Investigation of a novel freeze-thaw process for the production of drug delivery hydrogels
Nugent, Michael J.; Hanley, A.; Tomkins, P.T.; Higginbotham, C.L. (Springer, 2005-12)Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) is a water-soluble, biocompatible and biodegradable polymer, which has been widely applied in biomedical fields. In this paper, novel physically cross-linked hydrogels composed of PVA and comprising ... -
Preparation of a novel freeze thawed poly (vinly alcohol) composite hydrogel for drug delivery applications
Nugent, Michael J.; Higginbotham, Clement L. (Elsevier, 2007-09)Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) is a water-soluble, biocompatible and biodegradable polymer, which has been widely applied in biomedical fields. In this paper, novel physically cross-linked hydrogels composed of PVA and comprising ... -
A tough and novel dual-response PAA/P(NiPAAM-co-PEGDMA) IPN hydrogels with ceramics by photopolymerization for consolidation of bone fragments following fracture.
de Lima, Gabriel Goetten; Elter, Johanna Katrin; Chee, Bor Shin; Magalhães, Washington Luiz Esteves; Devine, Declan M.; Nugent, Michael J.; de Sá, Marcelo J.C. (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 ...
