Nanodiamond Particles: Properties and Perspectives for Bioapplications

TL;DR: This review critically examines the use of NDs for biomedical applications based on type (i.e., high-pressure high-temperature [HPHT], CVD diamond, detonation ND [DND]), post-synthesis processing and modifications, and resultant properties including bio-interfacing.

A review of tissue-engineered skin bioconstructs available for skin reconstruction

TL;DR: Those materials already commercially available for clinical use as well as to give a short insight to those under development are described to provide skin scientists/tissue engineers with the information required to move closer to achieving the ultimate goal of an off-the-shelf, complete full-thickness skin replacement.

Hydrolytic Degradation and Erosion of Polyester Biomaterials

TL;DR: Through better control of degradation behavior and correlation of in vitro, simulated degradation to that observed in vivo, the development of superior devices prepared with polyester biomaterials may be achieved.

Tailoring the mechanical properties of 3D-designed poly(glycerol sebacate) scaffolds for cartilage applications.

TL;DR: It is shown that the bulk modulus of poly(glycerol sebacate) (PGS) can be changed by varying molar ratios during prepolymer synthesis and by varying curing time, and that this relatively new biomedical material supports cartilaginous matrix production by chondrocytes in vitro.

Internal displacement and strain imaging using ultrasonic speckle tracking

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extended the ultrasound speckle tracking method to allow measurement of internal displacement and strain fields over a wide dynamic range of tissue motion, which should lead to enhanced contrast resolution in strain and elasticity images.

Optimal design and fabrication of scaffolds to mimic tissue properties and satisfy biological constraints.

TL;DR: An image-based homogenization optimization approach is demonstrated that can design scaffold microstructure, scaffold material and regenerate tissueMicrostructure to meet conflicting design requirements and ensure adequate cell/gene delivery can be introduced using a minimum porosity threshold.
