Tissue Engineering
Tissue engineering projects can be broken down into two categories: the development of an artificial ovary and the study of gradient scaffolds. The artificial ovary project is in response to sterilizing surgery or chemotherapy that can render young girls and women infertile... [More]

Materials from Enzymes
The biological reactions are ubiquitous and potential of these reactions for organic synthesis especially in polymer science have been recognized for quite some time, as evident by numbers of publications and so on... [More]

Enzymes for Defense
Enzymes are highly effective biocatalysts that exhibit the ability to accelerate reaction rates up to approximately 10¹⁷ times greater compared to the uncatalyzed reaction and offer a high degree of substrate, regio, stereo, and reaction specificity... [More]

Biocatalytic Materials and Coatings
The incorporation of enzymes into polymeric materials has led to the development of biocatalytic gels, foams, and coatings. The preparation of these materials involves the covalent crosslinking of enzyme functional groups with monomers leading to the formation of a bioplastic material... [More]

Bioactive Nanomaterials
The discovery of carbon nanotubes has attracted enormous attention over the past decade due to their potential significance in research toward nano-world. Nanotubes have much promise as advanced materials for use in several applications ranging from small molecular wires to drug encaptulation to the biosensors... [More]
