The emergence of biodegradable polymers has transformed tissue engineering and biomedical applications by offering materials that can safely degrade within the body while providing temporary support ...

The utilization of biodegradable biomaterials as a therapeutic modality for musculoskeletal tissue regeneration has emerged as a promising avenue for ...

Plastics make up approximately 5–12 % of global waste generation, constituting around 20–30 % of waste by weight. Alarmingly, about 60 % of plastics end up as plastic waste (PW) in the environment. 2 ...

The traditional paradigm of metallic biomaterials requires metals with improved corrosion resistance in the body. A new class of biodegradable materials – ...

Natural sources, such as microorganisms (e.g., bacteria, fungi, yeast, and algae) and plant extracts, have acted as eco-friendly precursors for producing nanoparticles with several potential ...

While natural polymers, including starches and cellulose, are still commonly used in biomedical research, the utilization of synthetic biodegradable polymers in pharmaceutical and tissue-engineering ...

Over the past 65 years, organ transplants — considered the “gold standard” of surgery — have saved hundreds of thousands of lives. But what if we could bypass transplants, and instead repair existing ...

Severe skeletal muscle injury, especially volumetric muscle loss, remains difficult to treat because effective regeneration ...

A recent study published in the journal Engineering delves into the application of tissue engineering in spinal cord injury (SCI) repair, presenting a comprehensive review of the latest research and ...
