Characterization of porous, dexamethasone-releasing polyurethane coatings for glucose sensors.
(Acta Biomaterialia, 2014-11)Commercially available implantable needle-type glucose sensors for diabetes management are robust analytically but can be unreliable clinically primarily due to tissue-sensor interactions. Here, we present the physical, ... -
Peptide interfacial biomaterials improve endothelial cell adhesion and spreading on synthetic polyglycolic acid materials.
(Ann Biomed Eng, 2010-06)Resorbable scaffolds such as polyglycolic acid (PGA) are employed in a number of clinical and tissue engineering applications owing to their desirable property of allowing remodeling to form native tissue over time. However, ... -
The effect of nitric oxide surface flux on the foreign body response to subcutaneous implants.
(Biomaterials, 2012-09)Although the release of nitric oxide (NO) from biomaterials has been shown to reduce the foreign body response (FBR), the optimal NO release kinetics and doses remain unknown. Herein, polyurethane-coated wire substrates ...
