The use of rigid materials to adequately support the joints and exert corrective forces that control the deformities of the bones is a key pre-requisite in prescribing custom-fit orthoses in rehabilitation treatment. Traditional orthotic materials ar...
A significant challenge still remains for the development of drug delivery system (DDS) using herbal medicine for clinical applications. The present study describes a novel DDS consisting of a natural antibacterial drug berberine and silk fibroin (SF...
Lead aprons are typically worn by radiographers to protect them from harmful radiation. As such, a good radiation shield must have a high Lead Equivalence to minimize the transmitted radiation dose during exposure. While most radiation shields fulfil...
In this study, we report a facile approach to develop composite nanofibrous mat for tissue engineering application. Montmorillonite (MMT) nanoparticles were first used to load an antipyretic analgesic drug, aspirin (ASP). The ASP-loaded MMT nanohybri...
In this research work, the effect of various construction parameters and structural characteristics of weft knitted spacer fabric on the compressive behavior and energy absorption capability was studied. The potential compression mechanism of the fab...
