Development of a static bioactive stent prototype and dynamic aneurysm-on-a-chip(TM) model for the treatment of aneurysms
… in a microfluidic environment. Therefore, biocompatability data was collected against PDMS, bacterial nanocellulose (BNC), and magnetic bacterial nanocellulose (MBNC). Preliminary static bioactive stents were synthesized whereby BNC was grown to cover standard nitinol stents. In an offshoot …

Biodegradable polymers for the sustained release of antisense nucleic acids
… and polyhydroxyvalerate were used due to their biocompatability and non toxic degradation products. Release profiles of antisense nucleic acids from films over 28 days was biphasic, characterised by an initial burst release during the first 48 hours followed by a more sustained release. Release …

Fabrication and Testing of A Middle-Ear Implanted Microphone
… umbo. Particular consideration is paid to the biocompatability of the microphone and its long-term durability in the body. The work discusses biocompatible materials, methods of encapsulation, and techniques for testing device robustness. The UmboMic is a piezoelectric displacement sensor that …

Biocompatibility and Bioactivity of Calcium Silicate-based Dental Bioceramics
Tricalcium silicate dental bioceramics are bioactive ceramics. They are used to repair and treat iatrogenic, and pathological communications between the oral environment and mesenchymal tissue through tooth structure, or as a retrograde root filling after root resection. They are placed in direct …
