Antifungal properties and biocompatibility of silver nanoparticle coatings on silicone maxillofacial prostheses in vitro.
Journal of biomedical materials research. Part B, Applied biomaterials
May 10, 2017
Patients with facial prostheses suffer from yeast, Candida albicans, infections. This study aimed to determine the biocompatibility and antifungal properties of silicone facial prostheses coated with silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) in vitro. Medical gr...
Versatile Soft Grippers with Intrinsic Electroadhesion Based on Multifunctional Polymer Actuators.
Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
Nov 9, 2015
A highly versatile soft gripper that can handle an unprecedented range of object types is developed based on a new design of dielectric elastomer actuators employing an interdigitated electrode geometry, simultaneously maximizing both electroadhesion...
The effects of environmental and compositional manipulations on the longevity of Tessari-made foam for sclerotherapy.
Journal of vascular surgery. Venous and lymphatic disorders
Sep 4, 2014
BACKGROUND: Tessari-made foam sclerotherapy is performed around the world in a variety of clinics differing in methods, equipment, temperatures, and altitudes. We investigated how the following factors affected the foam's longevity: silicone vs nonsi...
A stretchable sensor for force estimation in soft wearable robots.
IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Jul 1, 2022
Soft wearable robots to assist human movements, such as exosuits, have rapidly gained attention thanks to their compliance, low weight and accessibility. However, force measurement in exosuits still rely on load cells and rigid sensors that are not w...
Soft robotic sleeve supports heart function.
Science translational medicine
Jan 18, 2017
There is much interest in form-fitting, low-modulus, implantable devices or soft robots that can mimic or assist in complex biological functions such as the contraction of heart muscle. We present a soft robotic sleeve that is implanted around the he...
