“…PET is well known as a biocompatible material, , suggesting that PET may create no significant side effects on reconstruction in the defect region of ulna, except to provide shielding from the migration of cells from radius. The HC-10, HC-15, and HC-20 were implanted in the 10, 15, and 20 mm defects, respectively (Figure J–L).…”

Reconstruction of critical-sized defects (CSDs) in bone shafts remains a major challenge in orthopedics. Honeycomb (HC) scaffolds are considered promising as their uniaxial channels bridge the amputation stumps of bones and promote the ingrowth of bone and blood vessels (BV) into the scaffolds. In this study, the ability of the HC scaffolds, composed of the bone mineral or carbonate apatite (CAp), was evaluated by reconstructing 10, 15, and 20 mm segmental defects in the rabbit ulnar shaft. Radiographic and μ-computed tomography evaluations showed that bony calluses were formed around the scaffolds at 4 weeks post-surgery in all defects, whereas no callus bridged in the ulna without scaffolds. At 12 weeks post-surgery, the scaffolds were connected to the host bone in 10 and 15 mm defects, while a slight gap remained between the scaffold and host bone in the 20 mm defect. New bone formation and scaffold resorption progressed over 12 weeks. Histological evaluations showed that mature bones (MB) and BV were already formed at the edges of the scaffolds at 4 weeks post-surgery in 10, 15, and 20 mm defects. In the central region of the scaffold, in the 10 mm defect, MB and BV were formed at 4 weeks post-surgery. In the 15 mm defect, although BV were formed, a few MB were formed. It is concluded that CAp HC scaffolds have good potential value for the reconstruction of CSDs.

“…[ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ]. For example, nowadays polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and its derivatives are the most commonly used fibres in commercial vascular prostheses [ 5 ]. Other PET applications are sutures, heart valves, surgical meshes, scaffolds, urinary and bloodstream catheters [ 6 ].…”

“…However, despite the valuable bulk properties mentioned above, PET has low surface free energy, leading to poor wettability and poor adhesion in contact with living cells, which can cause damage to human tissues [ 5 , 6 ]. Therefore, to improve the hydrophilic properties of the polymeric surface and to increase its biocompatibility modification and additional functionalization are often required.…”

The applicability of beam-plasma chemical reactors generating cold hybrid plasma for the production of noncytotoxic polymeric surfaces with high hydrophilicity and good biocompatibility with human fibroblast culture and human red blood cells was studied. Oxygen hybrid plasma was excited by the joint action of a continuous scanning electron beam and a capacity-coupled RF-gas discharge. Experiments showed that hybrid plasma treatment caused polar oxygen-containing functional group formation in the surface layer of poly (ethylene terephthalate) films. No thermal or radiative damage in tested polymer samples was found. The plasma-modified polymers turned out to be noncytotoxic and revealed good biocompatibility with human fibroblasts BJ-5ta as well as lower hemolytic activity than untreated poly (ethylene terephthalate). Experiments also demonstrated that no phenomena caused by the electrostatic charging of polymers occur in hybrid plasma because the electron beam component of hybrid plasma eliminates the item charge when it is treated. The electron beam can effectively control the reaction volume geometry as well as the fluxes of active plasma particles falling on the item surface. This provides new approaches to the production of abruptly structured patterns or smooth gradients of functionalities on a plane and 3D polymeric items of complicated geometry.

This research aimed to develop wound dressings from weft-knitted spacer fabrics as an alternative to existing dressing options. A Stoll Type CMS530 HP electronic flat knitting machine was used to develop spacer weft knitted fabrics, which were tested with various experimental configurations by adjusting the linking distances, spacer yarn ratios, and inlays for proper optimization. Fabric physical and performance properties were evaluated to determine the application of wound dressings and the influence of structural differences. The result showed that the fabric with nylon-to-cotton yarn containing a linking distance setting of 6 needles at a ratio of 1:3, had the highest total performance value, making it the most appropriate fabric for exudate dressing in humid environmental conditions. The fabric with the highest water absorption capacity, and moisture management fabric type was the most effective.
