Bio-inspired strategies for designing antifouling biomaterials [PDF]

open access: yesBiomaterials Research, 2016
Abstract Contamination of biomedical devices in a biological medium, biofouling, is a major cause of infection and is entirely avoidable. This mini-review will coherently present the broad range of antifouling strategies, germicidal, preventive and cleaning using one or more of biological, chemical and physical techniques.

Process Innovation through bio-inspired design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In process system engineering, we often adopt a constructivist approach to answer the question “How can we go from parts to a whole system?” To answer to this question we need to propose approach that, based on the knowledge of phenomena at small-scale, allows going up the different scales in order to design process but also to innovate thanks to the ...
