Adhesion of tissue glues to different biological substrates
Tissue adhesives are attractive materials with potential to replace the use of sutures and staples in the repair of the injured tissues. The research field of tissue adhesives is dynamically growing, and different methods and tissue models are employed to evaluate the adhesive properties of newly developed materials. It is thus difficult to directly compare the properties of materials developed...
متن کاملTransglutaminases: nature's biological glues.
Transglutaminases (Tgases) are a widely distributed group of enzymes that catalyse the post-translational modification of proteins by the formation of isopeptide bonds. This occurs either through protein cross-linking via epsilon-(gamma-glutamyl)lysine bonds or through incorporation of primary amines at selected peptide-bound glutamine residues. The cross-linked products, often of high molecula...
متن کاملAdhesion of vesicles to curved substrates.
We investigate the adhesion of vesicles, under the influence of a contact potential, to substrates with various geometry. For axisymmetric configurations, we find that the transition from a free vesicle to a bound state depends significantly on the substrate shape. In general, the critical values of the contact potential at which these transitions take place are lower for a concave-shaped subst...
متن کاملBioinspired Nanoparticulate Medical Glues for Minimally Invasive Tissue Repair.
Delivery of tissue glues through small-bore needles or trocars is critical for sealing holes, affixing medical devices, or attaching tissues together during minimally invasive surgeries. Inspired by the granule-packaged glue delivery system of sandcastle worms, a nanoparticulate formulation of a viscous hydrophobic light-activated adhesive based on poly(glycerol sebacate)-acrylate is developed....
متن کاملEffect of silica particles on adhesion strength of polyvinyl chloride coatings on metal substrates
The aim of this study was to improve the adhesion performance of plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coatings on steel substrates by using nanoparticles. For this purpose, the PVC plastisol with different concentration of nano-silica was prepared and applied to bond steel joints. The adhesive strength of the joints was determined by single-lap shear test. Moreover, mechanical properties and mi...
