Biomaterials

Scientists have created a bone-repair material from sheep's wool keratin that promotes the regeneration of more natural bone tissue in animal models.

Scientists have created a bone-repair material from sheep's wool keratin that successfully regenerated organized, natural-looking bone in animal models.

New nanoparticles inspired by lung fluid can deliver drugs directly to diseased lung tissue, reducing doses and side effects for respiratory conditions.

Researchers developed a biomaterial from jackfruit latex, pomegranate peel extract, and simvastatin that shows promise for treating periodontitis by regenerating tissues and stimulating bone formation.

Researchers discovered a stable size range for piezoelectric beta-glycine nanocrystals, enabling their potential use in bio-compatible electronics and sensors.

A new injectable biomaterial can travel through the bloodstream to repair damaged tissue, reducing inflammation and promoting healing in animal studies.
