Self-Healing Hydrogels: The Next Paradigm Shift in Tissue Engineering?

TL;DR: The recent progress in the development of multifunctional and self‐healable hydrogels for various tissue engineering applications is discussed in detail and their potential applications within the rapidly expanding areas of bioelectronics, cyborganics, and soft robotics are highlighted.
Book ChapterDOI

The Chemistry of Keratins

TL;DR: The chapter reflects the emphasis on wool as a source of α-keratin and is largely confined to a description of progress in the study of this material.
Journal ArticleDOI

The mechanism and stability of thermal transitions in hair keratin

TL;DR: Differential scanning calcorimetry (DSC) has been applied to study the interactions between components of human hair keratin this article, and the following processes are apparent from the DSC: removal of loosely bound water (ca. 70°C), a transition in the amorphous phase (155°C) and melting/denaturation of the α-crystalline phase (233°C).
Journal ArticleDOI

Sulfhydryl groups and disulfide linkages in normal and pathological keratinization

TL;DR: This work has shown that when sections of the epidermis were stained with sodium nitroprusside, a histochemical sulfhydryl reagent, only the cells of the Malpighian layer stained, and this view was based largely on histochemical evidence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Energy transfer in conjugated proteins and nucleic acids

TL;DR: Efficiencies of energy transfer from the nucleic acid and protein moieties to dye in complexes with 1-dimethylaminonaphthalene-5-sulfonyl chloride were measured, indicating no transfer of energy from nucleic Acid to protein.
