Bacterial Cellulose Nanofibers Grafted Poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) via Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization comments

by Yaser Dahman
Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization ATRP is significant method for synthesis of polymers with narrow polydispersity and is based on the reversible reaction of low oxidation- state metal complexes with an alkyl halide, generating radicals and the corresponding high-oxidation state metal complexes with a coordinated halide ligand...

Biomimetic Remineralization of Completely Demineralized Dentine Using Nanocomplexes of Carboxymethyl Chitosan/amorphous Calcium Phosphate comments

by Xu Zhang
Currently, it is still a tough task for dentists to remineralize dentine in deep caries. The aim of this study was to remineralize human completely demineralized dentine using nanocomplexes of carboxymethyl chitosan amorphous calcium phosphate CMC ACP based on mimicking the stabilizing effect of dentine matrix protein 1 DMP1 on ACP in the biomineralization of dentine...
