Growth factor releasing core-shell polymeric scaffolds for tissue engineering applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Tissue engineering is the use of a combination of cells, biomaterials and appropriate signals to repair or improve the functions of damaged tissues. Our group is exploiting various approaches to effectively encapsulate ...
Synthesis, characterization, and antimicrobial properties of novel double layer nanocomposite electrospun fibers for wound dressing applications
(
Dove Press
, 2017 , Article)
Herein, novel hybrid nanomaterials were developed for wound dressing applications with antimicrobial properties. Electrospinning was used to fabricate a double layer nanocomposite nanofibrous mat consisting of an upper ...
CTGF Loaded Electrospun Dual Porous Core-Shell Membrane For Diabetic Wound Healing
(
Dove Medical Press Ltd.
, 2019 , Article)
Purpose: Impairment of wound healing is a major issue in type-2 diabetes that often causes chronic infections, eventually leading to limb and/or organ amputation. Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a signaling ...
Preparation, characterization, and in ovo vaccination of dextran-spermine nanoparticle DNA vaccine coexpressing the fusion and hemagglutinin genes against Newcastle disease
(
Dove Press
, 2016 , Article)
Plasmid DNA (pDNA)-based vaccines have emerged as effective subunit vaccines against viral and bacterial pathogens. In this study, a DNA vaccine, namely plasmid internal ribosome entry site-HN/F, was applied in ovo against ...
Pseudomonas aeruginosa: arsenal of resistance mechanisms, decades of changing resistance profiles, and future antimicrobial therapies.
(
Future Medicine
, 2015 , Article)
Antimicrobial resistance is one of the most serious public health issues facing humans since the discovery of antimicrobial agents. The frequent, prolonged, and uncontrolled use of antimicrobial agents are major factors ...
Review of recent research on biomedical applications of electrospun polymer nanofibers for improved wound healing
(
Future Medicine
, 2016 , Article)
Wound dressings play an important role in a patient’s recovery from health problems,
as unattended wounds could lead to serious complications such as infections or,
ultimately, even death. Therefore, wound dressings since ...
Cytotoxicity and physicochemical characterization of iron–manganese-doped sulfated zirconia nanoparticles
(
Dove Press
, 2015 , Article)
Iron–manganese-doped sulfated zirconia nanoparticles with both Lewis and Brønsted acidic sites were prepared by a hydrothermal impregnation method followed by calcination at 650°C for 5 hours, and their cytotoxicity ...
