Characterization and evaluation of curcumin loaded guar gum/polyhydroxyalkanoates blend films for wound healing applications

TL;DR: Results of the in vivo wound healing study in an animal model demonstrates that the developed curcumin loaded guar gum/PHBV blend film shows markedly enhanced wound healing compared to the control one.
Journal ArticleDOI

3D printed hydroxyapatite composite scaffolds with enhanced mechanical properties

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the fabrication of hydroxyapatite composite scaffolds with macro porosity (∼600μm) by means of 3D printing techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feasibility, tailoring and properties of polyurethane/bioactive glass composite scaffolds for tissue engineering

TL;DR: It was found that the composite scaffolds were highly bioactive as after 7 days of soaking in SBF a HA layer grew on their surface and are promising candidates for tissue engineering applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanical characterization of injection-molded macro porous bioceramic bone scaffolds.

TL;DR: The sintering temperature effect of a cost-effective manufacturing process on the architecture and mechanical properties of a controlled macro porous bioceramic bone scaffold support the development of clinically successful biocheramic scaffolds that may stimulate bone regeneration and scaffold integration while providing structural integrity.
