Structure-mechanics relationships of collagen fibrils in the Osteogenesis Imperfecta Mouse model [PDF]

, 2015
The collagen molecule, which is the building block of collagen fibrils, is a triple helix of two α1(I) chains and one α2(I) chain. However, in the severe mouse model of osteogenesis imperfecta (OIM), deletion of the COL1A2 gene results in the ...

Mechanism of Action of Nanosized Bamboo Shoot Dietary Fiber in Improving Whey Syneresis during Shelf Life of Yogurt [PDF]

Shipin Kexue
The effect of nanosized bamboo dietary fiber (NBDF) on whey syneresis in yogurt during shelf storage was studied. The milk wettability of micro- and nano-modified NBDF with different particle sizes was analyzed.

XTH acts at the microfibril-matrix interface during cell elongation [PDF]

, 2005
Sulphorhodamine-labelled oligosaccharides of xyloglucan are incorporated into the cell wall of Arabidopsis and tobacco roots, and of cultured Nicotiana tabacum cells by the transglucosylase (XET) action of XTHs.

Unidirectional Tape‐Based Composites from Hemp and Pineapple Leaf Fiber: Mechanical Performance in Conventional and Bio‐Based Matrices

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The study investigates novel semi‐finished products made of unidirectionally arranged hemp or pineapple leaf fiber‐reinforced composites produced from different matrices. The materials are analyzed in terms of their mechanical and interfacial properties and void content.

Folding of xylan onto cellulose fibrils in plant cell walls revealed by solid-state NMR

Nature Communications, 2016
The polysaccharide xylan binds to cellulose microfibrils in the plant cell wall, but the nature of this interaction remains unclear. Here Simmonset al.

Hierarchical nanomechanics of collagen microfibrils [PDF]

, 2010
Collagen constitutes one third of the human proteome, providing mechanical stability, elasticity and strength to connective tissues. Collagen is also the dominating material in the extracellular matrix (ECM) and is thus crucial for cell differentiation ...

Multiscale approach including microfibril scale to assess elastic constants of cortical bone based on neural network computation and homogenization method [PDF]

, 2013
The complexity and heterogeneity of bone tissue require a multiscale modelling to understand its mechanical behaviour and its remodelling mechanisms.

Tissue Engineered Human Elastic Cartilage From Primary Auricular Chondrocytes for Ear Reconstruction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Despite over three decades of research, no tissue‐engineered solution for auricular reconstruction in microtia patients has reached clinical translation. The key challenge lies in generating functional elastic cartilage ex vivo. Here, we integrate synergistic cell‐biomaterial strategies to engineer auricular grafts with mechanical and histological ...

Characterization of Structure and Morphology of Cellulose Lyocell Microfibers Extracted from PAN Matrix

Polysaccharides
Polymer matrices can be reinforced with cellulose fillers in a variety of geometric shapes. Depending on the morphology of the particles, the volume fraction of the composite additive may decrease, while the values of the elastic modulus may increase ...

Dissecting the molecular mechanism underlying the intimate relationship between cellulose microfibrils and cortical microtubules

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
A central question in plant cell development is how the cell wall determines directional cell expansion and therefore the final shape of the cell. As the major load-bearing component of the cell wall, cellulose microfibrils are laid down transversely to ...
