We examined the effect of a crystalline layer of silica particles in the size range 0.5-4 μm on the adsorption and surface growth of . Growth on these colloidal crystal monolayers (CCMs) was compared to growth on a flat plate of silica. All surfaces ...
Hydrolytically degradable poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hydrogels are promising platforms for cell encapsulation and tissue engineering. However, hydrolysis leads to bulk degradation and a decrease in hydrogel mechanical integrity. Despite these challe...
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) plays a major role in innate immune responses and has been shown to impact vascular dynamics when present at high concentrations. However, the impact of ultralow levels of LPS (<100 pg/mL), present in the body during states o...
Matrix metalloproteinase-1 and -8 are active during the wound healing and remodelling processes, degrading native extracellular matrix and implantable devices. However, traditional in vitro assays utilize primarily matrix metalloproteinase-1 to mimic...
