Assessment of physico-chemical and biological properties of sericin-collagen substrates for PNS regeneration

Nunzia Gallo et al.

Summary: The study combined sericin and type I collagen to develop a bioactive substrate that can support and enhance the regeneration of the peripheral nervous system. Thin films with different Ser:Col ratios were prepared and crosslinked by two different methods. The results suggest that Ser:Col blends have the potential to promote the repair of damaged peripheral nerves by providing sustained release of sericin from collagen-based nerve substrates.

Alginate-gelatin-Matrigel hydrogels enable the development and multigenerational passaging of patient-derived 3D bioprinted cancer spheroid models

Salvador Flores-Torres et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the development of patient-derived bioprinted tissue models using controlled fractions of alginate, gelatin, and Matrigel, supporting cancer spheroid growth. These engineered models can be dissociated and reprinted to generate multigenerational models, showing potential for studying patient drug response in vivo.

Synergistic effect of silane cross-linker (APTEOS) on PVA/gelatin blend films for packaging applications

Muhammad Zeeshan et al.

Summary: The objective of this work was to fabricate biodegradable hydrogel films suitable for packaging applications, by reacting polyvinyl alcohol and gelatin with or without the cross-linker 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTEOS). The increase in cross-linker amount was found to improve thermal stability and uniformity of structure, while decreasing swelling degree and affecting biodegradability.
