The present work highlights development flexible copper-based micro-electrode array (MEA) patch over polyimide substrate for triggering ES-induced accelerated applied DC potentials only. Simulation highlight ES optimization varying maximum 0.2, 0.4, 1.0 V toward generation effective field-induced electrotaxis. A simulated was fabricated using unique screen-printed masking technique involving use polyvinyl chloride (PVC) ink as material copper film to realize MEA structures. An integrated pH sensor also screen printing Ag/AgCl same monitor situ blood levels. developed low-cost patches showed good electrical continuity well flexibility skin conformality. It thereafter mounted an 8 mm diameter cutaneous on rat model, appropriate per simulation data. Post-healing were visually verified examined histological changes tissue cross-sections, correlation between findings visual observations obtained. significant reduction time achieved (9 days) through this study optimized potential 0.4 V, unlike control samples, which took 13 days healing. mimicked natural potential, thereby clearly demonstrating effectiveness

Reducing the swelling of tissue-adhesive hydrogels is crucial for maintaining stable tissue adhesion and inhibiting inflammation. However, reported strategies reducing always result in a simultaneous decrease adhesive strength hydrogel. Furthermore, once covalent bonds break currently hydrogels, they cannot be rebuilt, hydrogel loses its ability. In this work, nonswelling (named as "PAACP") possessing regenerable high synthesized by copolymerizing crosslinking poly(vinyl butyral) with acrylic acid, gelatin, chitosan-grafted N-acetyl-l-cysteine. The obtained PAACP reaches 211.4 kPa, which approximately ten times higher than that can reused multiple cycles. as-prepared shows great potential soft bioelectronics, muscle fatigue successfully monitored via electrode array strain sensor integrated on substrates. success these bioelectronics offers applicability long-term diagnosis muscle-related health conditions prosthetic manipulations.
