Biodegradable HEMA-based hydrogels with enhanced mechanical properties

Dominique Pioletti, Mohamadreza Nassajian Moghadam

Hydrogels are widely used in the biomedical field. Their main purposes are either to deliver biological active agents or to temporarily fill a defect until they degrade and are followed by new host tissue formation. However for this latter application, bio ...

Study of Antimicrobial Peptide Dendrimers on Wound healing in SKin Tissue Engineering

Philippe Abdel Sayed, Ariane Kaeppeli

Infections are one of the most common complications in burn injuries. In severe burns, the wound surface is optimal for microbial proliferation as the exudate is a protein rich environment. Autograft and cultured grafts are the main treatments used nowaday ...

Conversion of chitin derived N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (NAG) into polyols over transition metal catalysts and hydrogen in water

Felix Daniel Bobbink, Ning Yan, Xi Chen

N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine (NAG), the monomer of the world's second most abundant biopolymer chitin, has been for the first time converted to its corresponding amide/amino substituted sugar alcohols, smaller C2-4 polyols and N-acetylmonoethanolamine (NMEA), ov ...

Microfluidic assisted self-assembly of chitosan based nanoparticles as drug delivery agents

Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Mohammad Mahdi Hasani-Sadrabadi, Fatemeh Sadat Majedi, Jules John Vandersarl

We present a microfluidic platform for the synthesis of monodisperse chitosan based nanoparticles via self-assembly at physiological pH. The resultant nanoparticles are shown to encapsulate hydrophobic anticancer drugs while providing a sustainable release ...

Study of the pO2-sensitivity of the dendrimeric and free forms of Pd-meso-tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin, incorporated or not in chitosan-based nanoparticles

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Peter Käuper, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska

The concentration of oxygen and its rate of consumption are important factors in certain medical treatments, such as radiotherapy and photodynamic therapy (PDT). Measuring the tissue concentration of oxygen or its partial pressure (pO2) can be achieved by ...
