Bacterial infections are a serious healthcare complication in orthopedic and trauma surgery worldwide. Compared to systemic, local antibiotic prophylaxis has been shown provide higher dose bioavailability at the bone site with minimum toxic effects. However, there still not enough biomaterial combinations available for personalized implant sizes patients. The aim of this study was develop fixation plate coating made composite poly-ε-caprolactone, hydroxyapatite halloysite nanotubes loaded...
This study explores the realm of personalized medicine by investigating utilization 3D-printed dosage forms, specifically focusing on patient-specific enteric capsules designed for modified release ketoprofen, serving as a model drug. The research investigates two distinct scenarios: modification drug from crafted hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate:polyethylene glycol (HPMCP:PEG) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), tailored pH sensitivity delayed modes, respectively. Additionally, novel...
Abstract Biomaterial-associated infections are a major healthcare challenge as they responsible for high disease burden in critically ill patients. In this study, we have developed drug-eluting antibacterial catheters to prevent catheter-related infections. Niclosamide (NIC), originally an antiparasitic drug, was incorporated into the polymeric matrix of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) via solvent casting, and were fabricated using hot-melt extrusion technology. The mechanical...
Additive manufacturing technologies have been widely used in the medical field. More specifically, fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D-printing technology has thoroughly investigated to produce drug delivery systems. Recently, few researchers explored possibility of directly 3D printing such systems without need for producing a which is usually feedstock material printer. This was possible via direct feeding mixture consisting carrier polymer and required drug. However, as this approach...
Additive manufacturing is widely used to produce highly complex structures. Moreover, this technology has proven its superiority in producing tools which can be different applications. We designed and produced an extrusion nozzle that allowed us hot melt extrude drug-loaded tubes. The tubes were essential part of a new mouse ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) model. Ciprofloxacin (CPX) was selected for expected activity against the pathogen Staphylococcus aureus ease incorporation into...
Additive Manufacturing of scaffolds with controlled porosity has demonstrated its value in many fields such as tissue regeneration and filtration applications. However, there is a scarcity reports investigating the manufacturing hollow fibers. Mainly, this was due to lack proper tools (extrusion nozzles) that enable production structures. In study, methodology for designing nozzle can be fitted onto fused filament fabrication 3D printer proposed. Titanium laser powder bed fusion technology,...
Abstract Software simulation programs and virtual reality (VR) have become powerful tools for several educational purposes, recently, they were used in a wide range of applications. In cases inaccessibility to labs, workshops, or industries, as happened before the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, these could be effectively integrated with practical lab experiments. this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) VR module utilized simulate heat transfer by conduction through various...
Laser wire-feed metal additive manufacturing (LWAM) is an innovative technology that shows many advantages compared with traditional approaches. Despite these advantages, its industrial adoption limited by complex parameter management and inconsistent process quality. To address issues improve geometric accuracy, this study explores how parameters influence bead geometry. We conducted a varying laser power, wire feed rate, traverse speed, welding angle. Using full factorial design central...
Abstract Biomaterial-associated infections are a major healthcare challenge as they responsible for high disease burden in critically ill patients. In this study, we have developed drug-eluting antibacterial catheters to prevent catheter-related infections. Niclosamide (NIC), originally well-studied antiparasitic drug, was incorporated into the polymeric matrix of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) via solvent casting, and were fabricated using hot-melt extrusion technology. The mechanical...
