We have developed glucose-responsive implantable microdevices for closed-loop delivery of insulin and conducted in vivo testing of these devices in diabetic rats. The microdevices consist of an albumin-based bioinorganic membrane that utilizes glucose oxidase (GOx), catalase (CAT) and manganese dioxide

Bio-inspired chemical approach has been developed for the surface modification and electrophoretic deposition of manganese dioxide and zirconia nanoparticles, prepared by chemical precipitation methods. Caffeic acid, trans-cinnamic acid, p-coumaric acid, and 2,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid were investigated for the surface modification of
A lightweight, flexible, and highly efficient energy management strategy is needed for flexible energy-storage devices to meet a rapidly growing demand. Graphene-based flexible supercapacitors are one of the most promising candidates because of their intriguing features. In this report, we
Manganese dioxide (MnO(2)) particles 2-3 nm in size were deposited onto a porous "activated microwave expanded graphite oxide" (aMEGO) carbon scaffold via a self-controlled redox process. Symmetric electrochemical capacitors were fabricated that yielded a specific capacitance of 256 F/g (volumetric:
