Surface modified of chitosan by TiO2@MWCNT nanohybrid for the efficient removal of organic dyes and antibiotics.

Considering the increase in the discharge of industrial effluents containing dyes and antibiotic resistance as a consequence of increasing the prescription and easy distribution of antibiotic drugs at the global level, designing efficient, biodegradable and non-toxic absorbents is necessary to reduce environmental harm effects. Herein, we present a series of novel eco-friendly ternary hybrid nanocomposite hydrogels CS/TiO2@MWCNT (CTM) composed of chitosan (CS), TiO2, and multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) for removal of methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) and common antibiotic ciprofloxacin (CIP) in aqueous medium. The combination of MWCNT and TiO2 improves the physicochemical properties of CS hydrogel and increases the adsorption capacity toward pollutants in the presence of different loadings. CTM hydrogel showed a specific surface area of 236.45 m2 g-1 with a pore diameter of 7.89 nm. Adsorption mechanisms were investigated in detail using kinetic, isotherm, and thermodynamic studies of adsorption as well as various spectroscopic techniques. Adsorption of these pollutants by CTM nanocomposite hydrogel occurred using various interactions at different pHs, which showed the obvious dependence of CTM adsorption capacity on pH. Electrostatic attractions, complex formation, π-π stacking and hydrogen bonds played a key role in the adsorption process. The adsorption of MB, MO, and CIP was fitted with the Langmuir isotherm with maximum adsorption capacities of 531.91, 1763.6, and 1510.5 mg g-1, respectively. CTM had a minor decrease in adsorption strength and showed good structural stability even after 8 adsorptions-desorption cycles. The total cost of producing a 1 kg adsorbent was calculated to be $ 450, which helped us determine the economic feasibility of the adsorbent in large-scale applications.

Preparation and characterization of CS/PAT/ MWCNT@MgAl-LDHs nanocomposite for Cd2+ removal and 4-nitrophenol reduction.

The present study evaluated the performance of multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)@MgAl-layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles loaded on poly-2 aminothiazole (PAT)/chitosan (CS) matrix (CPML) to remove Cd2+ ions from aqueous solution. The removal efficiency of modified CS/PAT with MWCNT@MgAl-LDHs was increased significantly compared to pure CS/PAT. The influence of heavy metal ion concentration, pH, temperature, adsorbent dosage, and contact time on the adsorption was examined. The optimum conditions for the adsorption of Cd2+ ions were 25 0C with the adsorbent dosage of 0.06 g and initial concentration for adsorption of the Cd2+ 100 mg/L at pH = 8. The maximum adsorption capacity was measured to be 1106.19 mg/g. The values of thermodynamic parameters namely Gibbs free energy (ΔG°), entropy change (ΔS°), and enthalpy change (ΔH°) indicated the feasibility, spontaneity and the endothermic nature of the adsorption process, respectively. The pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir model were selected as the best models for the adsorption process. Also, CPML nanocomposite (NC) was successfully tested for p-nitrophenol (p-NP) reduction in the presence of NaBH4. The reaction was nearly completed in 6 min. The fabricated CPML-NC could be reused for three consecutive cycles.

3D and 4D Printing of PETG-ABS-Fe3O4 Nanocomposites with Supreme Remotely Driven Magneto-Thermal Shape-Memory Performance.

This study introduces novel PETG-ABS-Fe3O4 nanocomposites that offer impressive 3D- and 4D-printing capabilities. These nanocomposites can be remotely stimulated through the application of a temperature-induced magnetic field. A direct granule-based FDM printer equipped with a pneumatic system to control the output melt flow is utilized to print the composites. This addresses challenges associated with using a high weight percentage of nanoparticles and the lack of control over geometry when producing precise and continuous filaments. SEM results showed that the interface of the matrix was smooth and uniform, and the increase in nanoparticles weakened the interface of the printed layers. The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) increased from 25.98 MPa for the pure PETG-ABS sample to 26.3 MPa and 27.05 MPa for the 10% and 15% Fe3O4 nanocomposites, respectively. This increase in tensile strength was accompanied by a decrease in elongation from 15.15% to 13.94% and 12.78%. The results of the shape-memory performance reveal that adding iron oxide not only enables indirect and remote recovery but also improves the shape-memory effect. Improving heat transfer and strengthening the elastic component can increase the rate and amount of shape recovery. Nanocomposites containing 20% iron oxide demonstrate superior shape-memory performance when subjected to direct heat stimulation and a magnetic field, despite exhibiting low print quality and poor tensile strength. Smart nanocomposites with magnetic remote-control capabilities provide opportunities for 4D printing in diverse industries, particularly in medicine, where rapid speed and remote control are essential for minimally invasive procedures.

