Abstract: Conventional mechanical testing is the 'gold standard' for assessing the stiffness (N mm-1) and strength (MPa) of bone, although it is not applicable in-vivo since it is inherently invasive and destructive. The mechanical integrity of… read more here.

Abstract: Tissue engineering typically requires a use of scaffolds when delivering tissue-specific cells to be engineered. Hydrogels are frequently used as scaffolds, because their composition, structure, and function resemble the natural tissue extracellular matrix. In this… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.exger.2017.08.003
Abstract: ABSTRACT We tested the hypothesis that hesperidin would reverse age‐related aortic stiffness, perivascular adipose (PVAT) mediated‐arterial stiffening and PVAT advanced glycation end‐products (AGE) accumulation. Aortic pulse wave velocity (aPWV) and intrinsic mechanical stiffness, two measures… read more here.
