The effect of the chemical nature of implant materials on regeneration processes in an implant site

The literature data on implant materials for recovering from osseous injuries and defects were reviewed. Hydroxyapatite and bioactive glass are the leading artificial implant materials. Chitosan, polylactide, adgelon, and salicylic acid have found application in this area as biocompatible surgical materials that also promote wound healing and regeneration. When using hydroxyapatite as an implant material, its active groups, such as phosphate, hydroxyl, and others provide contacts; cell migration and adhesion on the matrix surface, formation of an intermediate layer of osteoid type, and fusion of bone and implant then occur. In the case of bioactive glass, the silanol groups are involved in bond formation. The study of mechanisms of bond formation between biological tissue and implant material and search for new biocompatible materials are important tasks of medical research in the field of implantation and post-traumatic regeneration.

Immobilization of lipases onto the SBA-15 mesoporous silica

Lipase is an important enzyme which can catalyse the hydrolysis of lipids and has several applications and industrial potentials. In addition, different types of lipases are used as efficient catalysts in the enantioselective esterification and/or hydrolysis reactions and produce products in high yields and enantio excess as well. However, immobilization of lipases on the surface of a heterogeneous substrate is necessary to improve its specific catalytic activities as it can be isolated from the reaction mixture easily. Mesoporous silica materials are the best option for this aim due to their high specific surface area, ordered structure, and large pore volume. Hence, in this article, the role of SBA-15 and the modified SBA-15 mesoporous materials as support for different lipases and their catalytic activities are reviewed.     

Recent Progress in Electrode Materials for Sodium‐Ion Batteries

Grid‐scale energy storage systems (ESSs) that can connect to sustainable energy resources have received great attention in an effort to satisfy ever‐growing energy demands. Although recent advances in Li‐ion battery (LIB) technology have increased the energy density to a level applicable to grid‐scale ESSs, the high cost of Li and transition metals have led to a search for lower‐cost battery system alternatives. Based on the abundance and accessibility of Na and its similar electrochemistry to the well‐established LIB technology, Na‐ion batteries (NIBs) have attracted significant attention as an ideal candidate for grid‐scale ESSs. Since research on NIB chemistry resurged in 2010, various positive and negative electrode materials have been synthesized and evaluated for NIBs. Nonetheless, studies on NIB chemistry are still in their infancy compared with LIB technology, and further improvements are required in terms of energy, power density, and electrochemical stability for commercialization. Most recent progress on electrode materials for NIBs, including the discovery of new electrode materials and their Na storage mechanisms, is briefly reviewed. In addition, efforts to enhance the electrochemical properties of NIB electrode materials as well as the challenges and perspectives involving these materials are discussed.
