Properties and Applications of PDMS for Biomedical Engineering: A Review

Inês Miranda, Andrews Souza, Paulo Sousa et al. · 21 Dec 2021

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is an elastomer with excellent optical, electrical and mechanical properties, which makes it well-suited for several engineering applications. Due to its biocompatibility, PDMS is widely used for biomedical purposes. This widespread use has also led to the massification of the soft-lithography technique, introduced for facilitating the rapid prototyping of micro and nanostructures using…

A Review of Glass-Ionomer Cements for Clinical Dentistry

Sharanbir K. Sidhu, John W. Nicholson · 28 Jun 2016

This article is an updated review of the published literature on glass-ionomer cements and covers their structure, properties and clinical uses within dentistry, with an emphasis on findings from the last five years or so. Glass-ionomers are shown to set by an acid-base reaction within 2-3 min and to form hard, reasonably strong materials with…

Formulation of Poloxamers for Drug Delivery

Andrew M. Bodratti, Paschalis Alexandridis · 18 Jan 2018

, are block copolymers of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(propylene oxide) (PPO), which have an amphiphilic character and useful association and adsorption properties emanating from this. Poloxamers find use in many applications that require solubilization or stabilization of compounds and also have notable physiological properties, including low toxicity. Accordingly, poloxamers serve well as excipients for…

Recent Advances in Biomaterials for 3D Printing and Tissue Engineering

Udayabhanu Jammalamadaka, Karthik Tappa · 1 Mar 2018

Three-dimensional printing has significant potential as a fabrication method in creating scaffolds for tissue engineering. The applications of 3D printing in the field of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering are limited by the variety of biomaterials that can be used in this technology. Many researchers have developed novel biomaterials and compositions to enable their use…
