Collagen is used as a model system to study the structural effects ofthe fixative dimethylsuberimidate (DMS) on a protein. Using reconstituted fibrils of type I calf skin collagen (of known amino acid sequence), electron-optical data from positive staining patterns were compared with chemical data b

Bystander effects, whereby cells that are not directly exposed to ionizing radiation exhibit adverse biological effects, have been observed in a number of experimental systems. A novel stochastic model of the radiation-induced bystander effect is developed that takes account of spatial location, cel
## Abstract A novel artificial nerve conduit was developed and its efficiency was evaluated on the basis of promotion of peripheral nerve regeneration across an 80βmm gap in dogs. The nerve conduit was made of a polyglycolic acidβcollagen tube filled with lamininβsoaked collagen sponge. Conduits fi
## Abstract One of the main problems in healthcare is the loss of tissues resulting from diseases, postβsurgery complications or trauma. As a result there is a need for biomaterials designed to promote tissue regeneration and improve wound healing. This study assessed the effect of crosslinking of
