“…Interestingly, despite the low concentration of nanoparticles, conductivity was increased by 2-and 3-fold for AgNPs and AuNPs, respectively. This increase resembles what we have recently reported for the preparation of other collagen-nanosilver composites; 3 however, in the present study, measurements were carried out on hydrated gels, which more closely mimics physiological conditions. Representative absorption spectra for collagen hydrogels containing 0.1 mM of either nanosilver (left) or nanogold (right).…”

“…Note that connexin-43 levels were also recently reported by our team to be increased in cardiomyocytes cultured on collagen bres prepared with collagen-coated nanosilver as an electroconductive doping agent. 3 In the present work, we achieved a similar effect by using a so collagen matrix containing nanogold prepared in a one-pot reaction system.…”

“…Electroactive smart polymeric biomaterials could be used to build scaffolds that offer precise control over the amount, duration, and localization of the electrical stimulus, thus obviating the need for bone stimulators. These materials have already been tested in vitro, where they have demonstrated the ability to improve cell proliferation and differentiation [151][152][153]. If in addition to promoting these pro-osteogenic activities, these smart biomaterials can also be designed to biodegrade after a given useful time period, this would be yet another benefit [154].…”

“…Moreover, administration of high‐dose antibiotics may also cause adverse side effects and intolerable toxicity. The immobilization of novel antimicrobial particles in polymeric fibers is a relatively recent advancement in antimicrobial materials that may have the potential to aid in the eradication of such infections . The advantages of these fibers are related to their high ratio of surface area to volume and the potential to carry and steadily release a variety of embedded compounds or elements.…”
