Bone tissue engineering involves the combined use of materials with functional properties to
regenerate bone. Nanohydroxyapatite (nHA) can influence the behavior of cells. The …

High‐throughput (HT) development of new multifunctional polymers is accomplished by the
combination of different HT tools established in polymer sciences in the last decade …

Film thickness and functional group retention are routinely measured parameters for plasma
polymers. It is known that other parameters such as density, solubility and mechanical …

Chronic wounds are a major socio‐economic problem. Bacterial infections in such wounds
are a major contributor to lack of wound healing. An early indicator of wound infection is an …

Amine containing plasma polymer films are of interest due to their ability to bind
biomolecules either covalently or electrostatically. One issue with generating such plasma …

Biomaterials with graded functionality have various applications in cell and tissue
engineering. In this study, by controlling oxidative polymerization of dopamine, we …

The critical growth factor density required to support neural lineage generation from mouse
embryonic stem cells is assessed by constructing a surface density gradient of immobilized …

Modern biomaterials must not only perform specific mechanical and biological functions but
also satisfy a number of regulatory criteria including biocompatibility, durability and low …

In this study, we prepared polydopamine-gelatin templated electrospun nanofibers, which
were coated with precisely controlled amounts of biominerals in the form of simulated body …

Advanced approaches to direct the differentiation of embryonic stem cells are highly sought
after. The surface-bound chemical gradient format is a powerful screening approach that can …
