What Are Gold NanoCages?
Gold nanocages refer to the hollow gold nanostructures with porous walls that were developed by Sun and Xia and Chen et al. in the early 2000s. The hollow and porous structures are synthesized by the galvanic replacement between silver nanocubes and chloroauric acid in aqueous solution. By controlling the size of nanocube templates, the monodispersed cubic nanocages are readily obtained with ...

Do You Really Know Hydroxyapatite?
As an important branch of biomedical materials, bioceramics are mainly used to manufacture hard tissue repair devices and artificial organs in vivo, and generally have good biocompatibility. According to the chemical activity in the physiological environment, bioceramics can be divided into three types: Nearly inert bioceramics, only weak or no chemical reaction occurs when exposed to the ...

Identification of a suitable sterilisation method for collagen derived from a marine Demosponge
Collagen is widely used as a biomedical material, and its importance is likely to grow as research and understanding progresses in this field. As a biomedical material, ensuring the sterility of collagen before use as, or incorporation into, a medical device is paramount. However, common sterilisation techniques can induce changes in the physical structure and protein chemistry of collagen, ...

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 ...

Biomedical applications of organically modified bioconjugated silica nanoparticles
Nanoparticles are one of the most important prominent areas in the field of nanotechnology, with a broad significant role in current life sciences and human healthcare applications. Among the nanoparticles silica nanoparticles are explored in many biological applications because their size dependent novel properties and functions differ drastically from those of the bulk materials. In biomedical ...

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 ...

Imaging and analysis of chip formation during orthogonal cutting of titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V
Orthogonal cutting of titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V was investigated in a series of continuous and interrupted turning tests. Direct observation of the chip formation zone was achieved using a high speed imaging system with a long-distance microscope lens. Frame rates from 20,000 to 50,000 frames per second were used to record the chip formation cycle over a range cutting speeds from 4 to 150 m/min ...

Phase contrast X-ray imaging
In the last decade X-ray imaging based on phase contrast greatly advanced thanks to the use of unmonochromatic synchrotron hard X-rays. The recent advances are going beyond microradiology and microtomography to reach nanometre scale. This paper reviews basic theory and selected applications to biomedical and materials sciences. The forthcoming improvements in phase contrast X-ray imaging will ...
