Development of a Novel Method for the Strengthening and Toughening of Irradiation-Sterilized Bone Allografts used in Orthopaedic Reconstructions
comments
Over 900,000 bone-grafting procedures are performed each year in the USA 1 . Human bone allografts are used in the orthopaedic reconstruction of skeletal defects resulting from traumatic injuries, diseases and revision arthroplasty however, bone allografts have insufficient mechanical properties 2 and graft fracture is a documented clinical failure mode 3 ...
The remarkable mechanical properties of bone are attributed to the hierarchical organization of microscopic structures made up of collagen and mineral spanning across the nano- to microscale 1 ...
Understanding cell behaviour at the material-host tissue interface is a fundamental prerequisite for designing the next generation of biomaterials capable of directing cellular events towards desired biological outcomes...
In tumor progression, the hypoxia-mediated epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition EMT works as an important survival pathway, where epithelial cells lose their polarized properties and acquire mesenchymal characteristics...
An ideal wound dressing should possesses good biocompatibility and proper porosity, as well as effective antibacterial property to accelerate wound healing...
