Electrospun nanofibers for regenerative medicine.

TL;DR: This Progress Report reviews recent progress in applying electrospun nanofibers to the emerging field of regenerative medicine and highlights applications of the nanofiber‐based scaffolds in four areas of regeneratives medicine that involve nerves, dural tissues, tendons, and the tendon‐to‐bone insertion site.
Journal ArticleDOI

Controlling the Thickness of the Surface Oxide Layer on Cu Nanoparticles for the Fabrication of Conductive Structures by Ink‐Jet Printing

TL;DR: In this paper, the surface oxide layer on Cu nanoparticles synthesized in ambient atmosphere was minimized by adjusting the molecular weight of poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) capping molecules, as confirmed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrathin gold nanowires can be obtained by reducing polymeric strands of oleylamine-AuCl complexes formed via aurophilic interaction.

TL;DR: This Communication describes a facile route to the preparation of ultrathin gold nanowires using linear chains formed from [(oleylamine)AuCl] complex via aurophilic interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single-Crystal Nanowires of Platinum Can Be Synthesized by Controlling the Reaction Rate of a Polyol Process

TL;DR: Platinum nanowires of approximately 100 nm in length and approximately 5 nm in diameter have been synthesized by reducing H(2)PtCl(6) with ethylene glycol in the presence of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) and a trace amount of Fe(3+) or Fe(2+).
Journal ArticleDOI

Controlling cell attachment on contoured surfaces with self-assembled monolayers of alkanethiolates on gold

TL;DR: The method combines optically transparent contoured surfaces with self-assembled monolayers of alkanethiolates on gold to control interfacial characteristics; these tailored interfaces, in turn, control the adsorption of proteins and the attachment of cells.
