Carbon Fibers in Biomedical Applications

Leave a Comment / Basic Science, Bone regeneration, Uncategorized / October 6, 2020

Carbon fiber (CF) consists of a multitude of unique physical, chemical and biological characteristics that can be utilized and exploited for a number of diverse applications. Being light weight, high strength, and chemically stable, so they are applied in various fields including aeronautical science and space science. Investigation of applications of carbon fibers to biomaterials was started 30 or more years ago, and various products have been developed. It is used widely in imaging equipment structures to support limbs being X-rayed or treated with radiation.

Leave a Comment / Basic Science, Bone regeneration, Uncategorized / October 6, 2020

Carbon fiber-reinforced polyether­therketone or CFR-PEEK implants have been used in orthopedic surgery, and spine surgery in particular, for almost 2 decades. However, the increased use of these carbon-reinforced implants has recently occurred in orthopedic traumatology, sports medicine and oncology. Carbon-reinforced implants are made of composite materials that consist of carbon fiber sheets inlayed within a …

(Featured in NATURE ) Three Biotech Solutions for Knee Repair

Leave a Comment / Platelet Rich Plasma, Uncategorized / October 7, 2020

If you look very carefully at the C-curved squiggle taking shape on a 3-D printer at Columbia University Medical Center, you just might spot the future of knee repair. Layer by layer, the machine’s tiny needle squirts out a bead of white polymer, matching a virtual blueprint of a meniscus—the semicircular band of tough, fibrous cartilage that serves as the knee’s shock absorber. A bioprinter in the laboratory of Jeremy Mao can churn out three menisci in just under 16 minutes.

Using Telehealth to Expand Access to Essential Health Services during the COVID-19 Pandemic

Leave a Comment / COVID-19, Uncategorized / October 6, 2020

Changes in the way that health care is delivered during this pandemic are needed to reduce staff exposure to ill persons, preserve personal protective equipment (PPE), and minimize the impact of patient surges on facilities. Healthcare systems have had to adjust the way they triage, evaluate, and care for patients using methods that do not rely on in-person services.

The future with antibiotic resistance, Spider silk, Bioprinting advances, bioscaffolds, new Cell harvesting techniques

Leave a Comment / Basic Science, Uncategorized / October 6, 2020

Biomedical engineering is a huge topic
nowadays – especially with COVID-19
circulating the globe. Biomedical engineering
(often known as ‘medical engineering’) is the term
used for the combination of biology and engineering
or applying engineering materials to medicine and
healthcare. BME (biomedical engineering) is very
important for the healthcare industry – from
advancing medical treatments to monitoring a
condition – without it the healthcare industry would
be very unreliable.
