background: development of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine has led to designing scaffolds and their modification to provide a better microenvironment which mimics the natural niche of the cells. gelatin surface modification was applied to improve scaffold flexibility and cytocompatibility. methods: plla/pcl aligned fibrous scaffold was fabricated using electrospinning method. adscs...

In the present study, polyamide (PA) was successfully reinforced with cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) prepared from date palm leaves using two different techniques, electrospinning and solution casting method, a comparative study of these systems performed. The morphological, thermal, wetting, mechanical properties nanocomposites were analyzed for CNC content between 0 5 wt%. Morphological analyses...

Genetic diversity amongst 21 induced mutant clones tolerant to salinity along with one non-irradiated sensitive clone of banana (Musa acuminata cv. Dwarf Cavendish (AAA)) were studied using morphological and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. Out of the 30 phenotypic indices screened, 23 were polymorph and two traits, leaf habit and blotches color, were differentiated by non-irrad...

Background In vitro culturing and retransplantion of vitrified- warmed ovarian tissue are two ways to restore fertility after radiation or chemotherapy.This study aimed to evaluate the incidence of apoptosis in vitrified human ovarian tissue after warming, long term culturing and xenotransplantation by morphological analyses and apoptosis genes expression evaluation. MaterialsAndMethods We obta...
