Journal ArticleDOI
Toxicity evaluation of PEDOT/biomolecular composites intended for neural communication electrodes
Maria Asplund,Elin Thaning,Johan Lundberg,Ann-Christin Sandberg-Nordqvist,B Kostyszyn,Olle Inganäs,H. von Holst,H. von Holst +7 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that PEDOT:heparin surfaces were non-cytotoxic and show no marked difference in immunological response in cortical tissue compared to pure platinum controls.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electroactive polymers for neural interfaces
TL;DR: The development of electroactive conjugated polymers, for the purpose of recording and eliciting signals in the neural systems in humans, can be used to fashion the interfaces between the two signallin...
Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence of traumatic peripheral nerve injuries and amputations in Sweden between 1998 and 2006.
TL;DR: Based on an analysis of incidence and care time, it is found that brachial plexus injuries and lower leg amputations should be the primary targets of new technologies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Actively controlled release of Dexamethasone from neural microelectrodes in a chronic in vivo study
Christian Boehler,Carolin Kleber,Nadja Martini,Yijing Xie,Ian Dryg,Thomas Stieglitz,Ulrich G. Hofmann,Maria Asplund +7 more
TL;DR: Investigation of whether controlled release of the anti-inflammatory drug Dexamethasone from flexible neural microelectrodes in the rat hippocampus has an impact on probe-tissue integration over 12 weeks of implantation revealed an overall low degree of inflammation around all flexible probes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-Term Stable Adhesion for Conducting Polymers in Biomedical Applications: IrOx and Nanostructured Platinum Solve the Chronic Challenge
TL;DR: The weakness of CP-based neural probes can ultimately be eliminated and true long-term stable use of PEDOT on neural probes will be possible in future electrode generations by introducing two novel adhesion improvement strategies that can easily be integrated with standard microelectrode fabrication processes.
