Bioresorbable and Wireless Rechargeable Implanted Na‐ion Battery for Temporary Medical Devices

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An all‐solid‐state bioresorbable Na‐ion battery is developed, composed entirely of bio‐eliminable materials. In vivo and ex vivo tests confirmed harmless disintegration of this implanted battery. Lifetime of the implanted battery can be precisely controlled by adjusting the dissolvable encapsulation layer's thickness.

Testing Method of Stent’s Radial Force [PDF]

, 2008
In case of coronary arteriosclerosis and heart attack balloon-expandable stents are used. These balloon crimped implants are placed to the occluded vessel part and the balloons are pumped with big pressure (4-20 bar).

Design and testing of hydrophobic core/hydrophilic shell nano/micro particles for drug-eluting stent coating [PDF]

, 2018
In this study, we designed a novel drug-eluting coating for vascular implants consisting of a core coating of the anti-proliferative drug docetaxel (DTX) and a shell coating of the platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor monoclonal antibody SZ-21.

Micro-invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS): a review of surgical procedures using stents

Clinical Ophthalmology, 2017
Over the last decade several novel surgical treatment options and devices for glaucoma have been developed. All these developments aim to cause as little trauma as possible to the eye, to safely, effectively, and sustainably reduce intraocular pressure ...

Ultra‐Effective Light‐Activated Antibacterial Activity via Carboxyl Functionalized Graphene Quantum Dots and Films

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Carboxyl‐functionalized graphene quantum dots (cGQDs) exhibit high singlet oxygen quantum yield due to strong spin–orbit coupling. cGQDs achieve minimum bactericidal concentration of only 0.4 µg mL−1 against S. aureus under low‐intensity illumination.

Extracellular Matrix Targeted MRI Probes

Analysis &Sensing, Volume 3, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Gadolinium based MRI probes targeted to ECM components, either proteins or enzymes, hold promise for accurate molecular characterization and staging of fibrotic diseases in vivo. Non‐covalent binding probes (1), reactive probes (2), and enzyme‐responsive probes (3) are discussed.

Examination of the coatings of coronary stents [PDF]

, 2006
In our study the main properties of coated coronary stents are shown, such as foreshortening, recoil, surface features and failures and the expansion properties. The types and the effects of active and passive coatings are introduced.

Biocompatibility of Water‐Dispersible Pristine Graphene and Graphene Oxide Using a Close‐to‐Human Animal Model: A Pilot Study on Swine

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene‐based materials are attracting considerable interest for biomedical applications. Analysis of their biocompatibility is required before their clinical translation, and swine represents an excellent close‐to‐human model. This study evaluates the toxicological and immunological impact of pristine graphene and graphene oxide through a compendium ...
