Antimicrobial, mechanical and thermal studies of silver particle-loaded polyurethane.
(2013-12-09)
Silver-particle-incorporated polyurethane films were evaluated for antimicrobial activity towards two different bacteria: Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Distributed silver particles sourced ...
Self-assembly in nature: Using the principles of nature to create complex nanobiomaterials
(2013-11-01)
Self-assembly is a ubiquitous process in biology where it plays numerous important roles and underlies the formation of a wide variety of complex biological structures. Over the past two decades, materials scientists have ...
Low oxygen tension increased fibronectin fragment induced catabolic activities--response prevented with biomechanical signals.
(2013-10-25)
INTRODUCTION: The inherent low oxygen tension in normal cartilage has implications on inflammatory conditions associated with osteoarthritis (OA). Biomechanical signals will additionally contribute to changes in tissue ...
