Functionality of gold-edge-coated triangular silver nanoparticles in monitoring extracellular matrix protein conformations in C2C12/MC3T3-E1 culture in the presence of biomimetic bone tissue regeneration scaffolds
(TUS Midlands Midwest, 2022)
In the cellular environment high
noise levels can both mediate and
interfere with cellular functions.The extracellular matrix (ECM)
regulates protein dynamics and
trajectories, which underpin
critical biological ...
Scratch-resistant and well-adhered nanotube arrays produced via anodizing process on β-titanium alloy
(Elsevier, 2021-03)
Well-adhered nanotube arrays were produced through the anodizing technique on a Ti-25Nb-25Ta alloy and tribo-mechanically evaluated by nanoindentation and nanoscratch tests. Disregarding substrate effects, the hardness of ...
Hybrid manufacturing 3D printing and injection moulding in the pursuit of mass customization
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)
Project Overview:
Mass customization is a marketing and manufacturing technique which combines the flexibility and personalization of custom-made products with the low unit costs associated with mass production. The ...
The osteoinduction of C2C12 myoblast cell-line treated with growth factor-incorporated biocomposites
(TUS Midlands Midwest, 2022)
Bone regeneration scaffold serves as an alternative treatment to critical bone defects,
substituting the traditional gold standard autologous bone grafting. A number of
biomaterials and osteogenic growth factors are of ...
Effect of stereolithography 3D printing on the properties of PEGDMA hydrogels.
(MDPI, 2020-09-03)
Stereolithography (SLA)-based 3D printing has proven to have several advantages over
traditional fabrication techniques as it allows for the control of hydrogel synthesis at a very high
resolution, making possible the ...
Transfer and optimisation of injection moulding manufacture of medical devices using scientific moulding principles
(MDPI, 2021-10-25)
Scientific moulding, also known as decoupled injection moulding, is a production methodology used to develop and determine robust moulding processes resilient to fluctuations caused by variation in temperature and viscosity. ...
Application of biomaterials for complex anal fistulae
(Taylor & Francis, 2021-11-07)
Complex anal fistulae remain a challenge for the medical sector as conventional treatments put
patients at risk of incontinence. Clinicians and researchers have become interested in the application
of bioresorbable ...
Antimicrobial films containing green synthesised zinc oxide nanoparticles for biomedical applications
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)
Synthetic biomaterials have been vastly investigated for
different biomedical applications such as wound healing
adhesives, implant devices and drug delivery systems. The
effort on this field of study promoted the ...
Titanium-Niobium (Ti-xNb) alloys with high Nb amounts for applications in biomaterials
(Scielo, 2020-11-10)
The present study produced binary titanium-niobium alloys Ti-xNb with high niobium percentage
(x = 50, 80 e 90 wt.%) aiming to apply it as a base material in osseous implant devices. The produced
TiNb alloys presented a ...
On the possibility of replacement of calcium carbonate by a high-performance, economically viable filler in polyethylene composites
(Sage, 2021-07-14)
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is frequently added to polyethylene (PE) as a filler to reduce costs. An alternative to CaCO3, calcium fluoride (CaF2) was proposed in this research. PE/CaCO3 and PE/CaF2 composites in a wide ...