Recent advances in chitosan-based nanocomposites for adsorption and removal of heavy metal ions.

Due to the high concentration of various toxic and dangerous pollutants, industrial effluents have imposed increasing threats. Among the various processes for wastewater treatment, adsorption is widely used due to its simplicity, good treatment efficiency, availability of a wide range of adsorbents, and cost-effectiveness. Chitosan (CS) has received great attention as a pollutant adsorbent due to its low cost and many -OH and -NH2 functional groups that can bind heavy metal ions. However, weaknesses such as sensitivity to pH, low thermal stability and low mechanical strength, limit the application of CS in wastewater treatment. The modification of these functional groups can improve its performance via cross-linking and grafting agents. The porosity and specific surface area of CS in powder form are not ideal, so physical modification of CS via integration with other materials (e.g., metal oxide, zeolite, clay, etc.) leads to the creation of composite materials with improved absorption performance. This review provides reports on the application of CS and its nanocomposites (NCs) for the removal of various heavy metal ions. Synthesis strategy, adsorption mechanism and influencing factors on sorbents for heavy metals are discussed in detail.

Introducing a protic ionic liquid from aminoethyl piperazine and triflic acid immobilized on pectin as a reusable nanocatalyst for the selective Schmidt synthesis of nitriles.

Preparation of reusable protic ionic liquid, triflic acid-immobilized aminoethyl piperazine-modified pectin (Pec-AEP-TfOH), with excellent activity and selectivity in modified Schmidt synthesis of nitriles from aldehydes and Si(CH3)3N3 has been described. The structure of the catalyst was characterized using FT-IR, XRD, FE-SEM, EDX-mapping, and TGA-DTA. The reaction demonstrated a broad substrate scope for a variety of benzaldehyde derivatives with electron withdrawing/donating substituents and heterocyclic aldehydes with yields between 85 and 96 % at room temperature. Also, the Pec-AEP-TfOH showed an excellent selectivity for the nitriles in which no formanilide was obtained. Furthermore, the Pec-AEP-TfOH revealed a remarkable chemoselectivity for aldehydes in the presence of acids or ketones. It is worth noting that TfOH as a precious superacid was immobilized for the first time in the selective Schmidt synthesis of nitriles to improve the eco-friendliness and economic efficiency of the process. Furthermore, the catalyst was cost-effective, metal-free, safe, scalable, and reusable (5 times) and its heterogeneity was confirmed by hot-filtration test.

Cerium oxide nanoparticles: Synthesis methods and applications in wound healing.

Wound care and treatment can be critical from a clinical standpoint. While different strategies for the management and treatment of skin wounds have been developed, the limitations inherent in the current approaches necessitate the development of more effective alternative strategies. Advances in tissue engineering have resulted in the development of novel promising approaches for accelerating wound healing. The use of various biomaterials capable of accelerating the regeneration of damaged tissue is critical in tissue engineering. In this regard, cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) have recently received much attention because of their excellent biological properties, such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and angiogenic features. The incorporation of CeO2 NPs into various polymer-based scaffolds developed for wound healing applications has led to accelerated wound healing due to the presence of CeO2 NPs. This paper discusses the structure and functions of the skin, the wound healing process, different methods for the synthesis of CeO2 NPs, the biological properties of CeO2 NPs, the role of CeO2 NPs in wound healing, the use of scaffolds containing CeO2 NPs for wound healing applications, and the potential toxicity of CeO2 NPs.

