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 ...
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 ...
Ti-25Nb-25Ta alloy treated by plasma electrolytic oxidation in phosphoric acid for implant applications
(Rede Latino-Americana de Materiais, 2021)
Among titanium alloys with non-toxic elements, the Ti-25Nb-25Ta alloy has good elastic behavior for applications in osseous implants, biocompatibility, and excellent corrosion resistance. The present study aimed to
better ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Development of biphasic drug delivery PVA/propolis electrospun nanofibres
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)
The integration of nanotechnology into biomedical applications is called “nanomedicine”. Nanomedicine has the ability to change properties of materials at the molecular and atomic level [1]. Numerous methods have been ...
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 ...
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 ...
