Composite cryogels for dual drug delivery and enhanced mechanical properties.
(Wiley, 2018-04)
In this study, we present a simple and effective process that integrates hydrogels with drugs + ceramics via physical crosslinks resulting in improved mechanical properties. These cryogels have the potential for controlled ...
A tough and novel dual-response PAA/P(NiPAAM-co-PEGDMA) IPN hydrogels with ceramics by photopolymerization for consolidation of bone fragments following fracture.
(IOP Science, 2019-07)
In this work, a novel dual-response hydrogel for enhanced bone repair following multiple fractures was investigated. The conventional treatment of multiple bone fracture consists on removing smaller bone fragments from the ...
Platelet-rich plasma, Hydroxyapatite, and Chitosan in the bone and cartilaginous regeneration of femoral trochlea in rabbits: clinical, radiographic, and histomorphometric evaluations.
(Hindawi, 2018-06)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the trochlear bone and cartilaginous regeneration of rabbits using the association of PRP,
chitosan, and hydroxyapatite. Hole was made in rabbit troches, one hole in each animal ...
Extraction method plays critical role in antibacterial activity of propolis loaded hydrogels.
(Elsevier, 2016-03)
Extracted propolis has been used for a long time as a remedy. However, if the release rate of propolis is not controlled, the efficacy is reduced. To overcome this issue, extracted propolis was added to a cryogel system. ...
A novel pH‐sensitive ceramic‐hydrogel for biomedical applications.
(Wiley, 2015-12)
Innovations on the field of smart hydrogels are now being held with loads of advantages. With recent progress, smart polymers can now be used on the market for specific target/objectives desired on medicine. However, the ...
Investigation of the effects of orientation on freeze/thawed Polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel properties.
(Elsevier, 2018-12)
Although hydrogels produced via freeze-thawing (F/T) technique have been thoroughly studied in literature, stretching hydrogels in between freeze-thawing cycles could change its properties and might be modulated for drug ...
Electrospun hydrogels composites for bone tissue engineering.
(Woodhead Publishing, 2019)
Electrospinning is one of the foremost nanotechnology applications to fabricate bone tissue engineering scaffolds with sizes in the nanometer range. It is regarded as a versatile, inexpensive, and relatively simple methodology ...
The production of a novel poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogel cryogenic spheres for immediate release using a droplet system.
(IOP Science, 2019-06-05)
Although freeze-thaw mechanism for producing crosslinked hydrogels is relatively easy and simple, it
lacks sufficient integrity and support leading to modifications on its three-dimensional polymeric
network arrangement ...
Bioactive composites fabricated by freezing-thawing method for bone regeneration applications.
(Wiley, 2016-04)
Hydrogels are widely used for controlled delivery of therapeutic agents. However, hydrogels lack bioactivity to encourage bone formation and mechanical integrity. Moreover, chemically crosslinked hydrogels exhibit cytotoxic ...