Bioactive and Biodegradable Polycaprolactone-Based Nanocomposite for Bone Repair Applications.

This study investigated the relationship between the structure and mechanical properties of polycaprolactone (PCL) nanocomposites reinforced with baghdadite, a newly introduced bioactive agent. The baghdadite nanoparticles were synthesised using the sol-gel method and incorporated into PCL films using the solvent casting technique. The results showed that adding baghdadite to PCL improved the nanocomposites' tensile strength and elastic modulus, consistent with the results obtained from the prediction models of mechanical properties. The tensile strength increased from 16 to 21 MPa, and the elastic modulus enhanced from 149 to 194 MPa with fillers compared to test specimens without fillers. The thermal properties of the nanocomposites were also improved, with the degradation temperature increasing from 388 °C to 402 °C when 10% baghdadite was added to PCL. Furthermore, it was found that the nanocomposites containing baghdadite showed an apatite-like layer on their surfaces when exposed to simulated body solution (SBF) for 28 days, especially in the film containing 20% nanoparticles (PB20), which exhibited higher apatite density. The addition of baghdadite nanoparticles into pure PCL also improved the viability of MG63 cells, increasing the viability percentage on day five from 103 in PCL to 136 in PB20. Additionally, PB20 showed a favourable degradation rate in PBS solution, increasing mass loss from 2.63 to 4.08 per cent over four weeks. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the structure-property relationships of biodegradable-bioactive nanocomposites, particularly those reinforced with new bioactive agents.

Lithium metasilicate glass-ceramic fabrication using spark plasma sintering.

Background: The digital dentistry, requires materials with wo opposite properties of machining ability and also enough hardness. The main objective of this experimental study was to investigate the fabrication feasibility of the lithium metasilicate glass-ceramic in partially crystalized stated using the spark plasma sintering (SPS) method. Materials and Methods: In this study, SPS for the first time was used to fabricate primary lithium metasilicate glass-ceramic (LMGC) blocks. The raw materials were mixed and melted and then quenched in water and the resulted frits were grinded. The resulting powder was sintered by SPS at 660, 680, and 700°C. Results: Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Vicker's microhardness assay were used to evaluate the properties of samples. Statistical comparison of the obtained data was performed by ANOVA, followed by the post hoc test of Duncan. Microstructural studies by SEM and XRD showed that all samples were composed of lithium metasilicate phase in a glassy matrix. With increasing the sintering temperature, the number and size of lithium metasilicate particles increased and higher mechanical properties have been achieved. However, the sintered sample at 700°C has less processing ability than the samples sintered at 660 and 680°C. Conclusion: The optimum sintering temperature for glass frit consolidation was determined by SPS at 680°C.

Chitosan-based composite films to remove cationic and anionic dyes simultaneously from aqueous solutions: Modeling and optimization using RSM.

Regarding the existence of cationic and anionic dyes in the water environment developing new and effective techniques to remove them simultaneously is essential. Herein, a chitosan/poly-2-aminothiazole composite film reinforced with multi-walled carbon nanotube-Mg Al-layered double hydroxide (CPML) was created, characterized, and used as an effective adsorbent for methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) dyes removal from the aquatic medium. The SEM, TGA, FTIR, XRD, and BET methods were used to characterize the synthesized CPML. Response surface methodology (RSM) was utilized to evaluate dye removal based on the initial concentration, dosage, and pH factors. The highest adsorption capacities were measured at 471.12 and 230.87 mg g-1 for MB and MO, respectively. The study of different isotherm and kinetic models revealed that the adsorption of the dyes onto CPML nanocomposite (NC) was correlated with the Langmuir and pseudo-second-order kinetic model, which indicated a monolayer adsorption manner on the homogeneous surface of NCs. The reusability experiment clarified that the CPML NC could be applied multiple times. Experimental results show that the CPML NC has sufficient potential for treating cationic and anionic dye-contaminated water.

