The use of hyaluronic and aminocaproic acid in the treatment of alveolar osteitis [PDF]
Background/Aim. Alveolar osteitis (AO), also known as “dry socket”, is relatively common post-extraction complication. It probably occurs due to excessive fibrinolytic activity in the coagulum and is characterized by intense pain sensations.

The Immobilization of Hyaluronic Acid in 3D Hydrogel Scaffolds Modulates Macrophage Polarization
This study explores the use of collagen‐hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels for the 3D culture of macrophages, providing a useful tool for modelling macrophage behavior in tissues and diseases. It highlights how hydrogel composition, mechanical properties, and preparation methods influence macrophage behavior, revealing for the first time that HA's ...

Etiology of Delayed Inflammatory Reaction Induced by Hyaluronic Acid Filler
The etiology and pathophysiology of delayed inflammatory reactions caused by hyaluronic acid fillers have not yet been elucidated. Previous studies have suggested that the etiology can be attributed to the hyaluronic acid filler itself, patient's ...

Ultrastructure of a hyaluronic acid matrix [PDF]
Freeze-etch replicas of a hylauronic acid matrix were visualized by electron microscopy. In water a coarse branching fibrillar network of hyaluronic acid aggregates was seen. The high solvent permeability of this matrix suggests that the spaces observed are relatively devoid of unaggregated polymer.

Phosphorylation of Hyaluronic Acid
Chemical phosphorylation of hyaluronic acid (HA) remains an unresolved problem for the chemistry of this unique polysaccharide, since convenient phosphorylating reagents are not reactive enough to obtain HA phosphates (HA-P) with a satisfactory degree of esterification of hydroxyl groups. The synthesis of phosphates of low-molecular-weight (43 kDa) and

Nanogels for pharmaceutical and biomedical applications and their fabrication using 3D printing technologies [PDF]
Nanogels are hydrogels formed by connecting nanoscopic micelles dispersed in an aqueous medium, which give an opportunity for incorporating hydrophilic payloads to the exterior of the micellar networks and hydrophobic payloads in the core of the micelles.
