Development of novel hydrogel based composites for bone tissue engineering applications.
(2013)The process of tissue engineering involves replacing and assisting in the healing of damaged tissues. Specifically for bone tissue repair, a clinical demand has developed for alternative materials to replace the existing ... -
Development of novel monolithic matrices for drug delivery using conventional and non-conventional polymer processing technologies.
(2007)The aim of this study was to produce a range of polymer based monolithic matrices for controlled oral drug delivery using conventional polymer processing equipment. Poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) was chosen as the primary ... -
Development of synthetic alternatives for bone tissue engineering.
(Australian Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 2013)Due to the inherent limitations of current biological bone grafts, alternative synthetic substitutes are being pursued. Therefore, this study aimed to improve the bioactive and compressive properties of photopolymerisable ...
