3D printing for the clinic: examining contemporary polymeric biomaterials and their clinical utility
(2020-03-09)
Article
Open AccessThe advent of additive manufacturing offered the potential to revolutionize clinical medicine, particularly with patient-specific implants across a range of tissue types. However, to date, there are very few examples of ... -
4D printable salicylic acid photopolymers for sustained drug releasing, shape memory, soft tissue scaffolds
(American Chemical Society, 2023-01-01)
Article
Open Access3D printing of pharmaceuticals offers a unique opportunity for long-term, sustained drug release profiles for an array of treatment options. Unfortunately, this approach is often limited by physical compounding or processing ... -
Customized fading scaffolds: strong polyorthoester networks via thiol–ene cross-linking for cytocompatible surface-eroding materials in 3D printing
(2021-04-12)
Article
Open AccessPolyorthoesters are a highly desirable class of cytocompatible materials that are able to rapidly surface-erode. Despite their promise, their mechanical weakness and complex synthesis have limited their processability and ... -
Modular functionalization of laminarin to create value-added naturally derived macromolecules
(2020-11-18)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyWith society’s growing awareness of climate change, novel renewable and naturally sourced materials have received increasing attention as substitutes for petroleum-based products. Laminarin (LAM–OH) is a highly abundant, ... -
Organocatalysis for depolymerisation
(2019)
Article
Open AccessPolymeric materials have been accumulating in the environment for decades as a result of the linear way of consuming plastics. Unfortunately, the current approaches followed to treat such a large amount of plastic waste, ... -
Robust alginate/hyaluronic acid thiol–yne click-hydrogel scaffolds with superior mechanical performance and stability for load-bearing soft tissue engineering
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2020)
Article
Open AccessHydrogels based on hyaluronic acid (HA) exhibit great potential as tissue engineering (TE) scaffolds as a consequence of their unique biological features. Herein, we examine how the advantages of two natural polymers (i.e. ... -
Self-healing, stretchable and robust interpenetrating network hydrogels
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2018)
Article
Open AccessA self-healable stretchable hydrogel system that can be readily synthesized while also possessing robust compressive strength has immense potential for regenerative medicine. Herein, we have explored the addition of ...
