Chitosan-Coated Collagen Membranes Promote Chondrocyte Adhesion, Growth, and Interleukin-6 Secretion
Designing scaffolds made from natural polymers may be highly attractive for tissue engineering strategies. We sought to produce and characterize chitosan-coated collagen membranes and to assess their efficacy in promoting chondrocyte adhesion, growth, and cytokine secretion. Porous collagen membranes were placed in chitosan solutions then crosslinked with glutaraldehyde vapor. Fourier transform...
متن کاملChitosan-coated Cellulose/soy Protein Membranes with Improved Physical Properties and Hemocompatibility
A series of cellulose/soy protein membranes (CSM) was coated with chitosan to improve the mechanical properties, cytocompatibility, and hemocompatibility. The original CSM and chitosan-coated CSM (CH/CSM) were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy, water contact angle testing, and tensile testing. CH/CSM had a smoother...
متن کاملChitosan-polyethylene glycol coated cotton membranes for wound dressings
Membranes have been developed by coating a blend of chitosan (CS) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) of different molecular weights (4000, 10,000 and 20,000) on cotton fabric followed by freeze drying. The influence of PEG molecular weight on the physical characteristics of the membranes has been investigated. The scanning electron microscopy of the coated fabric reveals porous structure. The porosi...
متن کاملUse of Colchicine in Reduction or Prevention of Talc-induced Intra-abdominal Adhesion Bands
Background: Postoperative peritoneal adhesion bands are one of the most common complications caused by foreign material. Objective: To investigate the effect of colchicine on talc-induced peritoneal adhesion bands. Method: Adhesion bands were induced in 30 short hair England Guinea pigs by introduction of talc-saline solution (10 mL, 10%) into the peritoneal cavity. Afterwards, the pigs were ...
متن کاملPrevention of Intra-Abdominal Adhesion by Bi-Layer Electrospun Membrane
The aim of this study was to compare the anti-adhesion efficacy of a bi-layer electrospun fibrous membrane consisting of hyaluronic acid-loaded poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) fibrous membrane as the inner layer and PCL fibrous membrane as the outer layer with a single-layer PCL electrospun fibrous membrane in a rat cecum abrasion model. The rat model utilized a cecal abrasion and abdominal wall ins...
