TS-064046 — Dermal substitute with engineered rete ridges improves epidermal-dermal communication and enhances burn wound treatment.
Massive burn injuries present a critical challenge in wound healing and prevention of infection. Current treatment methods are susceptible to blistering and other problems that can reduce engraftment.
The Need
Cultured epithelial autografts (CEAs) are a vital component in treating large burns, but…
TS-015075 — Novel non-contact method for healing surface or deep wounds by inducing electric fields by applying time-varying magnetic fields.
The directional movement of biological cells in the presence of an applied electric field is known as galvanotaxis or electrotaxis. The majority of experiments related to galvanotaxis over the past two centuries have involved steady electric fields applied via electrodes placed in contact with a m…
