Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.The covalent binding of dexamethasone to the surface of polyimide represents the electrically inert part of implantable intraneural devices. This ensures a sustained release of the drug for 9 weeks. In vitro and in vivo tests confirm the reduction of the foreign body reactions and the improved biocompatibility of dexamethasone functionalized polyimide.

Amputation‐Sparing Treatment by Nature: “Surgical” Maggots Revisited [PDF]
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2002 Maggots were used as adjunct treatment for infected wounds that showed no response to the classical approach of wound debridement and antibiotic therapy. We summarize findings for 11 patients with necrotic wounds who received treatment with "surgical" maggots (100-2900 applied in 3-10 changes of dressing) for 11-34 days, which apparently aided in ...

Bleeding‐Mimetic Damage‐Detecting and Self‐Healing Modular Skin for Inflatable Structures
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A damage‐detecting and self‐healing system inspired by the human bleeding mechanism is developed for inflatable structures, using a liquid conductive elastomeric material enclosed in a small pouch. This material, composed of uncured elastomer, its curing agent, conductive particles, and a dispersant, solidifies only after being exposed to air and ...
