Self-healing concrete (SHC) has received a tremendous attention due to its advanced ability of automatic crack detection and crack repairing compared to the standard concrete. Two main approaches which considered as to-date self-healing mechanisms are autogenous and autonomous healing. In the past several years, the effort of the research has been focused on experimental works instead of numeri...

In this study, the role of local injection of butyric acid (BA) with autogenous omental graft was evaluated in healing of experimental Achilles tendon injury in rabbits. Nine adult male New Zealand rabbits were anesthetized and a partial thickness tenotomy was created on both hindlimbs. In treated group, omental graft was secured in place using BA soaked polygalactin 910 suture. In control grou...

background: various materials and techniques have been developed to facilitate bone healing process and reduce its healing period. in recent studies, it is pointed out that, platelet-rich fi brin (prf) which is derived autogenously from the own blood of the individuals, increase regeneration and accelerate the healing of the wound, due to the consisting various growing factors. the aim of the e...

In this paper, different mechanisms of self-healing, i.e. self-healing based on adhesive agents, self-healing based on bacteria, self-healing based on autogenous self-healing were described. Their required conditions were summarized. The previous investigations showed that all mechanisms of self-healing are effective to some extend under particular conditions. In this paper, concrete structures...

PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on autogenous bone graft remodeling during sinus augmentation in a rabbit model. MATERIALS Twelve New Zealand White rabbits were divided randomly into 3 groups based on their time of sacrifice (2, 4, and 8 weeks). All animals underwent a general anesthetic and harvesting of an autogenous bone graft from the right iliac crest with su...

Zinc has been demonstrated to play an important role in bone metabolism and is required for normal growth. However, no studies have investigated the influence of zinc on calvarial bone healing in aged or adult rats. The aim of the study was to evaluate whether alimentary zinc supplementation and depletion affect bone healing of calvarial defects implanted with osteopromotive substances in adult...

Wound dehiscence is the most frequent complication after ridge augmentation and causes postoperative infection, inadequate bone healing, or graft failure. In oral cavity, conservative treatment for difficult to maintain until secondary healing occurs because of its normal flora, dynamic masticatory muscle movement, humid environment. This paper reports an effective method using wound dressing m...
