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 ...
Polymer based additive manufacturing historical developments, process types and material considerations.
(Springer Nature, 2019)
3D printing is a manufacturing technique where parts are built in a layer-by-layer fashion. The earliest embodiments were based on generating successive layers of solidified materials at the air liquid interface through ...
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 ...
Development of novel PVA-based nanoparticles for delivery system for bone cancer applications
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)
Osteosarcoma is one of the most frequent bone cancers with almost 30% of patients developin metastasis [1,2]. Further study is needed to develop new drugs that avoid metastasis. There is experimental evidence that chalcones, ...
Long-term release rate of a nutritional supplement from a biodegradable polymer matrix
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)
For the purposes of ruminant nutrition, a 6-month timeframe is
the ideal amount of time for the delivery of trace element and
minerals. As a starting element, copper was chosen as it is the
most commonly observed trace ...
