Biocompatibility of Bacterial Cellulose Based Biomaterials
Some bacteria can synthesize cellulose when they are cultivated under adequate conditions. These bacteria produce a mat of cellulose on the top of the culture medium, which is formed by a three-dimensional coherent network of pure cellulose nanofibers. Bacterial cellulose (BC) has been widely used in different fields, such as the paper industry, electronics and tissue engineering due to its rem...
متن کاملLong-term biocompatibility, chemistry, and function of microencapsulated pancreatic islets.
Transplantation of encapsulated living cells is a promising approach for the treatment of a wide variety of diseases. Large-scale application of the technique, however, is hampered by insufficient biocompatibility of the capsules. In the present study, we have implemented new as well as previously reported technologies to test biocompatibility issues of immunoisolating microcapsules on the long...
متن کاملBiocompatibility of the bacterial cellulose hydrogel in subcutaneous tissue of rabbits.
PURPOSE To evaluate the biocompatibility and local sensibility reaction to bacterial cellulose hydrogel (0.8%) implanted in subcutaneous tissue of rabbits. METHODS Fifteen New Zeland rabbits were randomly allocated into three groups: T1, 7 days, T2, 21 days, and T3, 84 days. The new material was implanted in the subcutaneous tissue of the ear; on the scalp over the periosteum; and on the oute...

born on the 15 of October, 1986 in Amsterdam. After graduating high school (Bilingual VWO, Berlage Lyceum, Amsterdam, cum laude) in 2005, he studied medicine at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam. During his studies in 2008, he became involved in spine research through a one-year research internship within the PhD project of dr. R.J. Kroeze, “Adipose stem cells on a biodegradable polymer for s...
متن کاملP19: Long-Term Potentiation
The term synaptic plasticity points to a series of persistent changes related to the activity of synapses. Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a reflection of synaptic plasticity that has an important role in learning and memory. LTP is a long-lasting increase of synaptic activity due to enhancement of excitatory synaptic transmission after a high-frequency train of electrical stimulations. Differe...
