Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical characterization of collagen fibers and scaffolds for tissue engineering.
TL;DR: Mechanical properties of collagen as a scaffolding biomaterial for ligament replacements for tissue-engineered products must possess appropriate mechanical as well as biological/chemical properties should help enable the development of improved tissue analogues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of surface-tension-induced epithelial cell damage in a model of pulmonary airway reopening.
TL;DR: The hypotheses that mechanical stresses associated with airway reopening injure pulmonary epithelial cells and that pulmonary surfactant protects the epithelium from this injury are supported.
Book
An introduction to tissue-biomaterial interactions
TL;DR: In this paper, the Physiological Environment and the Immune System and Inflammation are discussed, as well as protein-surface interactions and coagulation of proteins and proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design and function of novel osteoblast-adhesive peptides for chemical modification of biomaterials
TL;DR: It is confirmed that osteoblast adhesion to substrates can be controlled selectively and significantly by immobilized peptides, and elucidates criteria and strategies for the design of proactive dental/orthopedic implant biomaterials.
