Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Danny T Akkad"
- Danny T Akkad's recent research primarily focuses on evaluating the physico-chemical properties of glass polyalkenoate cements (GPCs) used in medical applications, particularly in distal radius fixation.
- In a study published in October 2024, Akkad investigates the substitution of deionized water with 2% lidocaine hydrochloride in two GPC formulations, revealing enhancements in injectability without compromising mechanical properties.
- The research contributes to the field of biomaterials by examining the rheological, mechanical, ion release, and pH properties of aluminum-free GPCs that incorporate different molecular weight poly(acrylic) acids, providing valuable insights for future clinical applications.
