Development of a Synthetic Hydrogel to Foster Microvascularization of an Endometriosis Microphysiological System

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ascent of novel alternative methods in drug development spotlights the dual needs for improved biological fidelity to in vivo, along with reproducibility, especially in regulatory applications. The need for pre‐clinical models of patient‐derived endometriosis lesions motivates the development of a vascularizable, completely synthetic ...

3D Soft Hydrogels Induce Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells “Deep” Quiescence

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Three‐dimensional soft hydrogels mimicking the bone marrow niche induce deep quiescence in human mesenchymal stem cells. Unlike 2D culture, 3D matrices halt proliferation, regulate cell‐cycle and quiescence markers, and downregulate mTORC1 signaling, preserving stem cell phenotype and therapeutic potential ex vivo.

Charcoal kilns as a source of data on the past iron industry (an example from the River Czarna valley, Central Poland)

Environmental & Socio-economic Studies, 2017
Charcoal was the primary fuel used for iron smelting and processing until the end of the 19th century. It was produced through burning piles of wood called charcoal kilns.

Pore Structural Analysis of Charcoals by Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry

TANSO, 1996
Pore volume and macropore-size distribution of charcoal produced from the wood of a wide variety of trees were measured by mercury intrusion porosimetry and the following results were obtained.The shape of the distribution curve was remarkably dependent on wood type.
