Bioresorbable chitosan-based bone regeneration scaffold using various bioceramics and the alteration of photoinitiator concentration in an extended UV photocrosslinking reaction in an extended UV photocrosslinking reaction
Azaman, Farah Alwani; Zhou, Keran; Blanes-Martínez, María del Mar; Brennan Fournet, Margaret (MDPI, 2022-10-28)Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is an ongoing field of research based on clinical needs to treat delayed and non-union long bone fractures. An ideal tissue engineering scaffold should have a biodegradability property ... -
Bone tissue engineering scaffold optimisation through modification of Chitosan/ceramic composition
Zhou, Keran; Azaman, Farah Alwani; Cao, Zhi; Brennan Fournet, Margaret; Devine, Declan M. (MDPI, 2023-06-01)A large bone defect is defined as a defect that exceeds the regenerative capacity of the bone. Nowadays, autologous bone grafting is still the gold standard treatment. In this study, a hybrid bone tissue engineering scaffold ... -
Development of a new bone scaffold for the treatment of large bone defects
Zhou, Keran; Cao, Tom Zhi; Brennan Fournet, Margaret; Devine, Declan (Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)Large bone defects are typically caused by incidents such as fractures, diseases, trauma or surgeries. Worldwide more that 3/5 million bone grafts (either autografts or allografts) are performed each year. -
Development of a new bone scaffold for the treatment of large bone defects
Zhou, Keran; Brennan-Fournet, Margaret; Cao, Zhi; Devine, Declan (Technological University of the Shannon Midlands Midwest, 2022)Large bone defects remains a major problem in orthopaedic surgery despite these advances in medical techniques. To date, autogenous bone grafting is still commonly therapeutic standard. However, it presents some ...
