Antibacterial effects of bio-inspired nanostructured materials
Several properties of bio-inspired surfaces like chemical composition, surface topography, surface hydrophilicity and even surface charge could influence bacterial adhesion to implant materials. Therefore, a nanostructured surface is being investigated to avoid bacterial colonization by their physico-mechanical and chemical aspects. Both smooth and rough-surfaced titanium (PT, SLA) and zirconia...
متن کاملTough, bio-inspired hybrid materials.
The notion of mimicking natural structures in the synthesis of new structural materials has generated enormous interest but has yielded few practical advances. Natural composites achieve strength and toughness through complex hierarchical designs that are extremely difficult to replicate synthetically. We emulate nature's toughening mechanisms by combining two ordinary compounds, aluminum oxide...
متن کاملBio-inspired materials: unnatural life.
A t the turn of the nineteenth century, Pieter Harting and George Rainey laid the foundations of a science called “synthetic morphology”1. The inspiration for the name probably came from Wöhler’s discovery of urea synthesis in 1828, a breakthrough commonly perceived to mark the beginning of synthetic organic chemistry. The primary goal of Harting and Rainey’s synthetic morphology was to explain...
متن کاملAntibacterial surfaces developed from bio-inspired approaches.
Prevention of bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation on the surfaces of materials is a topic of major medical and societal importance. Various synthetic approaches based on immobilization or release of bactericidal substances such as metal derivatives, polyammonium salts and antibiotics were extensively explored to produce antibacterial coatings. Although providing encouraging results, these ...
متن کاملBio-inspired Design of Intelligent Materials
Several examples of sensors and actuators inherent in biological species are reviewed with emphasis on their mechanisms for a given set of stimuli. Examples include, action plants (Venus flytrap, Cucumber tendrils) and bamboo, and algae. Based on theses examples and their mechanisms, we designed artificial actuators, FGM piezo actuators and electroactive polymer actuators.
