Abstract:

The inherent design freedom of protein engineering and recombinant protein production enables specific tailoring of protein structure, function, and properties. Two areas of research where protein engineering has allowed for many advances in biomedical materials include the design of novel protein scaffolds for molecular recognition, as well as the use of recombinant proteins for production of next generation biomaterials. The main focus of my dissertation was to develop new biomedical materials using protein engineering. Chapters three and four discuss the engineering of repeat proteins as

Abstract:

Analysis of infant body temperature, environmental temperature and respiratory behaviour has become an important aspect of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome research. The application of engineering techniques as a means of providing research tools has been found to be beneficial for medical research. Signal processing techniques have been developed and applied to the analysis of physiological signals that have been collected from infants in the home environment. These techniques allow physiological signals to be analysed and correlated with the use of both time and frequency domain algorithms. Sign

Abstract:

A recently developed electrohydrodynamic direct-write printing method which can be applied to all types of materials and used to create ordered structures and complex patterns using coarse processing needles is described. Utilising co-axial flow of materials has been successful in enabling encapsulated structures to be generated by this technique. Topography is a crucial physical cue in influencing cellular responses and should be considered when designing biomedical architectures. Electrohydrodynamic printing is used in this work to generate ordered topographies with proven biomaterials. By c

Low temperature plasma surface alloying with nitrogen (nitriding), carbon (carburising) and both (carbonitriding) has been successfully employed in hardening medical grade ASTM F138, ASTM F1586 and ASTM F2581 as well as engineering grade AISI 316 by the formation of a modified layer better known as S-phase or expanded austenite. In this study, systematic plasma treatments and characterisation were performed on medical grade stainless steel in order to establish the optimised treatment conditions, especially temperature, which can maximise the hardened case depth without any detriment in corros

Abstract:

Surfactant coated microbubbles are widely used as contrast agents (UCA) in medical ultrasound imaging, due to their high echogenicity and non-linear response to acoustic excitation. Controlling the stability of microbubbles in vivo represents a considerable challenge. Understanding the characteristics of the bubble surface and how they change with production method, composition and environment is key to addressing this problem. The aim of this thesis is to investigate viscosity, bubble dissolution, and acoustic response as functions of their composition, manufacturing method and environment. B

Abstract:

Falls are common and burdensome accidents among the elderly. About one third of the population aged 65 years or more experience at least one fall each year. Fall risk assessment is believed to be beneficial for fall prevention. This thesis is about prognostic tools for falls for community-dwelling older adults. We provide an overview of the state of the art. We then take different approaches: we propose a theoretical probabilistic model to investigate some properties of prognostic tools for falls; we present a tool whose parameters were derived from data of the literature; we train and test a

Abstract:

Recently, the interest in implantable devices for biomedical telemetry has significantly increased. Amongst the different components of the implantable device, the antenna plays the most significant role in the wireless data transmission. However, the human body around the antenna alters its overall characteristics and absorbs most of its radiation. Therefore, this thesis is mainly focused on improving the antenna characteristics (bandwidth and radiation efficiency) to overcome the human body effect and investigating new structures that reduce the power absorption by the human body tissues.

This thesis addresses the problem of information hiding in low dimensional digital data focussing on issues of privacy and security in Electronic Patient Health Records (EPHRs). The thesis proposes a new security protocol based on data hiding techniques for EPHRs.

The aim of this project was to develop three-dimensional (3-D) constructs of phosphate-based glass fibres (PGF) incorporated dense collagen matrices for biomedical and tissue engineering applications.

The project objectives were: the understanding of structure-property relationship of PGF the understanding of the mechanisms of PC to produce dense collagenous matrices, and the application of PC to produce cellular 3

The growing rate of diabetes and undiagnosed diabetes related diseases is becoming a worldwide major health concern.

Using eNose technology with urinary volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is attractive as it allows non-invasive monitoring of various molecular constituents in urine.

Abstract:

<p> Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting is a rapidly growing field that is particularly well suited for “bottom up” tissue engineering, largely due to its ability to control the 3D shape of the engineered construct, as well as its constituents (<i>e.g.</i>, cells and/or material) and their spatial distribution. A variety of nozzle-based techniques have emerged for tissue engineering, and while these excel at building large 3D architectures, they suffer from moderate print resolution and limited printable materials, making them less attractive for smaller, high-resolution constructs.

Hydroxyapatite (HA) coated titanium (Ti) based dental and orthopaedic implants are widely utilised owing to their bone-bonding capability. However, the longevity of such implants is restricted by poor HA-Ti interfacial adhesion. In contrast, alternative coating materials such as titania (TiO2) and zirconia (ZrO2) have superior mechanical properties but are generally bioinert. Therefore, the performance of coated implants has been optimised by combining highly bioactive HA with mechanically superior TiO2 or ZrO2.
