The field of biomaterials is undergoing a transformative shift, driven by the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. As the demand for advanced materials with tailored properties continues to grow in applications ranging from tissue engineering to medical devices, researchers are increasingly turning to the power of AI to accelerate biomaterials development and optimization. ...
Many types of nanoparticles have been developed, such as lipid-based carriers, polymeric nanostructures (including polymer-drug conjugates, block copolymer micelles, and nanogels), and inorganic nanoparticles. ...
A new type of polymer designed by MIT chemists incorporates a special monomer (yellow) that helps the polymers to break down more easily under certain conditions. ...
These novel process had not yet been demonstrated at the pilot plant scale when the company started working with POS. Today, TephaFLEX polymer is the first of the company’s PHA materials to be used in FDA-cleared medical devices. ...
We studied the preparation of polymeric membranes formed of solutions of poly–3–hydroxybutyrate (PHB) and chitosan. PHB–chitosan biomaterials from these solutions may form various structural types, which determine the biodegradation time, the adsorption capacity, and the kinetics of the release of medicinal compounds from polymeric matrices. ...
Interfacial interactions between the components in these composite biomaterials affect the overall mechanical response. Here, the role of interfacial interactions on the load deformation behaviour of soft phase (polymer) have been analysed using constant velocity Steered Molecular Dynamics (v-SMD). From v-SMD simulations, it has been observed that the stiffness ...
Polypyrrole (PPy) is a conducting polymer with emerging applications in biomedical engineering. We report on the synthesis and properties of PPy incorporating biomolecules using AC impedance spectroscopy. ...
