Electrospun Materials in Neuroscience

Our Mimetix® Aligned fibres (TECL 006) were once again used as a pivotal tool to study oligodendrocytes in vitro. Oligodendrocytes produce myelin which plays a key role in the signal transduction by neurons. These oligodendrocytes exist in different populations and the authors investigated whether the location of these various populations correlates with their function. Published… Read more »

Polymer Combinations

In a new publication titled “A synergistic relationship between PCL and natural polymers enhances the physical properties and biological activity of scaffolds”, researchers at RAFT have shown the versatility of our Mimetix Air® scaffolds to be combined with natural polymer such as collagen, elastin and fibrin, with industrially applicable production methods. Their work shows how… Read more »
