Effect of thermal annealing on a bilayer polyvinyl alcohol/polyacrylic acid electrospun hydrogel nanofibres loaded with doxorubicin and clarithromycin for a synergism effect against osteosarcoma cells
(Elsevier, 2021-08-02)
Polyvinyl alcohol/polyacrylic acid (PVA/PAA) bilayer hydrogel nanofibres were successfully fabricated by
electrospinning and physically crosslinked via heat treatment. The effects of the thermal annealing
process on the ...
Structure response for cellulose-based hydrogels via characterization techniques.
(Springer, 2019)
Hydrogels are three-dimensional crosslinked polymeric networks capable of imbibing substantial amounts of water or biological fluids and are widely used in biomedical applications, especially in pharmaceutical industry as ...
Effect of unidirectional freezing using a thermal camera on polyvinyl (alchohol) for aligned porous cyrogels.
(Taylor & Francis Online, 2020-03-18)
Unidirectional freeze casting for polymers and ceramics has been performed extensively; however, the mechanisms involved in unidirectional freezing are not thoroughly understood and therefore, in this study, polyvinyl ...
Preparation and characterization of novel poly(vinyl) (alcohol) (PVA) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) hydrogels for sensitive hydrogels.
(Sciforum, 2014-05)
Stimuli Sensitive hydrogels have enormous potential in various applications. Various
environmental variables are found in the body, such as low pH and elevated temperatures. For this
reason, either pH-sensitive and/or ...
Electrospinning of hydrogels for biomedical applications
(Springer Nature, 2018)
The field of biomedical applications for hydrogels requires the development of nanostructures with specific controlled diameter and mechanical properties. Nanofibers are ideally candidates for these advanced requirements, ...

Yerba mate extract in microfibrillated cellulose and corn starch films as a potential wound healing bandage
(MDPI, 2020-11-27)
Microfibrillated cellulose films have been gathering considerable attention due to their high
mechanical properties and cheap cost. Additionally, it is possible to include compounds within the
fibrillated structure in ...
Effect of cullulose size-concentration on the structure of polyvinyl alcohol hydrogels.
(Elsevier, 2020-06-11)
Microfibrillated cellulose as a reinforcement agent has been investigated extensively due to their unique characteristics, which can reorder the structure of polymers and hydrogels leading to improved mechanical properties ...
Smart hydrogels: therapeutic advancements in hydrogel technology for smart drug delivery applications.
(Wiley, 2015-12)
Hydrogels are a fusion of solid and liquid phases which closely mimic biological tissue. As such they have enormous potential for drug delivery systems as they are biocompatible and may be tailored to specific applications. ...
Microfibrillated cellulose films containing chitosan and tannic acid for wound healing applications
(Springer, 2021-06-12)
The effectiveness of tannic acid as antimicrobial and wound healing for burns have been shown for a century; however, uncontrolled target dosage may result in undesirable side-effects. Remarkably, tannic acid polyphenols ...
