Flexible and highly interconnected, multi-scale patterned chitosan porous membrane produced in situ from mussel shell to accelerate wound healing comments

by Mengqiu (Malcolm) Xing Gurankit Singh
We report a mussel shell-derived membrane with a multiscale ordered structure for wound dressing. As an ideal biologically derived dressing, it should be non-toxic and non-allergenic with an appropriate pore size to remove excess exudates...

An innovative 3D cell culture kit for drug screening applications: “PP-3D-S” comments

by Mansoureh Mohseni Garakani
In the area of cancer research, a major issue with conventional 2D cell culture is that it cannot reproduce complex in vivo cell-extracellular matrix ECM interactions, nor those between cancer epithelial cells and stromal compartment, which play a crucial role in tumorigenesis and progression...

Injectable Macroporous Hydrogels using Perfluorcarbon Emulsions as Porogens comments

by Todd Hoare Samaneh Toufanian
Injectable hydrogels that can be delivered using needles offer particular advantages in biomedical applications given that these hydrogels do not require invasive surgical implantation, thereby reducing recovery time for patients, reducing costs, and in many cases enabling direct encapsulation, rather than post-encapsulation, of cells during the gel formation process 1 ...
