The developments in instrumentation include production of dedicated machines. For example, with the introduction of the Attomole 2000 , HVEE (High Voltage Engineering Europe B. V., P.O. Box 99,3800 AB Amersfoort, The Netherlands, Phone +31 33 4619741 Fax +31 33 4615291) has made available a compact C Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer ( C IRMS) for biomedical applications. The system provides C/ C ratios down to 10 from sub-milligram samples in typically a few minutes. Both solid samples (carbon) as well as CO, can be analyzed. The Attomole 2000 combines a compact instruments package with the extreme sensitivity of large tandem accelerators that are normally found in big research centres. [Pg.228]

Consequently, the scope of this chapter is to give an overview on the current developments of biomimetic polymers in biomedical applications including an introduction on cell-biomaterial interactions, applied biomimetic strategies, and synthesis and modification techniques for seleaed natural and S3mthetic polymers. Examples of recent studies using... [Pg.339]

This chapter focuses on the use of nanotechnology in the development of cellulose and chitin nanoctystals and their novel biomedical applications. It consists of four main sections. The first section is a brief introduction. The second section focuses on cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and their preparation procedure, physical properties, and surface modifications. Cationic modification of CNCs is also presented to produce positively charged CNCs. Various bioapplications of CNCs in bionanocomposites, drug delivery, and biosensors are discussed as well. The third section focuses on chitin nanoctystals (CHNCs). Except for a short introduction on chitin and its structure, the methods of isolation and characterization of chitin are discussed and the surface modifications and properties of CHNCs are summarized. The applications of CHNCs as reinforcing fillers in nanocomposites and several biomedical applications are discussed. The fourth section is a summary and perspective highlighting the future directions on the application of these natural nanoctystals in various key industries related to biomedicine. [Pg.202]

One way to obtain more hydrophilic PHAs consists in the introduction of specific functions into the macromolecular side chains. The combination of bioconversion and organic chemistry allows modulation of the physical properties of these bacterial polyesters, such as solubility, hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance, and water stability, from the perspective of biomedical applications. [Pg.284]

The introduction of biologically active agents into the porous structure of the fiber opens alternatives for the design of biomedical applications. Biodegradable and non-toxic materials that are able to work directly and locally in the human or animal are beneficial as implants used as drug delivery devices or temporary implants in... [Pg.260]

Nevertheless, most of the work reported on the post-polymerization modification of poly(all lene H-phosphonate)s concerns the functionalization with reactive pendant groups that include hydroxyl or amino groups, which make possible the introduction of a wide range of (bio)ac-tive molecules and leading to new reactive PPEs with tunable properties for biomedical applications. Most of the post-polymerization functionalization methods involve the corresponding polymeric chlorophosphite, since it was early demonstrated that cyclic allgrlene chlorophosphites such as 2-chloro-2-oxo-l,3,2-dioxaphospholane cannot be polymerized efficiently. ... [Pg.123]

Most LC-MS sample introduction techniques, such as thermospray, electrospray, and APCI, do not employ an electron beam to induce ionization, and lead to the formation of predominantly molecular ion species. This leads to the formation of higher mass fragments that may be monitored by SIM or SRM. Such techniques are frequently used in biomedical applications, and find particular application in the quantitative analysis of labile or polar compounds such as biomolecules from complex biological matrices. [Pg.2872]

Polymers containing carbonate units are of great interest for biomedical applications because of their better flexibility and reduced acidity of degradation products (Dobrzynski and Kasperczyk, 2006b). Introduction of TMC units in copolymer chains allows to modify the degradation profile and to decrease the stiffness of materials (Han et ah, 2012a Wach et al., 2013). [Pg.137]
