Biofunctional materials for directing vascular development.
Engineered tissue constructs are inherently limited by their lack of microvascularization. Evidence suggests that combining a scaffold material with cells and their cell-secreted signals instigates tubule formation, and various strategies can be employed to tailor the vascular response. This review focuses on rationally designed materials capable of supporting functional neovessel formation and...
متن کاملNano-coating Protection of Medical Devices
Consumer and industrial products are manufactured from a range of materials that are selected for specific bulk properties, cost and/or ‘look and feel’. However, many materials chosen in this way do not display the optimum surface properties. This presents an opportunity for surface modifications to apply desirable properties such as fire retardancy, anti-microbial, protein resistance and, wate...
متن کاملNano Characterization of Materials
Material and device characterization is challenged by continuously decreasing device dimensions placing significant demands on characterization instruments and measurement interpretation. The trend in many techniques is clearly toward characterization of smaller dimensions. Among the myriad of characterization techniques in use today, I discuss recent advances in probe microscopy, interferometr...
متن کاملBiofunctional Sr- and Si-loaded titania nanotube coating of Ti surfaces by anodization-hydrothermal process
Background Two frequent problems associated with titanium (Ti) surfaces of bone/dental implants are their corrosion and lack of native tissue integration. Methods Here, we present an anodization-hydrothermal method for coating Ti surfaces with a layer of silicon (Si)- and strontium (Sr)-loaded titania nanotubes (TNs). The Ti surfaces coated with such a layer (Si-Sr-TNs) were characterized wit...
