Article Abstract
The microfluidic technique for the three-dimensional (3D) printing of Janus droplets offers precise control over their size, orientation, and positioning. The proposed approach investigates the impact of variables such as the volume ratio of the oil phase, droplet size, and the ratio of nonionic surfactants on the dimensions of the structured color apertures of Janus droplets. The findings reveal that structured color apertures modulate accurately. Furthermore, fabricating color patterns facilitates cat, fish, and various other specific shapes using structured color Janus droplets. The color patterns exhibit temperature-sensitive properties, enabling them to transition between display and concealed states. Herein, the adopted microfluidic technique creates Janus droplets with customizable characteristics and uniform size, solving orientation as well as space arrangement problems. This approach holds promising applications for optical devices, sensors, and biomimetic systems.

The solar-powered interfacial evaporation approach demonstrates extensive applicability prospects within seawater desalination domains. Traditional solar energy evaporators (SE) are often designed without regard to factors such as surface structure optimization and synergistic combination of heterogeneous materials. In this study, inspired by the unique structure of durian fruit peel, a Janus composite hydrogel SE (SPP@PAM) with pyramidal array features was innovatively designed.

Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become a common liver disease. Recombinant hirudin (R-Hirudin) is an manufactured product produced by genetic engineering technology which possesses antithrombotic and hypolipidemic effects, however, the role and molecular mechanisms of R-Hirudin in NAFLD are not clear. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore the potential mechanism of action and role of R-Hirudin in NAFLD.

Active (self-propelling) particles have emerged as innovative microscale tools in the field of single cell analysis with the advantages of being untethered, remotely controlled, hybrid powered, with sub-cellular precision. This study investigates the dielectrophoretic (DEP) response and electro-mechanical deformation of cell nuclei interacting with active metallo-dielectric Janus Particles (JPs) under an externally applied electric field. An "equivalent droplet" two-phase model is employed to simulate the bioparticle, coupling the Navier-Stokes equations with the phase field model to capture fluid motion and interface dynamics.
