Anisotropic Scaffold for the Regeneration of Osteochondral Defects
A methacrylated hyaluronic acid scaffold with oriented pores perpendicular to the axial direction by an unidirectional freeze-drying method is reported.
Topographical control of preosteoblast culture by shape memory foams
This study expands the potential applications of the SMP foam in tissue engineering.
2016 Chemistry Nobel Prize: How Molecular Machines Benefit Polymer Science (and vice versa)
Modern chemical designers are often inspired by Nature as well as by man-made objects – think of the classical analogy between molecular building blocks and LEGO bricks, the lock and key principle, etc. This year’s chemistry Nobel laureates have certainly been inspired by a bit of both.
Architectural control and process limitations of porous bioceramics
Researchers optimized then evaluated the reliability and robustness of a bioceramic manufacturing process based on the impregnation of 3D-printed mold.
High-Performance Supercapacitors from Nickel Foam
Researchers from Singapore have grown nanoporous nickel sulfide on nickel foam to generate promising electrodes for supercapacitors.
Lighting up enzymatic drug release by FRET
A new generation of enzyme-responsive HPMA copolymer-drug conjugates employing a enzyme-sensitive oligopeptide linker was developed. Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) was applied to investigate the enzyme-responsive performance in both cells and animals.
Bending Fatigue Testing of Titanium for Dental Implants
Equal Channel Angular Pressing is applied to commercial purity titanium to increase its ability to resist failure due to cyclic loads.
A new ultralight magnesium alloy with a great promise for structural and biomedical applications
Developing increasingly lighter and stronger alloys for engineering applications is an ongoing – and never ending – endeavour of materials scientists.
A novel probe for in vivo sialome imaging
Researchers in China have developed a novel probe for in vivo sialome imaging. Based on the click reaction the fluorophore is generated in situ.
