  1. Investigation of Keratin and Keratin-Containing Composite Biomaterials: Applications in Peripheral Nerve Regeneration

    Keratins are a family of structural proteins that can be extracted from a variety of sources including wool, nails, skin, hooves, and hair. Keratin can be processed into different constructs such as coatings, scaffolds, and hydrogels, and has shown favorable results when placed in in vitro and in …
