Abstract:

The bioengineer has a choice of building with proteins, peptides, polymers, nucleic acids, lipids, metals and minerals, each class containing tremendous diversity within its category. While the platforms are diverse, they can be unified by a common goal: to engineer nano- and micro-scale order to improve functionality. In doing so, self-assembling systems aim to bring the lessons learned from the order in natural systems83 into the therapeutics, materials, and electronics that society uses every day. The rigid geometry and tunable chemistry of D,L-cyclic peptides make them an intriguing buildi

Abstract:

<p> Chitosan is a naturally derived polymer, which represents one of the most technologically important classes of active materials with applications in a variety of industrial and biomedical fields. Polymeric materials can be regarded as promising candidates for next generation devices due to their low energy payback time. These devices can be fabricated by high-throughput processing methodologies, such as spin coating, inkjet printing, gravure and flexographic printing onto flexible substrates. However, the extensive applications of polymeric films are still limited because of disadvantages

Abstract:

<p> A new paradigm in biomedical engineering calls for biologically active implants that are absorbed by the body over time. One popular application for this concept is in the engineering of endovascular stents that are delivered concurrently with balloon angioplasty. These devices enable the injured vessels to remain patent during healing, but are not needed for more than a few months after the procedure. Early studies of iron- and magnesium-based stents have concluded that magnesium is a potentially suitable base material for such a device; alloys can achieve acceptable mechanical properties

Abstract:

Magnesium has been identified as a promising biodegradable implant material because it does not cause systemic toxicity and can reduce stress shielding. However, it corrodes too quickly in the body. Titanium, which is already used ubiquitously for implants, was chosen as the alloying element because of its proven biocompatibility and corrosion resistance in physiological environments. Thus, alloying magnesium with titanium is expected to improve the corrosion resistance of magnesium. Mg-Ti alloys with a titanium content ranging from 5 to 35 at.-% were successfully synthesized by mechanical all

Surface thermomechanical processing was explored as a way to improve the fatigue strength of Ti-6Al-4V load bearing orthopaedic prosthesis.

The microknurling is essentialIty an indentation technique and thus generates plastic deformation which is limited to the surface.

The presence of a microbial biofilm on medical implants and devices remains a serious clinical problem since it can increase the risk of infection. To prevent biofilm formation, it is important to study the initial stages of bacterial adhesion.

To accomplish this, kinetics of E. faecalis adhesion were followed using a DNA quantification assay. The influence of biomaterial surface properties, including surface wettability and roughness, was investigated.

Bacteria primarily exist in robust, surface-associated communities known as biofilms, ubiquitous in both natural and anthropogenic environments. Mature biofilms resist a wide range of biocidal treatments and pose persistent pathogenic threats. Treatment of adherent biofilm is difficult, costly, and, in medical systems such as catheters, frequently impossible. Adding to the challenge, we have discovered that biofilm can be both impenetrable to vapors and extremely nonwetting, repelling even low surface tension commercial antimicrobials.