Material and Methods: In this study, dentin slices (n=60) were prepared and etched with phosphoric acid. Next, they were divided into two groups: pre- and post-immersion in a simulated body fluid (SBF) for three weeks. The two groups were also divided into five subgroups (n=6 per subgroup), including the control (0 wt.% NPs); adhesives containing 1 wt.% and 2.5 wt.% (CS) nanoparticles; and adhesives containing 1 wt.% and 2.5 wt.% ACP nanoparticles. The remineralization potential and bioactivity of the adhesives were evaluated. The shear bond strength of the samples (n=18) was also assessed using a universal testing machine. Results: The present results revealed that the adhesive containing ACP and CS nanoparticles showed bioactivity and remineralization potential without any reduction in the bond strength. Conclusions: The outcomes revealed that Cs and ACP nanoparticles induced mineralization in the dentin and incorporation of these nanoparticles to dentin bonding agents could improve the bio-functionalization of dentin bond. Key words:Calcium phosphate, calcium silicate, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, tooth remineralization.

Fabrication of functional and nano-biocomposite scaffolds using strontium-doped bredigite nanoparticles/polycaprolactone/poly lactic acid via 3D printing for bone regeneration.

Bone tissue engineering is a field to manufacture scaffolds for bone defects that cannot repair without medical interventions. Ceramic nanoparticles such as bredigite have importance roles in bone regeneration. We synthesized a novel strontium (Sr) doped bredigite (Bre) nanoparticles (BreSr) and then developed new nanocomposite scaffolds using polycaprolactone (PCL), poly lactic acid (PLA) by the 3D-printing technique. Novel functional nanoparticles were synthesized and characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS: map). The nanoparticles were uniformly distributed in the polymer matrix composites. The 3D- printed scaffolds were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), attenuated total reflection-fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), degradation rate porosity, mechanical tests, apatite formation and cell culture. Degradation rate and mechanical strength were increased in the PLA/PCL/Bre-5%Sr nanocopmposite scaffolds. Hydroxyapatite crystals were also created on the scaffold surface in the bioactivity test. The scaffolds supported viability and proliferation of human osteoblasts. Gene expression and calcium deposition in the samples containing nanoparticles indicated statistical different than the scaffolds without nanoparticles. The nanocomposite scaffolds were implanted into the critical-sized calvarial defects in rat for 3 months. The scaffolds containing Bre-Sr ceramic nanoparticles exhibited the best potential to regenerate bone tissue.

The effect of polyethylene glycol on printability, physical and mechanical properties and osteogenic potential of 3D-printed poly (l-lactic acid)/polyethylene glycol scaffold for bone tissue engineering.

One of the challenges in critical size bone defect repairing is the use of a porous degradable scaffold with appropriate properties to the host tissue. Nowadays, the three-dimensional (3D) printing method can produce custom and personalized scaffolds and overcome the problems of traditional methods by controlling the porosity and dimensions of biomaterial scaffolds. In this study, polylactic acid/polyethylene glycol (PLA/PEG) scaffolds were prepared with different PEG percentages (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 wt%) by fused deposition modeling (FDM) to optimize printability and achieve suitable physico-mechanical properties and also enhance cellular behavior for bone tissue engineering and actually, this study complements previous studies. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were employed for chemical, morphological and thermal evaluations, respectively. It was shown that the adding of 20 wt% PEG to PLA 3D printed scaffolds reduced water contact angle (from 78.16 ± 3.27 to 60.00 ± 2.16), and increased surface wettability. The results also showed that the mechanical properties of the printed scaffolds were not significantly reduced by adding 5 and 10 wt% of PEG. The addition of PEG increased the degradability of scaffolds during immersion in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) solution for 8 weeks and PLA/PEG20 scaffold with 50.96 % had the highest rate of degradation. MTT assay showed that none of the studied scaffolds had cytotoxicity against MG-63 cells and increasing the PEG levels to 20 wt%, increased cell viability and adhesion and osteogenic differentiation. According to the obtained physical, mechanical and biological results, PLA/PEG scaffold printed by the FDM method can be an appropriate candidate for use in bone repair applications.

Electro-conductive 3D printed polycaprolactone/gold nanoparticles nanocomposite scaffolds for myocardial tissue engineering.

