Biomimetics: Materials fabrication through biology [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999
Many multicellular organisms produce hard tissues such as bones, teeth, shells, skeletal units, and spicules (1). These hard tissues are biocomposites and incorporate both structural macromolecules (lipids, proteins, and polysaccharides) and minerals of, perhaps, 60 different kinds, including hydroxyapatite, calcium carbonate, and silica.

Prediction of Steam Burns Severity using Raman Spectroscopy on ex vivo Porcine Skin

Scientific Reports, 2018
Skin burns due to accidental exposure to hot steam have often been reported to be more severe than the ones occurring from dry heat. While skin burns due to flames or radiant heat have been thoroughly characterized, the mechanisms leading to steam burns ...

Biomimetic Materials Processing

Hyomen Kagaku, 2010
Living organisms produce a wide variety of materials at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Moreover, each produced material plays a key role in each function in biological systems. “Biomimetic materials processing (BMMP)” is defined as the design and synthesis of new functional materials by refining knowledge and understanding of related ...

Crowding for Confinement: Reversible Isomerization of First-Generation Donor-Acceptor Stenhouse Adduct Derivatives in Water Modulated by Thermoresponsive Dendritic Macromolecules

Molecules
Mimicking nature, the reversible isomerization of hydrophobic dyes in aqueous solutions is appealing for bio-applications. Here, we report on the reversible isomerization of first-generation solvatochromic donor-acceptor Stenhouse adducts (DASAs) in ...
