A multinational research team has discovered a mysterious tubular structure—previously unknown in any organism—within Profftella, a symbiotic bacterium associated with a major global citrus pest. This ...

The Asian citrus psyllid (left), a representative elongated Profftella cell containing numerous intracellular tubules (middle), and the architecture of a single tubular structure (right). A research ...

With the assistance of rotatable mandrel and slit projection systems, PLLP can rapidly achieve the manufacturing of single-layer or multi-layer multi-material structures. A novel 3D printing ...

The described basic practices aim to achieve postforming of tubular structures without critical defects such as folds, wrinkles, and fiber damage, while improving the external surface quality. The ...
