Particle self-assembly in sessile droplet on patterned substrate by Lim, Si Xian

“…All the droplets evaporated in CCR mode and exhibit an octagonal wetting area except 0.1(wt%) for both the 3μm and 10μm particles with depinning of contact line take placed. This indicates that the particle is the pinning force that prevents contact line withdrawal. …”

Generation of self-replicating airway organoids from the cave nectar bat Eonycteris spelaea as a model system for studying host-pathogen interactions in the bat airway epithelium by Chan, Louisa L. Y., Gamage, Akshamal M., Tan, Chee Wah, Tan, Kai Sen, Liu, Jing, Tay, Douglas Jie Wen, Foo, Randy Jee Hiang, Rénia, Laurent, Wang, De Yun, Wang, Lin-Fa

“…However, these ALI-AECs did not support SARS-CoV-2 infection, despite E. spelaea ACE2 receptor being capable of mediating SARS-CoV-2 spike pseudovirus entry. This work provides critical model systems for assessing bat species-specific virus susceptibility and the reservoir likelihood for emerging infectious agents.…”
