摘要:
A compound includes a polysaccharide moiety and one or more chelating agents. The one or more chelating agents are covalently bonded to the polysaccharide moiety. The polysaccharide moiety can include a glycosaminoglycan moiety, such as a hyaluronic acid polymer or a sulfated glycosaminoglycan moiety. The compound can be used to treat or prevent a disease or disorder in a patient with a metal implant. The compound reduces a concentration of metal particulates or metal ions in the subject.
摘要:
A biphasic scaffold and devices and methods for making the scaffold are disclosed. An example scaffold may include (a) a first plurality of randomly-oriented nanofibers defining a first tab region, (b) a second plurality of randomly-oriented nanofibers defining a second tab region, and (c) a plurality of aligned nanofibers coupled to and extending between the first tab region and the second tab region, where the plurality of aligned nanofibers are suspended between the first tab region and the second tab region.

摘要:
A method for functionalizing graphene oxide includes reacting graphene oxide with a phosphite compound and a metal salt in the presence of a Lewis acid to produce phosphate functionalized graphene oxide including ions of the metal. An apparatus includes a bone scaffold construct formed of phosphate functionalized graphene oxide including metal ions. A bone scaffold construct includes a graphene oxide material formed in the shape of the bone scaffold construct, the graphene oxide material including graphene oxide, phosphate moieties covalently bound to the graphene oxide, and metal counter ions chemically associated with the phosphate moieties. A method for treating a bone defect includes administering a therapeutically effective amount of phosphate functionalized graphene oxide including metal ions.
