Osteoblast proliferation and maturation on bioactive fiber-reinforced composite surface

Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2008
The objective of this study was to evaluate the proliferation and osteogenic potential of bone-marrow derived osteoblast-like cells on fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) substrates with and without bioactive glass surface modification. Three FRC materials were fabricated for the study: (a) grit-blasted FRC, (b) grit-blasted FRC with bidirectional net ...

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

Advanced 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,
