Impact of Serum Source on Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell Osteogenic Differentiation in Culture (2019)
Journal Article
Popov, A., Scotchford, C., Grant, D., & Sottile, V. (2019). Impact of Serum Source on Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell Osteogenic Differentiation in Culture. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 20(20), https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms20205051

Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) show promise for musculoskeletal repair applications. Animal-derived serum is extensively used for MSC culture as a source of nutrients, extracellular matrix proteins and growth factors. However, the routine use of...

Improved phosphate‐based glass fiber performance achieved through acid etch/polydopamine treatment (2019)
Journal Article
Parsons, A. J., Felfel, R. M., Wadge, M. D., & Grant, D. M. (2020). Improved phosphate‐based glass fiber performance achieved through acid etch/polydopamine treatment. International Journal of Applied Glass Science, 11(1), 35-45. https://doi.org/10.1111/ijag.13672

Phosphate based glass fibres (PGF) are of interest as reinforcements for degradable implants, but have seen limited application due to their rapid loss of strength when subjected to aqueous conditions. Previous studies have utilised heat treatments t... Read More about Improved phosphate‐based glass fiber performance achieved through acid etch/polydopamine treatment.
