Functionalised carbon nanotubes: high biocompatibility with lack of toxicity
Recent studies from our laboratories have clearly shown the utility of the carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in biomedical applications. Therefore, the behaviour of CNTs following in vivo administration is of high interest. In this paper, we summarise some of our previously published results towards the assessment of the health impact of CNTs. We will initially describe the in vivo distribution of ...

S-SoDiA: a semantic enabled social diagnosis advisor
Medical information systems have recently gained momentum as a proof-of-concept of the efficiency of new support-oriented technologies, in particular, semantic technologies. In principle, diagnosis or medicine advisory and recommendation can change the current biomedical IT landscape, providing intelligent reasoning and inference support. This paper presents S-SoDiA, a social diagnosis advisor ...

Dental drilling in severe and demanding environments
The application of diamond coatings on dental cutting tools has been the subject of attention in order to improve cutting performance and life in orthodontic applications. In order to improve the adhesion between diamond and WC-Co substrates, it is necessary to etch cobalt from the surface and prepare it for subsequent diamond growth. Alternatively, a Titanium Nitride (TiN) interlayer can be used ...
