The aim of study was to evaluate the progression of the ankle articular cartilage alterations after a post-immobilization muscle stretching. Twenty-nine Wistar rats were separated into five groups: C--control, S--stretched, SR--stretch recovery, IS--immobilized and stretched, and ISR--immobilized stretched recovery. The

Tissue engineering is a promising approach for treatment of disc degeneration. Herein, we evaluated effects of rotating bioreactor culture on the extracellular matrix production and proliferation of human annulus fibrosus (AF) cells. AF cells were embedded into alginate beads, and
A disposable electrochemical sensor for the determination of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) based on nanocomposites of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and poly(safranine T) (PST) was reported. The sensor was prepared by coating a rGO film on a pre-anodized graphite electrode (AGE)

To use the ultrashort time-to-echo magnetic resonance imaging (UTE MRI) technique to quantify short T2* properties (obtained through gradient echo) of a disc from the human temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and to corroborate regional T2* values with biomechanical properties and histologic
International journal for numerical methods in biomedical engineering, 28(12), 1184-1197 (2012-12-06)
This work describes an expert system aimed to an accurate classification of cell tissue on microscopic images coming from studies of bone tissue regeneration from stem cells. We analyze a wide number of phenotype and color issues to build effective
