Abstract
Osteoconductive silk fibroin (SF) binders were fabricated for the bone repair of an alveolar cleft defect. Binders were prefigureared by mixing different ratios of a mixture of random coils and SF aggregation with SF fibrils: 100:0 (SFB100), 75:25 (SFB75), 50:50 (SFB50), 25:75 (SFB25), and 0:100 (SFB0). The gelation, molecular organization, structures, topography, and morphology of the binders were characterized and observed. Their physical, mechanical, and biological properties were tested. The SF binders showed gelation via self-assembly of SF aggregation and fibrillation. SFB75, SFB50, and SFB25 had molecular formation via the amide groups and showed more structural stability than SFB100. The morphology of SFB0 demonstrated the largest pore size. SFB0 showed a lowest hydrophilicity. SFB100 showed the highest SF release. SFB25 had the highest maximum load. SFB50 exhibited the lowest elongation at break. Binders with SF fibrils showed more cell viability and higher cell proliferation, ALP activity, calcium deposition, and protein synthesis than without SF fibrils. Finally, the results were deduced: SFB25 demonstrated suitable performance that is promising for the bone repair of an alveolar cleft defect.

Abstract
Bioadhesive membranes with controllable and reversible underwater adhesion are desirable for several biomedical applications ranging from biosensing, drug/therapeutic delivery, and tissue regeneration. Here, we present dual soft mucosal and hard bone/enamel tissue adhesive nanofiber membranes composed of chitosan and pectin derivatives for pH-controlled delivery of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) in the oral cavity. Ex vivo testing with porcine esophagus (soft mucosal mimic) indicated a 2-fold increase in the mucoadhesion of chitosan membranes with 0.05 wt % oxidized pectin coating, while the uncoated membranes exhibited 3-4-fold stronger adhesion to hydroxyapatite discs (enamel/hard bone mimic) compared to the coated membranes. The former is attributed to a synergistic interaction of surface nanofiber topography, intermolecular hydrogen bonding, and aldehyde-amine chemistry between surface polar groups and mucosal proteins, while the latter may arise from electrostatic interactions between cationic amines (-NH3+) in chitosan and anionic phosphates (-PO43-) in hydroxyapatite. Further, the dual hard-soft oral tissue adhesive nanofiber membranes loaded with cationic amphipathic AMPs (D-GL13K and IDR-1018) elicited pH-responsive AMP delivery and antimicrobial action comparable to chlorhexidine (CHX) against oral streptococci. Concurrently, the AMP loaded membranes were cytocompatible to both soft epithelial tissue-derived human oral keratinocytes and hard calvarial murine pre-osteoblast cells. We envision these membranes to function as adhesive gingival grafts and guided bone regeneration (GBR) membranes at the hard-soft tissue interface while simultaneously protecting against oral infections.

Abstract
Paper has been a popular material of choice for biomedical applications including for bioanalysis and cell biology studies. Regular cellulose paper-based devices, however, have several key limitations including slow fluid flow; large sample retention in the paper matrix for microfluidic paper-based analytical device (μPAD) application; serious solvent evaporation issues, and contamination and poor control of experimental conditions for cell culture. Here, we describe the development of two novel platforms, nanopaper-based analytical devices (nanoPADs) and nanofibrillated adherent cell-culture platforms (nanoFACEs), that use nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) paper, simply called nanopaper, as the substrate material to create transparent, pump-free and hollow-channel paper-based microfluidic devices. Due to the natural hydrophilicity and nanoscale pore size of nanopaper, the hollow-channel microfluidic devices can realize a totally pump-free flow without any complicated surface chemical functionalization on the nanopaper. Experimental results showed that within a certain range, larger hollow channel size leads to faster pump-free flows. Different from previous designs of paper-based hollow-channel microfluidic devices, the high transparency of the nanopaper substrate enabled the integration of various optical sensing and imaging technologies together with the nanoPADs and nanoFACEs. As proof-of-concept demonstrations, we demonstrated the use of nanoPADs for colorimetric sensing of glucose and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS)-based detection of environmental pollutants and applied the nanoFACEs to the culture of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). These demonstrations show the great promise of nanoPADs and nanoFACEs for biomedical applications such as chemical/bioanalysis and cell biology studies.

Abstract
In the treatment of severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), decompressive craniectomy is commonly used to remove a large portion of calvarial bone to allow unimpeded brain swelling. Hydrogels have the potential to revolutionize TBI treatment by permitting a single-surgical intervention, remaining pliable during brain swelling, and tuned to regenerate bone after swelling has subsided. With this motivation, our goal is to present a pliable material capable of regenerating calvarial bone across a critical size defect. We therefore proposed the use of a methacrylated solubilized decellularized cartilage (MeSDCC) hydrogel encapsulating synthetic osteogenic particles of hydroxyapatite nanofibers, bioglass microparticles, or added rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (rMSCs) for bone regeneration in critical-size rat calvarial defects. Fibrin hydrogels were employed as a control material for the study. MeSDCC hydrogels exhibited sufficient rheological performance for material placement before crosslinking ([Formula: see text] > 500 Pa), and sufficient compressive moduli post-crosslinking (E > 150 kPa). In vitro experiments suggested increased calcium deposition for cells seeded on the MeSDCC material; however, in vivo bone regeneration was minimal in both MeSDCC and fibrin groups, even with colloidal materials or added rMSCs. Minimal bone regeneration in the MeSDCC test groups may potentially be attributed to cartilage solubilization after decellularization, in which material signals may have degraded from enzymatic treatment. Looking to the future, an improvement in the bioactivity of the material will be crucial to the success of bone regeneration strategies for TBI treatment.

Abstract
Bone cements for treatment of fractures at weight-bearing sites are subjected to dynamic physiological loading from daily activities. An ideal bone cement rapidly sets after injection, exhibits bone-like strength, stimulates osteogenic differentiation of endogenous cells, and resorbs at a rate aligned with patient biology. However, currently available materials fall short of these targeted properties. Nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (nHA) enhances osteogenic differentiation, new bone formation, and osteoclast differentiation activity compared to amorphous or micron-scale crystalline hydroxyapatite. However, the brittle mechanical properties of nHA precludes its use in treatment of weight-bearing bone defects. In this study, we report settable nHA-poly(ester urethane) (PEUR) nanocomposites synthesized from nHA, lysine triisocyanate (LTI), and poly(caprolactone) triol via a solvent-free process. The nanocomposites are easily mixed and injected using a double-barrel syringe, exhibit mechanical properties exceeding those of conventional bone cements, enhance mineralization of osteoprogenitor cells in vitro, and undergo osteoclast-mediated degradation in vitro. This combination of properties cannot be achieved using other technologies, which underscores the potential of nHA-PEUR nanocomposites as a new approach for promoting bone healing at weight-bearing sites.

Abstract
Bioactive glass (BG)-containing fiber-reinforced composite implants, typically screw-retained, have started to be used clinically. In this study, we tested the mechanical strength of composites formed by a potential implant adhesive of n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate glue and BG S53P4 particles. Water immersion for 3, 10 or 30 days had no adverse effect on the compression strength. When cyanoacrylate glue-BG-composites were subjected to simulated body fluid immersion, the average pH rose to 7.52 (SD 0.066) from the original value of 7.35 after 7 days, and this pH increment was smaller compared to BG particle-group or fibrin glue-BG-composite group. Based on these results n-butyl-2 cyanoacrylate glue, by potentially producing a strong adhesion, might be considered a possible alternative for fixation of BG S53P4 containing composite implants. However, the mechanical and solubility properties of the cyanoacrylate glue may not encourage the use of this tissue adhesive with BG particles.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bone graft is a very common procedure that is performed when bone volume needs to be increased before a dental implant. Screws and miniplates are the clinical standards for osteosynthesis. However, some disadvantages for this method have been reported, including artifacts on radiological images, infection, screw loosening, and the need to remove screws that interfere with the dental implants. Bone adhesives are a promising alternative for bone graft surgery. PURPOSE The aim of this study was to compare the shear bond strength of two cyanoacrylate-based adhesives and titanium screws for bone graft fixation. METHODS Pig jaw samples were cut into rectangular bars (2 × 6 × 20 mm) and bonded with a 5-mm overlap of N-butyl cyanoacrylate and ethyl cyanoacrylate, and 1.5-mm titanium screws were inserted into the center of the contact area. The blocks were fixed on a shear bond strength device that was coupled to a universal testing machine. The maximum force (N) was recorded on a computer and divided by the bonded area (in mm(2)) in order to calculate the bond strength (MPa). The data were statistically analyzed with ANOVA and Tukey's test (α = 0.05). RESULTS The shear bond strengths of the screws were significantly higher than both cyanoacrylate adhesives, which presented statistically similar bond strength means, and have the biomechanical potential to be used for bone fixation. CONCLUSIONS Ethyl cyanoacrylate is an inexpensive adhesive that has multiple purposes and can be considered as an alternative for bone fixation.

