a dynamically enhanced modulation of SERS signals. Herein, we developed a magnetically photonic chain-loading system (MPCLS) substrate by loading magnetically photonic nanochains of Fe3O4@SiO2 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with Au nanoparticles (NPs). We achieved a dynamically enhanced modulation by applying an external stepwise magnetic field to the randomly dispersed magnetic photonic nanochains that gradually align in the analyte solution. The closely aligned nanochains create a higher number of hot spots by new neighboring Au NPs. Each chain represents a single SERS enhancement unit with both a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect and photonic property. The magnetic responsivity of MPCLS enables a rapid signal enhancement and tuning of the SERS enhancement factor.

Abstract
A facile method is described to prepare micron partly hollow dumbbell silica particles in a single step. The obtained particles consist of a large dense part and a small hollow lobe. The spherical dense core as well as the hollow lobe are covered by mesoporous channels. In the case of the smaller lobe these channels are responsible for the permeability of the shell which was demonstrated by confocal imaging and spectroscopy.

Abstract
The control of the diameter of colloidal structures is of fundamental interest and practical importance. We synthesized segmented silica rods by regulating the reaction temperature while the rods were growing. With higher growth temperatures, the segment diameter became smaller. Longer incubation times gave longer segments at the same temperature. Similarly, high temperature for the same incubation time gave longer segments. It appears that the correlation between temperature and diameter results from the relation between temperature and the size of the emulsion droplet, that is, the higher the temperature, the smaller the emulsion droplet.

Abstract
Key concepts of the Nanoparticle-Allostatic Cross-Adaptation-Sensitization (NPCAS) Model for the action of homeopathic remedies in living systems include source nanoparticles as low level environmental stressors, heterotypic hormesis, cross-adaptation, allostasis (stress response network), time-dependent sensitization with endogenous amplification and bidirectional change, and self-organizing complex adaptive systems. The model accommodates the requirement for measurable physical agents in the remedy (source nanoparticles and/or source adsorbed to silica nanoparticles). Hormetic adaptive responses in the organism, triggered by nanoparticles; bipolar, metaplastic change, dependent on the history of the organism. Clinical matching of the patient's symptom picture, including modalities, to the symptom pattern that the source material can cause (cross-adaptation and cross-sensitization). Evidence for nanoparticle-related quantum macro-entanglement in homeopathic pathogenetic trials. This paper examines research implications of the model, discussing the following hypotheses: Variability in nanoparticle size, morphology, and aggregation affects remedy properties and reproducibility of findings. Homeopathic remedies modulate adaptive allostatic responses, with multiple dynamic short- and long-term effects. Simillimum remedy nanoparticles, as novel mild stressors corresponding to the organism's dysfunction initiate time-dependent cross-sensitization, reversing the direction of dysfunctional reactivity to environmental stressors. The NPCAS model suggests a way forward for systematic research on homeopathy. The central proposition is that homeopathic treatment is a form of nanomedicine acting by modulation of endogenous adaptation and metaplastic amplification processes in the organism to enhance long-term systemic resilience and health.

Abstract
By exploring the phenomenon of water diffusion induced self-assembly of silica particle in microfluidic channels, we show that both the geometric confinement experienced by the droplet and the local Peclet number are responsible for the final particle shape. This study will facilitate the understanding and ultimately control of self assembly at fluid interfaces.
