Author: Haig, James
Date Created: 2017
Subjects--Topical: Materials science, Engineering, Biomedical engineering
Description: According to the national cancer institute "In 2016, an estimated 1,685,210 new cases of cancer will be diagnosed in the United States and 595,690 people will die from the disease" and "The number of people living beyond a cancer diagnosis reached...

Title: EFFECT OF BIOCERAMIC FUNCTIONAL GROUPS ON DRUG BINDING AND RELEASE KINETICS
Author: Trujillo, Christopher
Date Created: 2015
Subjects--Topical: Materials science, Engineering, Biomedical engineering
Description: Bioceramics have been studied extensively as drug delivery systems (DDS). Those studies have aimed to tailor the drug binding and release kinetics to successfully treat infections and other diseases. This research suggests that the drug binding an...

Title: ENGINEERING BIOCERAMIC MICROSTRUCTURE FOR CUSTOMIZED DRUG DELIVERY
Author: Pacheco, Hernando
Date Created: 2013
Subjects--Topical: Engineering, Biomedical engineering
Description: One of the most efficient approaches to treat cancer and infection is to use biomaterials as a drug delivery system (DDS). The goal is for the material to provide a sustained release of therapeutic drug dose locally to target the ill tissue withou...

Title: Noninvasive Laser Vasectomy
Author: Cilip, Christopher
Date Created: 2012
Subjects--Topical: Optics, Engineering, Biomedical engineering
Description: Development of a noninvasive vasectomy technique may eliminate male fear of complications (incision, bleeding, infection, and scrotal pain) and result in a more popular procedure. These studies build off previous studies that report the ability to...