Abstract
Despite cyanoacrylate's numerous advantages such as good cosmetic results and fast application for first aid, drawbacks such as brittleness and local tissue toxicity have limited their applicability. In this study, to improve both the biocompatibility and mechanical properties of cyanoacrylate, allyl 2-cyanoacrylate (AC) was pre-polymerized and mixed with poly(L-lactide-co-ɛ-caprolactone) (PLCL, 50:50) as biodegradable elastomer. For various properties of pre-polymerized AC (PAC)/PLCL mixtures, bond strength, elasticity of flexure test as bending recovery, cell viability, and in vivo test using rat were conducted and enhanced mechanical properties and biocompatibility were confirmed. Especially, optimal condition for pre-polymerization of AC was determined to 150°C for 40min through cytotoxicity test. Bond strength of PAC/PLCL mixture was decreased (over 10 times) with increasing of PLCL. On the other hand, biocompatibility and flexibility were improved than commercial bio-glue. Optimal PAC/PLCL composition (4g/20mg) was determined through these tests. Furthermore, harmful side effects and infection were not observed by in vivo wound healing test. These results indicate that PAC/PLCL materials can be used widely as advanced bio-glues in various fields.

Abstract
The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to assess the effectiveness of fibrin sealants in achieving haemostasis and wound closure following mandibular third molar extraction, in comparison with conventional suturing. Thirty patients with bilateral mandibular third molar impactions were recruited for the study. Using a split-mouth study design, wound closure following extraction was done using fibrin sealant on the study side and suturing on the control side. Sample allocation was done by simple randomization. The primary outcome measures were (1) the time taken to achieve wound closure and haemostasis and (2) postoperative mouth opening, pain, and swelling. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics and paired t-tests (P<0.05). IBM SPSS software (v.20.0) was used for the data analysis. The study group demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in duration to achieve haemostasis (1.2 vs. 251.9s; P<0.001) and wound closure (152.8 vs. 328.8s; P<0.001) in comparison with the control group. The study group also exhibited significantly reduced pain scores (2.0 vs. 3.5; P<0.001) and increased post-surgical mouth opening (P<0.001). No adverse effects of fibrin sealant were observed. In conclusion, fibrin sealant is a superior intraoral wound closure and haemostatic agent and a worthy alternative to suturing.

Abstract
Injectable and settable bone grafts offer significant advantages over pre-formed implants due to their ability to be administered using minimally invasive techniques and to conform to the shape of the defect. However, injectable biomaterials present biocompatibility challenges due to the potential toxicity and ultimate fate of reactive components that are not incorporated in the final cured product. In this study the effects of stoichiometry and triethylenediamine (TEDA) catalyst concentration on the reactivity, injectability, and biocompatibility of two component lysine-derived polyurethane (PUR) biocomposites were investigated. Rate constants were measured for the reactions of water (a blowing agent resulting in the generation of pores), polyester triol, dipropylene glycol (DPG), and allograft bone particles with the isocyanate-terminated prepolymer using an in situ attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy technique. Based on the measured rate constants, a kinetic model predicting the conversion of each component with time was developed. Despite the fact that TEDA is a well-known urethane gelling catalyst, it was found to preferentially catalyze the blowing reaction with water relative to the gelling reactions by a ratio >17:1. Thus the kinetic model predicted that the prepolymer and water proceeded to full conversion, while the conversions of polyester triol and DPG were <70% after 24h, which was consistent with leaching experiments showing that only non-cytotoxic polyester triol and DPG were released from the reactive PUR at early time points. The PUR biocomposite supported cellular infiltration and remodeling in femoral condyle defects in rabbits at 8weeks, and there was no evidence of an adverse inflammatory response induced by unreacted components from the biocomposite or degradation products from the cured polymer. Taken together, these data underscore the utility of the kinetic model in predicting the biocompatibility of reactive biomaterials.

Abstract
Cyanoacrylate tissue glue has been widely used in different surgical applications. It is easy to apply and can save considerable time and effort. Reports including series of oral and maxillofacial cases are yet to be well documented. We report our experience using cyanoacrylate tissue glue in the head and neck region in 165 patients. We have used it for indications including orbital floor graft fixation, cleft lip and palate repair, oral dressing, skin graft fixation, nasal splinting, immobilisation of traumatised teeth, management of chyle leak during neck dissection and wound closure. We have not had any complications from using cyanoacrylate. It is found to be safe and effective in different indications it is used for without undue hazards. The role of cyanoacrylate in oral and maxillofacial surgery needs further research.
