Journal ArticleDOI
Fabrication of scaffolds in tissue engineering: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, the differences among the properties of tissues, such as pore size and distribution, porosity, structure, and mechanical properties, are elucidated and critically reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enzymatic mineralization generates ultrastiff and tough hydrogels with tunable mechanics
TL;DR: The enzyme-induced formation of amorphous calcium phosphate nanostructures that are homogenously distributed within polymer hydrogels are reported that have fracture energies superior to that of most known water-swollen synthetic materials and are able to modulate their stiffness well beyond that of cartilage and skin.

Highly luminescent gels and mesogens based on elaborated borondipyrromethenes
TL;DR: Supramolecular gels and liquid-crystalline materials containing borondipyrromethene (F-Bodipy) are a new class of highly luminescent materials built by attachment of long-chain alkoxydiacylamido scaffoldings to boradiazaindacene templates.

TL;DR: In this work, a biodegradable and injectable in situ gel-forming controlled drug delivery system based on thermosensitive poly(epsilon-caprolactone)-poly(ethylene glycol)-Poly(ep silicon-caproactone) (PCEC) hydrogel was studied and showed that the model drugs could be released from the PCEC hydrogels system over a sustained period.

Solution Properties of Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)
M. Heskins,J. E. Guillet +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a lower critical solution temperature of poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide was found to be due to an entropy effect, which was attributed to the formation of nonpolar and intermolecular hydrogen bonds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymeric Systems for Controlled Drug Release
TL;DR: Kevin Shakesheff investigates new methods of engineering polymer surfaces and the application of these engineered materials in drug delivery and tissue engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alginate hydrogels as synthetic extracellular matrix materials
TL;DR: Alginate may prove to be an ideal material with which to confer specific cellular interactive properties, potentially allowing for the control of long-term gene expression of cells within these matrices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodegradable block copolymers as injectable drug-delivery systems
TL;DR: The synthesis of a thermosensitive, biodegradable hydrogel consisting of blocks of poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(L-lactic acid) and aqueous solutions of these copolymers exhibit temperature-dependent reversible gel–sol transitions.
