Researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology-Guwahati (IIT-G) and the Bose Institute, Kolkata have developed an advanced injectable hydrogel for localised cancer treatment. A statement ...

Orthopedic researchers have developed a promising new nanoparticle hydrogel that can be injected directly into bones weakened by osteoporosis. In a study recently published in the journal Bone ...

A new injectable hydrogel could change that, however, by transforming into a robust bone regeneration material when exposed to visible light. While bone injuries such as fractures typically heal ...

The packaging industry is at a pivotal juncture as it grapples with the complexities of bioplastics—materials heralded as eco-friendly solutions to the environmental challenges posed by traditional ...

We have addressed these challenges by designing a hydrogel that delivers drugs precisely to the tumour site, ensuring localised action," Das said. Hydrogels are water-based, three-dimensional polymer ...

When cells are encapsulated within a homogeneous gel matrix and given the right soluble cues, such as growth-factor proteins added to the culture medium, they can start to multiply and migrate ...

They are usually soft and weak, but can be made hard and tough. Hydrogels are gels that have water as their main constituent. In this study, the membrane tensegrity concept and multipolymer ...

The global packaging sector is witnessing a surge in interest around bioplastics, touted as an eco-friendly alternative to conventional fossil-fuel-based materials. However, the complexity of ...

OSAKA -- Panasonic Holdings has developed a plastic material that is degradable in seawater and is strong enough to be used for automotive interiors and home appliances, looking to market the ...

The Asics Gel-Nimbus 27 is a highly comfortable running shoe that makes cruising through long and easy runs more enjoyable. It’s not great for faster runs, and the Asics Gel-Nimbus 26 might ...

A single injection of the hydrogel, loaded with the chemotherapy drug Doxorubicin, results in a Rs 75 per cent reduction in tumour size within 18 days. The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh ...

Researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati and Bose Institute Kolkata undertook a study to produce an injectable hydrogel for the treatment of breast cancer. This innovative hydrogel ...