The human's heart cannot regenerate after a wound by itself. So myocardial tissue can be damaged, leading to acute inflammation and scar. To overcome this issue, three dimensional (3D) scaffolds with appropriate properties have been proposed. In this study, Poly ε-caprolactone (PCL)/Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) nanocomposite scaffolds containing 0, 0.25 and 0.5 wt% GNPs were prepared by 3-D printing by using Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technique. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FTIR-ATR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were then used to characterize the scaffolds. Also, mechanical properties, electrical conductivity, contact angle, and thermal behavior of the scaffolds were measured. According to the results, the scaffold containing 0.5 wt% GNPs corroborated optimal properties including appropriate mechanical properties, adequate wettability and suitable electrical conductivity for cardiovascular application, as compressive strength and electrical conductivity were increased approximately by 9.1% and 25%, respectively. In contrast, contact angle was decreased about 38%, which caused the scaffolds' hydrophilicity. Overall the electrocunductive 3D PCL/GNPs 0.5 wt% scaffold could be developed with the control of some parameters that could be well implemented by this fabrication method; also, the addition of GNPs to improve some properties can be regarded as a promising candidate for myocardial tissue engineering.

Electrosprayed cefazolin-loaded niosomes onto electrospun chitosan nanofibrous membrane for wound healing applications.

Chronic wounds are among the most therapeutically challenging conditions, which are commonly followed by bacterial infection. The ideal approach to treat such injuries are synergistic infection therapy and skin tissue regeneration. In the recent decades, nanotechnology has played a critical role in eradicating bacterial infections by introducing several carriers developed for drug delivery. Moreover, advances in tissue engineering have resulted in new drug delivery systems that can improve the skin regeneration rate and quality. In this study, cefazolin-loaded niosomes were electrosprayed onto chitosan membrane for wound healing applications. For this purpose, niosomes were obtained by the thin-film hydration method; electrospinning was then conducted to fabricate nanofibrous mats. In vitro characterization of the scaffold was performed to evaluate the physicochemical and biological properties. Finally, in vivo studies were carried out to evaluate the potential use of the membrane for skin regeneration. In vitro results indicated the antibacterial properties of the membrane against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) due to the gradual release of cefazolin from niosomes. The scaffolds also showed no cell toxicity. In vivo studies also confirmed the ability of the membrane to enhance skin regeneration by improving re-epithelialization, tissue remodeling, and angiogenesis. The current study could well show the promising role of the prepared scaffold for skin regeneration and bacterial infection elimination.

Cationic, anionic and neutral polysaccharides for skin tissue engineering and wound healing applications.

Today, chronic wound care and management can be regarded as a clinically critical issue. However, the limitations of current approaches for wound healing have encouraged researchers and physicians to develop more efficient alternative approaches. Advances in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine have resulted in the development of promising approaches that can accelerate wound healing and improve the skin regeneration rate and quality. The design and fabrication of scaffolds that can address the multifactorial nature of chronic wound occurrence and provide support for the healing process can be considered an important area requiring improvement. In this regard, polysaccharide-based scaffolds have distinctive properties such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, high water retention capacity and nontoxicity, making them ideal for wound healing applications. Their tunable structure and networked morphology could facilitate a number of functions, such as controlling their diffusion, maintaining wound moisture, absorbing a large amount of exudates and facilitating gas exchange. In this review, the wound healing process and the influential factors, structure and properties of carbohydrate polymers, physical and chemical crosslinking of polysaccharides, scaffold fabrication techniques, and the use of polysaccharide-based scaffolds in skin tissue engineering and wound healing applications are discussed.

A novel coating layer on zirconia using modified zinc phosphatizing method.

