Therapeutic potency of marine collagen/pectin scaffolds - Fabrication, characterization and evaluation.

Skin is an important vital organ that must be given proper care and protection from external damage and harmful microbes. If injured, it must be treated with an ideal wound dressing material with potent hemostatic and non-toxic properties. In the present study, fish collagen (FC) was extracted from the fins and tails of Black pomfret (Parastromateus niger).

Current Innovations in Intraocular Pressure Monitoring Biosensors for Diagnosis and Treatment of Glaucoma-Novel Strategies and Future Perspectives.

Biosensors are devices that quantify biologically significant information required for diverse applications, such as disease diagnosis, food safety, drug discovery and detection of environmental pollutants. Recent advancements in microfluidics, nanotechnology and electronics have led to the development of novel implantable and wearable biosensors for the expedient monitoring of diseases such as diabetes, glaucoma and cancer. Glaucoma is an ocular disease which ranks as the second leading cause for loss of vision.

A review on background, process and application of electrospun nanofibers for tissue regeneration.

Electrospinning is a versatile method which is used to synthesize nano/micro sized fibers under the influence of an electric field. Electrospun nanoscaffolds are one of the widely accepted platforms for cultivating soft and hard tissues as they create a perfect micro-environment for cell adhesion, proliferation and differentiation. Nanoscaffolds are widely used in the field of tissue engineering due to their versatility in aiding the growth of different types of cells and tissues for varied applications.

Therapeutic Efficacy of Polymeric Biomaterials in Treating Diabetic Wounds-An Upcoming Wound Healing Technology.

Diabetic wounds are one of the serious, non-healing, chronic health issues faced by individuals suffering from diabetic mellitus. The distinct phases of wound healing are either prolonged or obstructed, resulting in the improper healing of diabetic wounds. These injuries require persistent wound care and appropriate treatment to prevent deleterious effects such as lower limb amputation.

Facile synthesis of sericin modified graphene oxide nanocomposites for treating ischemic diseases.

Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is the major reason for death worldwide. Therapeutic angiogenesis serves as an effective approach to treat IHD. Sericin (S), a natural silk protein is widely used in regenerative medicine due to its excellent bioactive properties.
