Biologically Active Implants Prevent Mortality in a Mouse Sepsis Model

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A modular, triple‐action titanium implant is developed to prevent implant‐associated infections by repelling bacteria, killing pathogens, and enhancing tissue integration. Coatings with phage cocktails targeting P. aeruginosa and S. aureus show significant bacterial reduction and improved survival in a mouse sepsis model.

Synthetic Hydrogels Incorporating Hydrolytic/Nonhydrolytic Macromer Ratios Exhibit Improved Tunability of In Vivo Degradation and Immune Responses

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A synthetic 4‐arm maleimide‐terminated poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG‐4MAL) hydrogel system that combines hydrolytic ester‐linked macromer (PEG‐4eMAL) with nondegradable amide‐linked macromer (PEG‐4aMAL) in various stoichiometric ratios to tune the degradability rate. The macromers are crosslinked with dithiothreitol via thiol‐maleimide click reaction. The

Influence of Dental Implant Surface Modifications on Osseointegration and Biofilm Attachment

Coatings, 2022
Dental implants have been widely applied in partially and fully edentulous patients and have shown predictable clinical outcomes, but there are still many cases of implant failures, such as osseointegration failure and peri-implant inflammation.
