First Contact

There is increasing observational evidence for an implication of the order of interfacial water layers in biology, for instance in processes of cellular recognition and during first contact events, where cells decide to survive or enter apoptosis. Experimental methods that allow access to the order of interfacial water layers are thus crucial in biomedical engineering. In this study, we show that interfacial water structures can be nondestructively analyzed on the nanocrystalline diamond. Results open the gate to a new chapter in the design of biomaterials inspired by biomimetic principles.

Shear Elasticity

A hypothesis has been put forward that, in collagen hydrogels, there exist interfacial water layers surrounding the collagen helices. A model of interfacial water layer is proposed which does not contradict experimental data on the shear elasticity of collagen hydrogels. Such layers can exist in a loose connective tissue and prove its supporting function.
