Genome-Resolved Proteomic Stable Isotope Probing of Soil Microbial Communities Using 13CO2 and 13C-Methanol (open access)

Genome-Resolved Proteomic Stable Isotope Probing of Soil Microbial Communities Using 13CO2 and 13C-Methanol

Article describes experiment where proteomic sable isotope probing (SIP) was combined with targeted metagenomic binning to reconstruct metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of the microorganisms producing labeled proteins. Carbon flows were tracked from 13CO2 to the rhizosphere communities of Zea mays, Triticum aestivum, and Arabidopsis thaliana.

Surface Nanostructures Enhanced Biocompatibility and Osteoinductivity of laser-Additively Manufactured CoCrMo Alloys (open access)

Surface Nanostructures Enhanced Biocompatibility and Osteoinductivity of laser-Additively Manufactured CoCrMo Alloys

Article describes how cobalt–chromium–molybdenum (CoCrMo) alloys are widely used in orthopedic implants due to their excellent corrosion and wear resistance and superior mechanical properties. In this study, the authors prepared CoCrMo alloys with surface nanostructures of various aspect ratios (AR) using laser-directed energy deposition (L-DED) and biocorrosion.

OptiFit: Computer-Vision-Based Smartphone Application to Measure the Foot from Images and 3D Scans (open access)

OptiFit: Computer-Vision-Based Smartphone Application to Measure the Foot from Images and 3D Scans

Article asserts that the foot is a vital organ, as it stabilizes the impact forces between the human skeletal system and the ground. The authors present an instep girth measurement algorithm, and they used a pixel per metric algorithm for measurement; these algorithms were accordingly integrated with the application.
