    Synergistic Effect of Type and Concentration of Surfactant and Diluting Solvent on the Morphology of Emulsion Templated Matrices Developed as Tissue Engineering Scaffolds
    (Elsevier, 2022) Claeyssens, Frederik; Aldemir Dikici, Betül; Dikici, Serkan
    Emulsion templating is an advantageous route for the fabrication of tissue engineering scaffolds. Emulsions are mostly stabilised using surfactants, and the performances of the surfactants depend on various parameters such as emulsification temperature and the presence of the electrolytes. In this study, we suggest that diluting solvent type also has a dramatic impact on the efficiency of the surfactant and morphology of the polymerised emulsions. For this, morphologies of polycaprolactone methacrylate-based polymerised emulsions, which are designed for tissue engineering applications and in vitro biocompatibilities, were shown by our group, prepared using four different surfactants, and three different solvents were investigated. Results showed that the diluting solvent used in the emulsion composition has a strong impact on the performance of the surfactant and consequently on the morphology of polymerised emulsions. Increasing surfactant concentration and diluting solvent volume have an opposite impact on the characteristics of emulsions. Scaffolds with average pore sizes changing from 10 to 78 μm could be fabricated. Establishing these relations enables us to have control over the overall morphology of polymerised emulsions and precisely engineer them for specific tissue engineering applications by tuning solvent and surfactant type and concentration.

    Diatomite Reinforced Chitosan Composite Membrane as Potential Scaffold for Guided Bone Regeneration
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Tamburacı, Sedef; Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda
    In this study, natural silica source, diatomite, incorporated novel chitosan based composite membranes were fabricated and characterized for bone tissue engineering applications as possible bone regeneration membrane. The effect of diatomite loading on the mechanical, morphological, chemical, thermal and surface properties, wettability and in vitro cytotoxicity and cell proliferation on of composite membranes were investigated and observed by tensile test, atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), protein adsorption assay, air/water contact angle analysis and WST-1 respectively. Swelling studies were also performed by water absorption capacity determination. Results showed that incorporation of diatomite to the chitosan matrix increased the surface roughness, swelling capacity and tensile modulus of membranes. An increase of about 52% in Young's modulus was achieved for 10 wt% diatomite composite membranes compared with chitosan membranes. High cell viability results were obtained with indirect extraction method. Besides, in vitro cell proliferation and ALP activity results showed that diatom incorporation significantly increased the ALP activity of Saos-2 cells cultured on chitosan membranes. The novel composite membranes prepared in the present study with tunable properties can be considered as a potential candidate as a scaffold in view of its enhanced physical & chemical properties as well as biological activities for bone tissue engineering applications.
