Investigate the in vitro biocompatibility, biodegradation, cytotoxicity, and differentiation potential of 3-D gelatin-nanocellulose composite scaffolds loaded with nanohydroxyapatite and simvastatin.

Bone tissue engineering has been proposed as a promising solution for healing of bone fractures. An important aspect of bone tissue engineering is the implantable scaffolds that participate in the regeneration and repair of bone tissue. In this study, the composite scaffolds of gelatin- nanocellulose loaded with nanohydroxyapatite and simvastatin (as the osteoinductive component) were fabricated using freeze- drying method.

A novel, efficient and magnetically recyclable Cu-Ni bimetallic alloy nanoparticle as a highly active bifunctional catalyst for Pd-free Sonogashira and C-N cross-coupling reactions: a combined theoretical and experimental study.

In this study, a FeO@SiO@Cyt-Ni/Cu nanocomposite as a novel heterogeneous bimetallic catalyst was synthesized which exhibits efficient performance for the Sonogashira and C-N cross-coupling reactions. The characterization of the catalyst was studied by FT-IR, PXRD, VSM, EDX, TEM, FE-SEM and TGA analyses. The geometry optimization and relative energies of the designed bimetallic complexes were theoretically determined using density functional theory (DFT) calculation at the B3LYP/6-31G**/LANL2DZ level.
