Physicochemical and Mechanical Characterization of Commercial Collagen‐Based Wound Dressings
Commercial collagen‐based wound dressings are systematically compared to reveal how porous architecture governs hydration‐driven swelling and mechanical adaptation. Distinct structure–function relationships are identified, showing that wet‐state elasticity and conformability emerge from material composition and processing rather than manufacturer ...

Abstract New data on the equine aortic valve obtained using advanced techniques is especially important given the greater availability of animal models for translational research. Here we characterized the morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve from 60 healthy hearts collected at equine abattoirs.

ABSTRACT This study addresses the influence of fibre architecture on the mechanical properties of vacuum‐infused glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites at elevated temperatures (ET). Laminates with three different fibre configurations—unidirectional (UD), bidirectional 0°/90° cross‐ply (BD), and ±45° off‐axis angle‐ply (OA) – were tested in ...
