Biofabricated Nanowires and Nano-Composites

VTIP:09-092

The technology is a unique biofabrication process to create complex biocomposite materials. This process yields alloys bonded at the molecular level and directly integrates the biopolymer nanofiber substrates and the desired target materials. This process can be used to create nanofiber reinforced metal alloys, metal coated polymers, metal ...

Biomimetic Nanofibrous Device for Bone Repair

VTIP:08-078

This device is a degradable scaffold composed of mineralized polymer that mimics the appearance and mechanical properties of the bone. The device will mimic both regions usually found in viable bone, which are highly porous trabecular bone and compact, highly organized cortical bone. The device also contains porous, ...
