Biomimetic Stratum Corneum Liposome Models: Lamellar Organization and Permeability Studies
Membranes, 2023 The stratum corneum (SC), the outer layer of the skin, plays a crucial role as a barrier protecting the underlying cells from external stress. The SC comprises three key components: ceramide (CER), free fatty acid (FFA), and cholesterol, along with small

Catechol‐Based Biomimetic Functional Materials [PDF]
Advanced Materials, 2012 AbstractCatechols are found in nature taking part in a remarkably broad scope of biochemical processes and functions. Though not exclusively, such versatility may be traced back to several properties uniquely found together in the o‐dihydroxyaryl chemical function; namely, its ability to establish reversible equilibria at moderate redox potentials and ...

Effect of pH and temperature on the morphology and phases of co-precipitated hydroxyapatite [PDF]
, 2012 This paper reports a high-yield process to fabricate biomimetic hydroxyapatite nano-particles or nano-plates. Hydroxyapatite is obtained by simultaneous dripping of calcium chloride and ammonium hydrogen phosphate solutions into a reaction vessel ...
