This paper proposes the fabrication process of first fully 3D-printed ceramic core structures for portable solar desalination devices optimized to tackle water scarcity from an energy and sustainability perspective. Robocasting, a 3D printing technique, is utilized fabricate structure integrated absorber/thermal insulator/water transporter based on two-layered modified graphene silica (MG@Silica) porous structure. Robocasting has demonstrated its flexibility in tailoring structural designs,...
Chondroitin sulfate (CS), a glycosaminoglycan of native cartilage, has shown its potential in promoting chondrogenesis mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), whereas the effect matrix stiffness CS-containing 3D environment on is still poorly understood. Herein, this study aimed at assessing CS concentration and hydrogels MSCs. Hydrogels composed 6% (w/v) gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) three concentrations, i.e., 4%, 6%, or 10% (w/v), methacrylated chondroitin (CSMA) were prepared. The each composition...
Present day strategies for delivery of wireless photodynamic therapy (PDT) to deep-seated targets are limited by the inadequacy irradiance and insufficient therapeutic depth. Here we report design preclinical validation a flexible upconversion nanoparticle (UCNP) implant (SIRIUS) that is capable large field, high intensity illumination PDT tumors. The achieves this incorporating submicrometer core–shell–shell NaYF4 UCNPs into its design, which significantly enhances efficiency mitigates...
In recent years, silk fibroin (SF) has been incorporated with low crystallinity nanohydroxyapatite (nHA) as a scaffold for various tissue regeneration applications due to the mechanical strength of SF and osteoconductive properties nHA. However, currently, there is lack understanding immune response toward degradation products nHA composite after implantation. It known that particulate fragments from biomaterial can trigger an response. As made degradable materials, may contribute...
