Super‐Resolution Ultrasound Based Cell Tracking With Polymeric Nanobubbles

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a super‐resolution ultrasound platform for tracking cells in vivo. Biocompatible polymeric nanobubbles are used as highly echogenic intracellular labels. Following the injection of cells and microbubbles, ultrasound localization microscopy (ULM) can dynamically match the microvascular architecture and individual cell trajectories ...

Development of Patient-Specific CT-FE Modelling of Bone Through Validation Using Porcine Femora [PDF]

, 2012
A&E statistics in the UK demonstrate that as high as 60% of bone fractures occur as a result of trips and falls. Subsequently, many studies have been undertaken to simulate the occurrence of hip fractures. Little simulation has been considered outside of

Vitamin B-12 deficiency stimulates osteoclastogenesis via increased homocysteine and methylmalonic acid [PDF]

, 2009
The risk of nutrient deficiencies increases with age in our modern Western society, and vitamin B(12) deficiency is especially prevalent in the elderly and causes increased homocysteine (Hcy) and methylmalonic acid (MMA) levels.

Double‐Sided Mechanical Interlocking Enables Soft‐Rigid Conductive Interfaces With a Record High Toughness for Flexible Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A double‐sided mechanical interlocking strategy is developed to create robust electrical contact between polymer electrode and metal interconnect. The fibrous structure enables formation of thread–hole adhesion, which only breaks under bulk failure and achieves a record high interfacial energy exceeding 730 J·m−2. This adhesion secures the integrity of

Experimental fracture resistance study for cracked bovine femur bone samples

Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2019
Crack growth and brittle fracture is one of the major failure modes in bone materials and therefore understanding the fracture behavior and affecting parameters on the crack growth resistance of bone is necessary for biomechanics researchers.

Engineered Heparinized GQDS/HPEI–Polyamide Membrane for Bilirubin Removal via One Step Anti Coagulation

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A multifunctional heparinized polyamide membrane embedded with graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and hyperbranched polyethyleneimine (HPEI) is engineered for efficient bilirubin removal via a one‐step anticoagulation–adsorption process. The membrane demonstrates enhanced hemocompatibility, prolonged clotting times, and high bilirubin adsorption capacity ...

Monitoring Techniques of Bone Fracture Healing Using External Fixators

Engineering Transactions, 2015
Long bone fractures can be healed using external fixators – devices that stiffly fix the fractured fragments, attached to the bone by pins parallel to the bone frame.
