  • Publication number: 20230374299
    Abstract: Cardiac tissue-on-a-chip platforms aimed at mimicking human cardiac tissue structures, are valuable tools to model, and serve as preclinical platforms for drug testing or therapies for cardiac repair. We have developed three types of electrospun scaffolds including furfuryl gelatin (f-gelatin) alone, with polycaprolactone (PCL) in the ratio of f-gelatin and PCL (1:1), and coaxial scaffolds with PCL (core) and f-gelatin (sheath). Scaffolds were developed through single nozzle electrospinning and coaxial electrospinning, respectively, to serve as scaffolds for cardiac tissue-on-a-chip platforms.

  • Publication number: 20030141064
    Abstract: A dry powder product comprised of an inorganic silicate-based compound and an organic compound are mixed with fresh water as a catalyst, such that the mixture enters into hydration reaction, and when injected into existing fractures in low permeability formations surrounding earth boreholes, the resulting increase in volume of the mixture from the hydration reaction causes the existing fractures to have increased dimensions.
