Cell-Based Strategies for Meniscus Tissue Engineering
Stem Cells International, 2016 Meniscus injuries remain a significant challenge due to the poor healing potential of the inner avascular zone. Following a series of studies and clinical trials, tissue engineering is considered a promising prospect for meniscus repair and regeneration.

The role of meniscal repair for prevention of early onset of osteoarthritis
Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2018 Background The meniscus plays an important role in the integrity of the knee joint. Therefore, meniscus tissue preserving techniques for the therapy of meniscus injuries seem to be reasonable. One of the important questions is whether meniscal repair can

Cracked Metal–Phenolic Networks with Durable Confinement Capillarity for Enhanced Solar Desalination
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Nature‐inspired cracks are introduced into photothermal metal–phenolic networks (C‐MPNs). These crack patterns can be controlled to optimize water flow, enabling confinement capillarity to enhance the evaporation rate while preventing salt fouling. The cracks also serve as a buffer zone to significantly enhance the stability of the C‐MPNs, overcoming ...

Heating Simulation of Film Heaters Fabricated by EHD Inkjet Printing for Satellite Applications
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.New processes utilizing next‐generation printing technology are proposed to manufacture film heaters for satellite applications. In addition, the material properties of composite inks produced for application to this printing technology are derived. Film heaters are manufactured using the inks produced in this way, and heater verification is performed ...

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2017 Background Discoid medial meniscus is an extremely rare abnormality of the knee. During arthroscopic meniscectomy for symptomatic discoid medial meniscus, it is difficult to remove the posterior portion of the meniscus because of the confined working ...

Experimental Study of Gas Microbubbles on Oil‐Infused Wrinkled Surfaces
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Microbubbles are observed on both superhydrophobic (SHS) and lubricant‐infused surfaces (LIS) immersed to gassed water. The bubbles on LIS are stabilized by the lubricant cloaking layer, while bubbles on SHS shrink vertically over the same time frame.

Process and apparatus for growing a crystal ribbon [PDF]
, 1984 A process and apparatus is disclosed for growing a crystal ribbon of a substance of theoretically infinite length from a melt of the substance. A pair of fixedly positioned edge defining members are partially submerged into the melt so as to break the ...

Control and ultrasonic actuation of a gas-liquid interface in a microfluidic chip
, 2009 This article describes the design and manufacturing of a microfluidic chip, allowing for the actuation of a gas-liquid interface and of the neighboring fluid. A first way to control the interface motion is to apply a pressure difference across it.
