Strain‐Programmable Luminescent Adhesive Patch With Tartrazine‐Mediated Optical Skin Clearing for Photochemical Tissue Bonding

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We propose a suture‐complementary approach that integrates optical skin clearing with a strain‐programmable luminescent adhesive patch. Hyaluronic acid promotes transdermal delivery of tartrazine to improve optical clearing and stabilizes its interaction with a photosensitizer. Optical clearing increases the penetration depth of visible light into skin,

REGENERATION OF THE CORNEA [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association, 1909
It has long been known that the epithelium of the cornea would regenerate itself after being destroyed intentionally or by accident. Haller 1 as early as 1763, in his "Elementary Physiology of the Human Body," asserts that regeneration of the cornea takes place, and even the oldest ophthalmologists 2 assume that regeneration of corneal tissue occurs ...
