UV-cured PVA-collagen co-network with staining-free photodynamic activity against chronic wound bacteria
Nikitia Mexia, Charles Brooker, Giuseppe Tronci
Chronic wounds affect 1-2% of the global population and represent an unsustainable healthcare, financial and economic burden. Delayed healing is largely associated with bacterial i…
An infection-responsive collagen-based wet-spun textile fibre for wound monitoring
Jonathon Gorman, Charles Brooker, Xinyu Li +1
Wound infections are a significant clinical and socioeconomic challenge, contributing to delayed healing and increased wound chronicity. To enable early infection detection and inf…
Ultrasound-Triggered Release of Anticancer Nanoparticles from Electrospun Fabrics Integrated with Soft Robotic Tentacles
Samuel C. T. Moorcroft, Benjamin Calmé, Charles Brooker +4
The prompt identification of pancreatic cancer symptoms is an ongoing clinical challenge, often leading to late diagnosis and poor prognosis. Tumor 'hijacking' of the pancreatic st…
Photodynamic, UV-curable and fibre-forming polyvinyl alcohol derivative with broad processability and staining-free antibacterial capability
Man Li, Charles Brooker, Rucha Ambike +4
Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (APDT) is a promising antibiotic-free strategy for broad-spectrum infection control in chronic wounds, minimising bacterial resistance risks. How…
Mechanical and suture-holding properties of a UV-cured atelocollagen membrane with varied crosslinked architecture
Ruya Zhang, Charles Brooker, Laura L. E. Whitehouse +3
The mechanical competence and suturing ability of collagen-based membranes are paramount in Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) therapy, to ensure damage-free implantation, fixation and…
Nonwoven Reinforced Photocurable Poly(glycerol sebacate)-Based Hydrogels
Michael Phillips, Giuseppe Tronci, Christopher M. Pask +1
Implantable hydrogels should ideally possess mechanical properties matched to the surrounding tissues to enable adequate mechanical function while regeneration occurs. This can be…
