Journal Article
Wuyts, K., Meeus, J., Muees, J., Scurr, D. J., Amssoms, K., Annaert, P., …Van den Mooter, G. (2015). In vivo evaluation of different formulation strategies for sustained release injectables of a poorly soluble HIV protease inhibitor. Journal of Controlled Release, 199, 1-9. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jconrel.2014.11.020

At present no scientific rationale exists for selecting a particular enabling strategy to formulate a poorly water-soluble drug, although this is crucial as it will influence the in vivo performance of the resulting formulation. This study provides a... Read More about In vivo evaluation of different formulation strategies for sustained release injectables of a poorly soluble HIV protease inhibitor.

Copyright © 2014 SAE International. Since 2009, there has been a rise in deposits of various types found in diesel fuel injection systems. They have been identified in the filter, the injector tip and recently inside the injector. The latter internal...

Injectable and porous PLGA microspheres that form highly porous scaffolds at body temperature (2014)
Journal Article

Injectable scaffolds are of interest in the field of regenerative medicine because of their minimally invasive mode of delivery. For tissue repair applications, it is essential that such scaffolds have the mechanical properties, porosity and pore dia...

High throughput screening for biomaterials discovery (2014)
Journal Article

Using microarray technologies thousands of biomedical materials can be screened in a rapid, parallel and cost effective fashion to identify the optimum candidate that fulfils a specific biomedical application. High throughput surface characterization... Read More about High throughput screening for biomaterials discovery.

Thermally Switchable Polymers Achieve Controlled Escherichia coli Detachment (2014)
Journal Article
Hook, A. L., Chang, C., Scurr, D. J., Langer, R., Anderson, D. G., Williams, P., …Alexander, M. R. (2014). Thermally Switchable Polymers Achieve Controlled Escherichia coli Detachment. Advanced Healthcare Materials, 3(7), 1020-1025. https://doi.org/10.1002/adhm.201300518

The thermally triggered release of up to 96% of attached uropathogenic E. coli is achieved on two polymers with opposite changes in surface wettability upon reduction in temperature. This demonstrates that the bacterial attachment to a surface cannot... Read More about Thermally Switchable Polymers Achieve Controlled Escherichia coli Detachment.
