Biofabrication techniques have endeavored to improve the regeneration of the peripheral
nervous system (PNS), but nothing has surpassed the performance of current clinical …

The main functions of biological adhesives and sealants are to repair injured tissues,
reinforce surgical wounds, or even replace common suturing techniques. In general surgery …

Suturing is a time consuming task in ophthalmology and suture induced irritation and
redness are frequent problems. Postoperative wound infection and corneal graft rejection …

In tissue engineering techniques, three-dimensional scaffolds are needed to adjust and
guide cell growth and to allow tissue regeneration. The scaffold must be biocompatible …

Background Platelet concentrates have been popularly used in regenerative periodontal
therapy as they are autologous in origin and they provide a supernatural concentration of …

The fast development of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine drives the old
biomaterials, for example, fibrin glue, to find new applications in these areas. Aiming at …

We recently reported the generation of a highly elastic, crosslinked protein biomaterial via a
rapid photochemical process using visible light illumination. In light of these findings, we …

A two-component tissue adhesive based on biocompatible and bio-degradable polymers
(oxidized urethane dextran (Dex-U-AD) and gelatin) was prepared and photocrosslinked …

Abstract Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), as a rich source of growth factor, can form a fibrin gel
that recapitulates the extracellular matrix of the tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate …

Fibrin is a promising matrix for use in promoting nerve repair given its natural occurrence in
peripheral nerve injuries, and the biophysical properties of this matrix can be regulated to …
