Hindered Transport in Composite Hydrogels
The ultimate goal of this research was to develop a greater understanding of the structural components needed to describe transport within the glomerular basement membrane (GBM). Specifically, dimensionless diffusive and convective hindrance factors were investigated by measuring macromolecular permeability through synthetic, two-fiber, agarose-dextran hydrogels at very small or very high Pe, r...
متن کاملComposite Hydrogels for Bone Regeneration
Over the past few decades, bone related disorders have constantly increased. Among all pathological conditions, osteoporosis is one of the most common and often leads to bone fractures. This is a massive burden and it affects an estimated 3 million people only in the UK. Furthermore, as the population ages, numbers are due to increase. In this context, novel biomaterials for bone fracture regen...
متن کاملGelatinepectin composite films from polyion-complex hydrogels
Preparation and properties of composite films from gelatin and low-methoxyl pectin from simultaneous reversible and permanent polyion-complex hydrogels are presented. Ionic interactions between positively charged gelatin and negatively charged pectin produce reversible physical hydrogels with homogeneous molecular arrangement that improve both mechanical and water resistance but do not alter th...
متن کاملHalogen bonds in biological molecules.
Short oxygen-halogen interactions have been known in organic chemistry since the 1950s and recently have been exploited in the design of supramolecular assemblies. The present survey of protein and nucleic acid structures reveals similar halogen bonds as potentially stabilizing inter- and intramolecular interactions that can affect ligand binding and molecular folding. A halogen bond in biomole...
متن کاملElectron tunneling in biological molecules*
Electron transfers in photosynthesis and respiration commonly occur between protein-bound prosthetic groups that are separated by large molecular distances (often greater than 10 AÊ ). Although the electron donors and acceptors are expected to be weakly coupled, the reactions are remarkably fast and proceed with high speci®city. Tunneling timetables based on analyses of Fe/Cu to Ru electron-tra...
