Regenerative medicine has involved the use of biomaterials in the form of scaffolds, which are temporary support structures for cell and tissue growth. These scaffolds must have characteristics such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, toxicity, porosity with interconnected pores, surface for cell adhesion, mechanical integrity and be sterilizable. To do so, we have collagen, which is t…
The objective of this study is the development of materials with the possibility of use as a hemostatic agent. To achieve this goal will be prepared and characterized neutral sponges of collagen obtained by alkaline hydrolysis, cross-linked or not with grape seed extract, which has as its main component proanthocyanidin .Serous porcine will be used as the source of collagen. The materials…
Hyperthermic and photodynamic therapies are well characterized as effective ways to eliminate tumors, but the interest now lays in the application of both therapies together. We aim to investigate the viability of hyperthermic therapy through gold nanorods activation (with laser at 810 nm) applied together with photodynamic therapy through Photogem® activation (with laser at 630 nm), eith…
Hyperthermia and photodynamic therapy are very promising interventions for cancer ablation, for microorganisms eradication and for many diseases diagnostics. Some studies indicate that if both therapies are performed together, there is a synergistic effect which enhances the therapeutic success rate. We propose to investigate this synergistic effect using gold nanorods (well-characterized…
