(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article Review)
Electrospinning has gained wide attention recently in biomedical applications. Electrospun biocompatible scaffolds are well-known for biomedical applications such as drug delivery, wound dressing, and tissue engineering ...
CTGF Loaded Electrospun Dual Porous Core-Shell Membrane For Diabetic Wound Healing
(
Dove Medical Press Ltd.
, 2019 , Article)
Purpose: Impairment of wound healing is a major issue in type-2 diabetes that often causes chronic infections, eventually leading to limb and/or organ amputation. Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a signaling ...
Optical fluorescent spider silk electrospun nanofibers with embedded cerium oxide nanoparticles
(
SPIE
, 2018 , Article)
The work demonstrates an electrospun nanocomposite of recombinant spider silk protein (rSSp) nanofibers with embedded cerium oxide (ceria) nanoparticles. RSSP (MaSp1) has been produced, extracted from goat milk, and ...

This paper describes the synthesis of grape cluster shaped nickel ferrite (NiFe 2 O 4 ) and cerium doped nickel ferrite (Ce-NiFe 2 O 4 ) nanoparticles by chemical co-precipitation and their addition to poly(vinylidene ...
Electrospun PET-PU scaffolds for vascular tissue engineering
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
The incidence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is projected to continuously increase in the coming decades, with a colossal associated cost of treatment. In the US alone, 83.6 million people are estimated to have one or ...
Yttrium oxide nanoparticle loaded scaffolds with enhanced cell adhesion and vascularization for tissue engineering applications
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
In situ tissue engineering is emerging as a novel approach in tissue engineering to repair damaged tissues by boosting the natural ability of the body to heal itself. This can be achieved by providing suitable signals and ...
