Shape memory properties provide a very attractive insight into materials science, opening unexplored horizons and giving access to unconventional functions in every material class (metals, polymers, ceramics). In this regard, the biomedical field, forever search of that display able satisfy severe specifications required by their implantation, is now showing great interest shape materials, whose mechanical make them extremely for many applications. However, biocompatibility, particularly...
Significance In the past decade, countless studies have been performed to control mechanical and corrosion property of magnesium-based alloy, which degrades in physiological environment, overcome flaws inert implant materials shift paradigm conventional bone fixation devices. Controlled degradation Mg-5wt%Ca-1wt%Zn alloy results formation biomimicking calcification matrix at degrading interface initiate process. This process facilitates early healing allows complete replacement biodegradable...
During the last decade, translational research on biodegradable metallic materials has shown feasibility of these novel for use in fields cardiology and orthopedics. Implants prepared with metals are significantly stronger than their polymer counterparts, there is now convincing evidence demonstrating that fully biodegrade vivo, thus reducing need secondary surgery. Clinical trials such show significant potential, prospect a paradigm shift way musculoskeletal cardiovascular conditions...
Abstract Designing materials having suitable mechanical properties and targeted degradation behavior is the key for development of biodegradable medical applications, including stents. A series Fe–Mn alloys was developed with objective to obtain similar those stainless steel 316L more suited than pure iron. Four Mn content ranging between 20 35 wt % were compared in this study. Their microstructure, properties, magnetic as well carefully investigated. Results show that their microstructure...
AbstractAbstractAn Fe–35 wt-%Mn alloy, aimed to be used as a metallic degradable biomaterial for stent applications, was prepared via powder metallurgy route. The effects of processing conditions on the microstructure, mechanical properties, magnetic susceptibility and corrosion behaviour were investigated results compared those SS316L gold standard applications. Fe35Mn alloy found essentially austenitic with fine MnO particles aligned along rolling direction. is ductile strength approaching...
Collagen gels have been widely studied for applications in tissue engineering because of their biological implications. Considering use as scaffolds vascular engineering, the main limitation has always related to low mechanical properties. During process vitro self-assembly, which leads collagen gelation, size fibrils, chemical interactions, well resulting microstructure are regulated by three experimental conditions: pH, ionic strength and temperature. In this work, these parameters were...
Huntington disease (HD) is caused by a genetically encoded pathological protein (mutant huntingtin [mHtt]), which thought to exert its effects in cell-autonomous manner. Here, we tested the hypothesis that mHtt capable of spreading within cerebral tissue examining unrelated fetal neural allografts brains patients with advancing HD.The presence aggregates grafted was confirmed using 3 different types microscopy (bright-field, fluorescence, and electron), 2 additional techniques consisting...
