Ultraviolet-induced Surface Grafting of Octafluoropentyl Methacrylate on Polyether Ether Ketone for Inducing Antibiofilm Properties [PDF]

, 2017
Since octafluoropentyl methacrylate is an antifouling polymer, surface modification of polyether ether ketone with octafluoropentyl methacrylate is a practical approach to obtaining anti-biofilm biocompatible devices.

A simplified approach to quantitative coded aperture X-ray phase imaging [PDF]

, 2013
We recently demonstrated how quantitative X-ray phase contrast imaging may be performed with laboratory sources using the coded aperture technique. This technique required the knowledge of system parameters such as, for example, the source focal spot ...

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) in Dentistry

JOURNAL OF CLINICAL AND DIAGNOSTIC RESEARCH, 2019
There has been a constant research in identifying ideal restorative materials to replace lost dentofacial structures. Material such as wood, shell, ivory, rubbers to metals and plastics have been tried in the past. Advancements in dental materials have given dentistry more promising materials, yet each material remains short of being the ideal one ...

Light‐Guided Molecular Patterning for High‐Throughput Single‐Molecule Mechanical Characterization

Small, EarlyView.
A light‐guided molecular patterning method is presented for high‐throughput single‐molecule characterization. The approach enables scalable and accessible molecular patterning without specialized lithography equipment. Patterned surfaces are compatible with downstream biophysical assays, demonstrated by magnetic tweezers and flow‐based single‐molecule ...

Hydraulic In Vitro Characterization of MR‐Conditional Blood Pumps

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Cardiac surgery in neonates requires close placement of cardiopulmonary bypass machines due to limited blood volume, complicating MR compatibility. This study introduces three MR‐conditional blood pump prototypes. None interfered with MRI imaging, though RF‐related sensor effects remain untested.
