The development of biomaterials for myocardial tissue engineering requires a careful assessment their performance with regards to functionality and biocompatibility, including the immune response. Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), poly(e-caprolactone) (PCL), silk, poly-lactic acid (PLA), polyamide (PA) scaffolds were generated by electrospinning, cell compatibility in vitro, response cardiac function vitro vivo compared noncrosslinked collagen membrane (Col) control material. Results showed...
Human dermo-epidermal skin equivalents (DE) comprising in vitro expanded autologous keratinocytes and fibroblasts are a good option for massive burn treatment. However, the lengthy expansion time required to obtain sufficient surface cover an extensive together with challenging surgical procedure limits their clinical use. The integration of DE biodegradable scaffolds has been proposed effort enhance mechanical properties. Here, it is shown that poly(hydroxybutyrate) electrospun (PHB)...
Acoustic absorbing materials are applied to reduce noise levels in a room. They also used adjust the reverberation time an acoustic enclosure use for which it´s designed. There multi-purpose rooms conferences, concerts, cinemas, etc. In this case, absorbent should be changed according use. Curtains can easy way modify acoustics of room based on usage. This paper presents study absorption different curtains under actual placement. The was performed reverberant chamber. It takes into account...
The influence of solution composition is directly related to the properties polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibers. Electrospinning a viable technique develop PVA presence crosslinking agent such as glyoxal can produce variations not only in anti-water solubility effect, but also morphology electrodeposited fibers. objective this study was characterize on Thus, we studied fiber dimensions, weight deposited fibers, and crystallinity. relation between those nanofiber web (color, opacity,...
In recent years, the electrospinning process has become one of most interesting processes to obtain nanofiber webs with properties for uses in a wide variety industrial sectors such as filtration, chemical barriers, medical devices, etc., consequence relatively high surface-to-volume ratio. Among polymers, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) offers good advantages since it is water-soluble and this fact enables easy processing by electrospinning. There are many variables parameters be considered order...
We present the successful growth of few-layer graphene on top AlN-based solidly mounted resonators (SMR) using a low-temperature chemical vapour deposition (CVD) process assisted by Ni catalysts, and its effective bio-functionalization with antibodies. The SMRs are manufactured fully insulating AlN/SiO2 acoustic mirrors able to withstand temperatures reached during CVD (up 650 °C). active AlN films, purposely grown c-axis tilted, effectively excite shear modes displaying excellent in-liquid...
We present the successful integration of graphene on top AlN-based solidly mounted resonators (SMRs), using a low temperature CVD process and Ni layers as catalyst. develop protocol to functionalize surface that starts with damage O2 radical plasma treatment devices introduces controlled density defects graphene. Then, EDC/NHS chemistry is used covalently bond streptavidin molecules sensors. Finally, functionalised biosensors are assessed by analysing their response biotinylated antibodies.
In this work, we grow different types of carbon nanotube (CNT) forests directly on AlN-based electroacoustic biosensors and study their functionalization efficiency. CNTs are used to increase the effective surface area sensor, pursuing a better sensitivity, without increasing sensor capacitance. Here use general method for CNT bio-functionalization with specific receptors targeted species. First, make them hydrophilic. Next, cover alternating polymers. Finally, incubate in an...
