    Abstract : Most of the devastating diseases such as cancer are relatively incurable and have high risks of relapse. Therefore, persistent endeavors have been devoted to improve patient survival rate and quality of life. READ MORE

  3. 3. Biodegradable Thermoplastic Elastomers

    Author : Basse Asplund; Jöns Hilborn; Tim Bowden; Iskender Yilgör; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Chemistry; poly urethane ; poly urethane urea ; biomaterial; biodegradable; polymer; thermoplastic elastomer; haemocomatible; tissue engineering; biocompatible; Kemi;

    Abstract : A novel strategy for synthesising segmented poly(urethane urea) (PUU) without using a chain extender but nevertheless with the opportunity to vary the hard segment content has been developed. The strategy is based on amine formation from isocyanate upon reaction with water. READ MORE

  4. 4. Tailoring of Biomaterials using Ionic Interactions : Synthesis, Characterization and Application

    Author : Björn Atthoff; Jöns Hilborn; Tim Bowden; Mats Andersson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Chemistry; biodegradable polymers; ionomer; water uptake; protein delivery; protein adsorption; protein membrane; cell seeding efficiency; amphiphillic; inner structure; polarized membrane; Kemi;

    Abstract : The interactions between polymers and components of biological systems are an important area of interest within the fields of tissue engineering, polymer chemistry, medicine and biomaterials. In order to create such a biomimetic material, it must show the inherent ability to reproduce or elicit a biological function. READ MORE

    Abstract : The extracellular matrix is (ECM) is a network of large, structural proteins and polysaccharides, important for cellular behavior, tissue development and maintenance. Present thesis describes work exploring ECM as scaffolds for tissue engineering by manipulating cells cultured in vitro or by influencing ECM expression in vivo. READ MORE
