Antimicrobial Titanium–Copper Alloys: The Role of Microstructure in Arc‐Melted Compositions
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Copper‐containing titanium alloys show promise in combating orthopedic implant infections. This study explores the influence of heat treatment on Ti‐11.5Cu and Ti‐33Cu alloys, revealing that larger Ti2Cu precipitates (≈5 μm) enhance antimicrobial efficacy through increased surface contact. Results suggest contact sterilization is the primary mechanism,

3D Bioprinting of Thick Adipose Tissues with Integrated Vascular Hierarchies
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 18, 2025.An advanced 3D bioprinting technique is used here to create thick adipose tissues with a central, vessel and extensive branching. The construct is made using alginate, gelatin and collagen‐based bioinks. Flow through the complex vessel network is demonstrated as well as its successful integration with a femoral artery following implantation in a rat ...
