Background: Nanoparticles (NPs) have gained significance in medical fields due to their high surface-area-to-volume ratio. In this study, we synthesized NPs from a medicinally important plant – Plumbago zeylanica . Materials and methods: Aqueous root extract of P. (PZRE) was analyzed for the presence flavonoids, sugars, organic acids using high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC), gas chromatography-time flight-mass spectrometry (GC-TOF-MS), biochemical methods. The silver (AgNPs),...
Abstract Periodontal disease is a significant burden for oral health, causing progressive and irreversible damage to the support structure of tooth. This complex structure, periodontium, composed interconnected soft mineralised tissues, posing challenge regenerative approaches. Materials combining silicon lithium are widely studied in periodontal regeneration, as they stimulate bone repair via silicic acid release while providing stimuli through activation Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Yet,...
Porous silicon nanoneedles can interface with cells and tissues minimal perturbation for high-throughput intracellular delivery biosensing. Typically, nanoneedle devices are rigid, flat, opaque, which limits their use topical applications in the clinic. We have developed a robust, rapid, precise substrate transfer approach to incorporate within diverse substrates of arbitrary composition, flexibility, curvature, transparency, biodegradability. With this approach, we integrated on medically...
Additive manufacturing (AM) using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) enables the fabrication of intricate biomimetic structures, such as triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS), which hold significant potential for biomedical implants. However, fatigue performance these structures is often compromised by surface roughness and internal defects. In this work, Triply (TPMS) based lattices were fabricated LPBF process. Quasi‐static compression tests computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations...
Ferulic acid is a ubiquitous phytochemical that holds enormous therapeutic potential but has not gained much consideration in biomedical sector due to its less bioavailability, poor aqueous solubility and physiochemical instability. In present investigation, the shortcomings associated with agro-waste derived ferulic were addressed by encapsulating it electrospun nanofibrous matrix of poly (d,l-lactide-co-glycolide)/polyethylene oxide. Fluorescent microscopic analysis revealed predominantly...
Ferulic acid (FA) is a polyphenolic phytonutrient which possesses strong antiproliferative effect; however, it has limited therapeutic applications due to its physiochemical instability and low bioavailability at the tumor site. In present study, these shortcomings associated with FA were overcome by fabricating FA-encapsulated poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide)/polyethylene oxide (PLGA/PEO) blend nanofibers using electrospinning technique. FESEM fluorescence microscopic analysis imitates smooth...
