Impact of Fiber Orientation in Electrospun PLA Scaffolds on Fluid Dynamics in a Custom Microfluidic Device

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Fiber orientation in electrospun scaffolds affects permeability and fluid dynamics in microfluidic devices. Combining experimental data with computational fluid dynamic simulations, we show that aligned fibers enhance flow uniformity, reduce pressure and shear stress variability.

Safety Evaluation of Repeated Application of Polymeric Microarray Patches in Miniature Pigs

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the safety of repeated application of three types of microarray patches (MAPs), hydrogelforming, dissolving, and implantable, over four weeks in miniature pigs. No adverse skin or systemic effects were observed, supporting the clinical potential of MAPs as safe and effective drug delivery platforms.

Human Skin Models in Biophotonics: Materials, Methods, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses how the optical properties of human skin can be replicated in human skin models. It describes the principles, materials, and techniques used to develop artificial skin for biophotonics research. Finally, the article highlights recent advances and shows how these models improve the study of light‐skin interactions without the need ...

Poly(hydroxy‐oxazolidone) Thermoplastic Elastomers for Safer, Greener and Customizable Blood‐Contacting Medical Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A poly(hydroxy‐oxazolidone) (PHOx) is synthesized from CO2‐based precursors, enabling the up‐cycling of this waste material. After synthesis, PHOx shows thermoplastic properties, and can therefore be processed by many temperature‐dependent techniques. PHOx is hemocompatible, anti‐adhesive, and biocompatible, which is demonstrated in vitro and in vivo ...
