Long‐Term Hydrophilic, Anti‐Clotting, and Anti‐Fibrotic Dynamic Covalent Silicone‐Based Biomaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Dynamic covalent crosslinking of a Schiff‐base silicone elastomer with hydrazide‐functionalized polymers is demonstrated to improve the long‐term hydrophilicity as well as the anti‐fouling and anti‐clotting properties of PDMS implants. The hydrazone‐functionalized material prevents hydrophobic recovery, resists clotting, and significantly reduces ...

Electron-microscopic Findings of Elastic Fibers in Zebrafish Skin

open access: yes, 2009
Background: The zebrafish, Danio rerio, is a small bony fish that has genetic information and organ systems similar to those seen in human beings. The zebrafish has many advantages as an experimental animal model.

Immunoinflammatory Mechanisms and Biocompatibility of Bioactive Dental Biomaterials: From Fundamental Insights to Clinical Translation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Surface‐host dialogue at the implant interface governs biological fate and osseointegration. Surface physicochemical properties of titanium (Ti) dental implants, including microgrooves, nanopatterns, nanotopography, roughness, and wettability, modulate the initial adsorption of proteins and the formation of a dynamic biointerface.

An electron stain for elastic fibers using orcein.

open access: yes, 1977
Orcein was found to be useful as an electron-opaque stain for elastic fibers in epoxy-sections. Ultra-thin sections of aorta were treated with elastica stain containing 0.1-0.3% orcein and counterstained in uranyl acetate and lead citrate.
