Coaxial and triaxial structured fibers by electrospinning for tissue engineering and sustained drug release
Khalf, Abdurizzagh Alfitori (2016-05)Coaxial and triaxial electrospinning are novel methods for fabrication of multilayered nano and micro-size fibers with desirable features such as co-solution blending, reinforced core, porous and hollow structure. However, ... -
Composite Scaffolds of Natural and Synthetic Polymers for Bladder Tissue Engineering
Lawrence, Benjamin J. (Oklahoma State University, 2006-07-01)Composite scaffolds with a layered structure (chitosan-PLGA-chitosan) were formed through a combination of solvent casting and controlled-rate freezing and lyophilization. The 3D architecture, stress-strain behavior, and ... -
Design of synthetic scaffolds for tissue regeneration applications
Pok, Seokwon (2010-12)Scope and Method of Study: This study evaluated a novel process of PCL matrix formation, while independently regulating the mechanical, degradation, and biological properties. Its properties were compared with properties ... -
Designing a Bioreactor for Regenerating High Aspect Ratio Tissues
Devarapalli, Mamatha (Oklahoma State University, 2008-12-01)Many tissues have a high aspect ratio (large surface area relative to the thickness of the matrix) and contain multiple cell types. Effect of flow-through configuration within these systems has not been studied. In these ... -
Deterministic models to explain the phenomenon of interfacial mixing in refined products pipelines
Patrachari, Anirudh Ramanujan (2012-12)Scope and Method of Study: -
Development, characterization and evaluation of NTPDase-modified polymer for inhibiting platelet deposition
Muthuvijayan, Vignesh (2009-05)The lack of haemocompatibility in biomaterials is a major concern in blood contacting devices. It causes serious complications such as platelet adhesion and aggregation, thrombosis and shedding of emboli, the latter which ... -
Effect of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 concentration gradients on monocyte migration in a three-dimensional in vitro vascular tissue model
Ghousifam, Neda (2015-07)The initiation of atherosclerosis is marked by the accumulation of lipid substances in the subendothelial layer of major arteries, followed by adhesion and transmigration of monocytes to the extracellular matrix (ECM). ... -
Effect of Serum and Cellular Proteins on Hybrid Vector Transduction Efficiency
Karode, Shishir S. (Oklahoma State University, 2010-07-01)Our study involved formation of hybrid vector complex from viral and synthetic parts and studying the effect of presence of proteins on transduction of the hybrid vector. We separated proteins from virus-like particles and ... -
Evaluating tissue culture platforms for use in drug development: A multi-method validational approach
German, Carrie Lynn (2017-12)There has been significant interest in the development of synthetic tissue constructs for drug screening. Multiple approaches to developing tissue cultures that mimic in vivo conditions have been investigated, including ... -
Exploring the use of enzymes to dissolve blood clots
Randall, Blake (Oklahoma State University, 2022-04-15)Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a condition caused by the buildup of plaque in the coronary artery. This plaque is mostly composed of fibrin and other components of blood clots. Coronary heart disease is caused by blood ... -