Yttria doped ZrO2 was deposited using an acidic zinc phosphatizing solution and the hydrothermal treatment. The coating was analyzed using a field emission-scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). A piston on three balls (ISO 6872) was used for the measurement of biaxial flexural strength. MC3T3-E1 cells attachment was evaluated by SEM, and cell proliferation were assessed using MTS assay™. SEM images confirmed that the zinc phosphate coating layer was successfully prepared and fully covered the surface. The measured adhesive strength of the coating was 79.11 MPa. In vitro cell study indicated that the coated sample had better cell morphology and proliferation. XRD and EDS analysis revealed that the crystalline coating structure indexed as zinc phosphate (hopeite) and the substrate was assigned as zirconia. The flexural strength test showed that the strength of zirconia before and after hydrothermal treatment was not affected.

Shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets on intact and demineralized enamel after application of resin infiltrant, fluoride varnish and casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate remineralizing agents: in-vitro study.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of remineralizing agents on the shear bond strength (SBS) of orthodontic brackets bonded to intact and demineralized enamel. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In this in-vitro study, 160 human premolars were divided into 8 groups, including group 1 with intact enamel as the positive control, group 2 with demineralized enamel as the negative control, groups 3-5 treated with fluoride varnish, Casein Phosphopeptide-Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (CPP-ACP) and resin infiltrant on intact enamel, and groups 6-8 treated with the same agents on demineralized enamel. Brackets were bonded using the conventional method, and the samples were thermocycled. SBS of the brackets was measured using a universal testing machine, and the adhesive remnant index (ARI) was assessed. Data were analysed with one-way ANOVA and post hoc statistical test at the significance level of 0.05. RESULTS: SBS of the brackets in all groups with intact enamel was higher than that of their counterparts on demineralized enamel, which was only significantly different between groups 1 and 2 (P-value<0.001). SBS values of groups 7 and 8 were not significantly different from group 1 (P-value=1), yet the application of fluoride varnish on both intact (P-value=0.091) and demineralized enamel (P-value<0.001) created less SBS than in group 1. CONCLUSIONS: All pre-treatment methods increased SBS of the brackets bonded to demineralized enamel, yet only the resin infiltrant and CPP-ACP produced SBS similar to that of intact enamel. Also, the use of fluoride varnish on intact enamel significantly reduced SBS.

Spectroscopic studies on the interaction of aspartame with human serum albumin.

In this work the binding of artificial sweetener aspartame with human serum albumin (HSA) was studied at physiological pH. Binding studies of aspartame (APM) with HSA are useful to understand APM -HSA interaction, mechanism and providing guidance for the application and design of new and more efficient artificial sweeteners. The interaction was investigated by spectrophotometric, spectrofluorometric competition experiment and circular dichroism (CD) techniques. The results indicated that the binding of APM to HSA caused fluorescence quenching of HSA through static quenching mechanism with binding constant 1.42 × 10+4 M-1 at 298 K and the number of binding sites is approximately one. Thermodynamic parameters, enthalpy changes (ΔH) and entropy changes (ΔS) were calculated to be -41.20 kJ mol-1 and -58.19 J mol-1 K-1, respectively, according to van't Hoff equation, which indicated that reaction is enthalpically driven. Quenching of the fluorescence of HSA was found to be a static quenching process. The binding constants and number of binding sites were obtained at three different temperatures (298, 308 and 318 K). Combining above results and those of spectrofluorometric competition experiment and circular dichroism (CD), indicated that APM binds to HSA via Sudlow's site I. Furthermore, the study of molecular docking on HSA binding also indicated that APM can strongly bind to the site I (subdomain IIA) of HSA mainly by hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bond interactions exist between APM and HSA.

Skin is the body's first barrier against external pathogens that maintains the homeostasis of the body. Any serious damage to the skin could have an impact on human health and quality of life. Tissue engineering aims to improve the quality of damaged tissue regeneration. One of the most effective treatments for skin tissue regeneration is to improve angiogenesis during the healing period. Over the last decade, there has been an impressive growth of new potential applications for nanobiomaterials in tissue engineering. Various approaches have been developed to improve the rate and quality of the healing process using angiogenic nanomaterials. In this review, we focused on molecular mechanisms and key factors in angiogenesis, the role of nanobiomaterials in angiogenesis, and scaffold-based tissue engineering approaches for accelerated wound healing based on improved angiogenesis.
