Structural, mechanical and swelling characteristics of 3D scaffolds from chitosan-agarose blends (2018)
Journal Article
Felfel, R. M., Gideon-Adeniyi, M. J., Hossain, K. M. Z., Roberts, G. A., & Grant, D. M. (2019). Structural, mechanical and swelling characteristics of 3D scaffolds from chitosan-agarose blends. Carbohydrate Polymers, 204, 59-67. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.carbpol.2018.10.002

This study aimed to explore the correlation between mechanical and structural properties of chitosan-agarose blend (Ch-Agrs) scaffolds. Porosity of Ch-Agrs scaffolds was constant at 93%, whilst pore sizes varied between 150 and 550 μm. Pore sizes of...

Performance of multiphase scaffolds for bone repair based on two-photon polymerized poly(d,l-lactide-co-?-caprolactone), recombinamers hydrogel and nano-HA. Materials and Design, 160, 455-467. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matdes.2018.09.035

Multiphase hybrids were fabricated from poly(d,l-lactide-co-ɛ-caprolactone) (PLCL) copolymer scaffolds impregnated with silk-elastin-like recombinamers (SELRs) hydrogel containing 2 wt% hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (nHA). The PLCL scaffolds, triply-p...

Flexible and transparent films produced from cellulose nanowhisker reinforced agarose (2018)
Journal Article
Felfel, R. M., Hossain, K. M. Z., Kabir, S. F., Yee, S. L., Ahmed, I., & Grant, D. M. (2018). Flexible and transparent films produced from cellulose nanowhisker reinforced agarose. Carbohydrate Polymers, 194, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.carbpol.2018.04.005

Transparent and flexible nanocomposite films with a range of Agarose to Cellulose Nano-Whisker (CNW) ratios were produced using never-dried CNWs. The incorporation of never-dried CNWs within Agarose played an important role in the surface roughness (...
