Scaffolds produced for tissue engineering applications are proven to be promising alternatives to be used in healing and regeneration of injured tissues and organs. In this study, porous and fibrous poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) scaffolds were prepared by wet spinning technique and modified by addition of tricalcium phosphate (TCP) and by immobilizing gelatin onto fibers. Meanwhile, gelatin microspheres carrying Ceftriaxone sodium (CS), a model antibiotic, were added onto the scaffolds and antimicrobial ...

Regenerative medicine is focused on functional restoration of a particular tissue and organs. Stem cell based miniaturized heterogenous cellular clusters named organoids, exhibit features of organ functionality, self-organization, multicellularity, and utility. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), have great potential to develop organoids of specific tissues and utilized in regenerative medicine. Organoid technologies have revolutionized the approach to human development and diseases, providing outstandi...
Enhancing biocompatibility of tantalum via anodization for orthopedic applications
Uslu, Ece; Ercan, Batur (null; 2018-12-06)
Tantalum and its alloys have been investigated as the next generation of orthopedic implant materials in the last decade. Being a valve metal, tantalum forms a naturally occurring stable oxide layer approximately 3-5 nm on its surface at ambient conditions and this layer both prevents heavy ion release from the metal and provides a natural barrier for implant corrosion. In fact, due to its chemically inert nature, tantalum has the highest corrosion resistance of all metals used in orthopedic applications. T...
