Researchers built a CeOx/TiO2 metasurface coating on titanium abutments that heats under near-infrared light to kill bacteria while scavenging reactive oxygen species and promoting soft tissue sealing.
In experiments using animal models with femoral bone defects, the hydrogel was successfully injected, adhered accurately, and effectively delivered components essential for bone regeneration. Professor Cha commented, "The injectable hydrogel system for bone regeneration developed by our research team represents…
An editorial on a Frontiers Research Topic argues that smart biomaterials and additive manufacturing must be tied to measurable, reproducible functional validation. By placing functional validation and reproducibility alongside material novelty, the Research Topic aims to make next-generation smart, additively…
Indian researchers developed PVP-PEG-gelatin hydrogels that released L-theanine slowly over 48 hours, with nanoparticle encapsulation slowing release further while showing strong antioxidant activity in vitro.
A new review argues that the hydroxyapatite lattice itself, through substitution, crystallinity and solubility, can be engineered to control when and how fast bone implants release drugs.
Over time, scar tissue slows or stops implanted bioelectronics. But new interdisciplinary research could help pacemakers, sensors and other implantable devices keep people healthier for longer. In a paper published in Nature Materials, a group of researchers led by University…
Medical solutions provider STEMart has launched a range of gel imaging system solutions to support molecular biology research, electrophoresis analysis and laboratory documentation. A gel imaging system usually comprises a UV transmission lamp, a hood or darkroom to shield against…
A collagen-coated rapamycin liposome system preserved cartilage structure and showed no organ toxicity in a rat model of osteoarthritis. The compound dissolves poorly in water, circulates badly, and at systemic doses can suppress the immune system. Their findings, published in…
A new review argues that the hip's cotyloid fossa fat pad is a promising but still uncharacterized source of therapeutic stem cells, using the knee's well-studied infrapatellar fat pad as its benchmark. Subject of Research: Comparing the hip's cotyloid fossa…
Materials designed to work with the body: hydrogels, bioadhesives, scaffolds, smart and degradable biomaterials and wound dressings.
