Evolution of silicate bioglass particles as porous microspheres with a view towards orthobiologics (2022)
Journal Article
Islam, M. T., Nuzulia, N. A., Macri-Pellizzeri, L., Nigar, F., Sari, Y. W., & Ahmed, I. (2022). Evolution of silicate bioglass particles as porous microspheres with a view towards orthobiologics. Journal of Biomaterials Applications, 36(8), 1427-1443. https://doi.org/10.1177/08853282211059294

Although FDA approved and clinically utilised, research on 45S5 Bioglass® and S53P4 including other bioactive glasses continues in order to advance their applicability for a range of alternate applications. For example, rendering these particles poro... Read More about Evolution of silicate bioglass particles as porous microspheres with a view towards orthobiologics.

Development and in vitro assessment of a bi-layered chitosan-nano-hydroxyapatite osteochondral scaffold (2022)
Journal Article
Pitrolino, K. A., Felfel, R. M., Pellizzeri, L. M., McLaren, J., Popov, A. A., Sottile, V., …Grant, D. M. (2022). Development and in vitro assessment of a bi-layered chitosan-nano-hydroxyapatite osteochondral scaffold. Carbohydrate Polymers, 282, Article 119126. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.carbpol.2022.119126

An innovative approach was developed to engineer a multi-layered chitosan scaffold for osteochondral defect repair. A combination of freeze drying and porogen-leaching out methods produced a porous, bioresorbable scaffold with a distinct gradient of...
