Biological scaffolds used in tissue engineering are incorporated in vivo by a process of cellular in-growth, followed by host-mediated degradation and replacement of these scaffolds, in which phagocytic cells from the monocyte/macrophage cell lineage play a key role. The chemical degradation of scaffolds with collagenases is well established, but to date this has not been correlated with an in ...

in this study, tio2 and zno nanofilms were prepared by sol-gel spin-coating method. nanofilms were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), energy dispersive analysis of      x-ray (edx), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (fe-esm). structural and morphological properties of nanofilms were investigated. the average crystalline size of tio2 and zn...

the main objective of the present work was to synthesis polyamide 6 through anionic polymerization of ε-caprolactam in an internal mixer. the reaction time and the rheological properties of samples during the polymerization were studied. the samples were characterized by thermo gravimetry analysis (tga), differential scanning calorimeter (dsc) and ft-ir spectrometer. the melt flow behavior and ...

Carbon nanotube-In2O3 nanocomposites were synthesized by sol-gel method with the help of ultrasonic radiation. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffractometer, transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectrometer. The UV absorbing properties were detected by the UV spectrophotometer. Photo degradation of methylene blue in aqueous solution was investigated by using CNT/In2O...
