Consumption of antibiotics at St Luke’s Hospital : a critical factor behind the local prevalence of antimicrobial resistance? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The intensity of antibiotic use in hospital settings is recognised as possibly the most important factor for the selection of antimicrobial resistance. Hospitals are therefore being encouraged to undertake surveillance and benchmarking of antimicrobial ...

Generalizing Gelatin Methacryloyl Granular Hydrogel Fabrication Using Stable Microgels with Predictable Stiffness

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) granular hydrogel scaffolds (GHS) are fabricated using a generalized two‐step photocrosslinking approach to yield stable (non‐dissolving) microgels suitable for in situ covalent assembly under physiological conditions. A phase diagram is developed to define the interplay between individual microgel stability and scaffold ...

Combination of Polydopamine and Plasma Oxidation to Increase Tissue Integration of Polyurethane‐Silicone Copolymers for Cardiovascular Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Plasma oxidation following polydopamine deposition can significantly reduce the surface hydrophobicity of polyurethane‐siloxanes without impacting surface roughness, thereby increasing fibroblast viability, adhesion, and extracellular matrix production and secretion.
