Zwitterionic Biomaterials

Chemical Reviews, 2022
The term "zwitterionic polymers" refers to polymers that bear a pair of oppositely charged groups in their repeating units. When these oppositely charged groups are equally distributed at the molecular level, the molecules exhibit an overall neutral charge with a strong hydration effect via ionic solvation.

Immunomodulatory biomaterials

International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 2008
Vaccination is one of the most successful medical interventions for the prevention of disease in the twentieth century. However, with the development of new and less reactogenic vaccine antigens, which take advantage of molecular recombinant technologies, comes the need for more effective adjuvants that will facilitate the induction of adaptive immune ...

Biomaterial surfaces

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research, 1987
The nature of a biomaterial surface governs the processes involved in biological response. Surface properties such as surface chemistry, surface energy, and morphology may be measured in order to understand the surface region of a biomaterial. In this article, we describe the surface characteristics of a few common biomaterials, review the techniques ...

Anti-inflammation biomaterial platforms for chronic wound healing.

Biomaterials Science, 2021
Nowadays, there has been an increase in the number of people with chronic wounds, which has resulted in serious health problems worldwide. The rate-limiting stage of chronic wound healing has been found to be the inflammation stage, and strategies for ...

Living Biomaterials

Accounts of Chemical Research, 2017
Convergent advances in the fields of synthetic chemistry, soft matter, molecular self-assembly, and the -omics era point to a new generation of synthetic biomaterials that are indistinguishable in form and function from biological matter. Such living biomaterials comprise a "Holy Grail" of the chemical sciences that will transform both modern medicine ...

Biomaterial Failure

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1992
One conclusion that might be drawn from a review of the role of biomaterial failure in total hip arthroplasty is that the fracture, wear, and corrosion of materials often serve as the primary causes of failure of hip replacements. It is not yet possible, however, to conclude the prevalence or time course of these failures.

Supramolecular biomaterials

Nature Materials, 2015
Polymers, ceramics and metals have historically dominated the application of materials in medicine. Yet rationally designed materials that exploit specific, directional, tunable and reversible non-covalent interactions offer unprecedented advantages: they enable modular and generalizable platforms with tunable mechanical, chemical and biological ...
