HARNESSING PLANT BIOMASS FOR BIOFUELS AND BIOMATERIALS Terpenoid biomaterials
Terpenoids (isoprenoids) encompass more than 40 000 structures and form the largest class of all known plant metabolites. Some terpenoids have well-characterized physiological functions that are common to most plant species. In addition, many of the structurally diverse plant terpenoids may function in taxonomically more discrete, specialized interactions with other organisms. Historically, spe...
متن کاملTerpenoid metabolism.
The terpenoids constitute the largest family of natural products; over 22,000 individual compounds of this class have been described (Connolly and Hill, 1991), and the number of defined structures has doubled every decade since the 1970s (Devon and Scott, 1972; Glasby, 1982). The terpenoids play diverse functional roles in plants as hormones (gibberellins, abscisic acid), photosynthetic pigment...
متن کاملNanosized biomaterials for regenerative medicine
This review discusses recent developments in the field of nanosized biomaterials and their use in tissue regeneration approaches. The aim is to provide an overview of the research focused on nanoparticle-based strategies to stimulate regeneration. In particular, nanoparticles improve the regenerative capabilities of biomaterials offering ways to control surface and mechanical properties. Moreov...
متن کاملBiomaterials for fabrication of dental crowns
Biocompatible materials used for the fabrication of dental crowns were studied. Patients were treated with Gold, Porcelain and Zirconia crowns. Dental crowns were selected according to patient’s clinical status and needs. We found that Gold crowns had low patient acceptance because of poor aesthetics and high cost. Gold crowns could not be used opposite to amalgam restorations for the fear of g...
