3D printed end of arm tooling (EOAT) for robotic automation.
(MDPI, 2018-09)
This research furthers the practice of designing and manufacturing End of Arm Tooling
(EOAT) by utilizing a low cost additive manufacturing Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) technique
to enable tool weight saving and ...
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 ...
Extended release of proteins following encapsulation in hydroxyapatite/chitosan composite scaffolds for bone tissue engineering applications.
(Elsevier, 2018-03)
Highlights:
Biocompatible, mechanically robust scaffold with an appropriate stability for bone healing when used with fixation device.
Proteins can be covalently attached to the scaffold.
Proteins are released for an ...
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 ...
Material considerations for fused-filament fabrication of solid dosage forms.
(MDPI, 2018-04)
Material choice is a fundamental consideration when it comes to designing a solid dosage
form. The matrix material will ultimately determine the rate of drug release since the physical
properties (solubility, viscosity, ...
Investigation of ethylene oxide-co-propylene oxide for dissolution enhancement of hot-melt extruded solid dispersions.
(Elsevier, 2018-02)
The optimal design of amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) formulations requires the use of excipients to maintain supersaturation and improve physical stability in order to ensure shelf-life stability and better absorption ...
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 ...
Review of catheter-associated urinary tract infections and in vitro tract models.
(Hindawi, 2018-10)
Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) are one of the most common nosocomial infections and can lead to numerous medical complications from the mild catheter encrustation and bladder stones to the severe ...
