The aim of the present investigation is to determine the ideal values for several parameters, such as the external diameter of the polyethylene liner, the Young's modulus of the cup, and the friction coefficients between the polyethylene liner's contact area and the acetabular shell and prosthetic head of the dual-mobility cup. Reduced stresses at the bone/cement interface are crucial for ensuring a well-fixed dual-mobility cup (DMC) with the acetabulum because orthopedic cement (PMMA) is the weakest component of total hip arthroplasty (THA). Four factors, such as the PE liner size, the rigidity of the cup, and the friction coefficients, are optimized using the three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) and experimental design approach (EDA). The numerical results show that the hemispherical-liner size, mechanical characteristics of the cup, surface state of the femoral head, liner PE, and shell components all influence the mechanical strength of the bone cement. To prevent fracturing the bone cement, which would render the total hip arthroplasty ineffective. The optimal values of the maximum von Mises stress in bone cement will be determined using this methodology. The numerical outcome shows that when the Young's modulus of the cup rises, the maximum stress in bone cement falls until it reaches a minimal value. The maximum stress in bone cement, however, increases as the PE liner's exterior diameter increases. Because the maximum stress is still below the yield stress of bone cement, the artificial hip joint is still considered safe despite the increased stress value.

Automatic sleep scoring systems have being much more attention in last decades. Whereas a wide variety of studies have been used in this subject area, the accuracies are still under acceptable limits to apply these methods in real life data. One can find many high accuracy studies in literature using standard database but when it comes to the using real data reaching such a high performances is not straightforward. In this study, five distinct datasets were prepared using 124 persons including 93 unhealthy and 31 healthy persons. These datasets consist of time-, nonlinear-, welch-, discrete wavelet transform-and Hilbert-Huang transform-features. By applying k-NN, Decision Trees, ANN, SVM and Bagged Tree classifiers to these feature sets in various manners by using feature-selection highest classification accuracy was searched. The maximum classification accuracy was detected in case of Bagged Tree classifier as 95.06% with the use of 14 features among a total of 136 features. This accuracy is relatively high compared with literature for a real-data application.

Collagen has been widely used in biomedical applications, mainly to develop structures (cell scaffolds) that allow cell growth and differentiation processes. This biomolecule is also used in cosmetics because it is an essential ingredient of certain makeup and in pharmaceutics for bandages to treat wounds and burns. However, the use of collagen has been limited by the ethical and moral implications of the (typically animal) sources from which it is extracted. Therefore, alternative, more environmentally friendly sources should be found to obtain collagen. Extracting collagen from fishing industry waste (such as scales, bones, and fish skin) has been presented as an advantageous alternative to obtain this biomaterial, which has also shown promising results due to its biocompatibility with human structures (organs and tissues). The characteristics of this molecule and other sources from which it can be obtained should be further studied.

The main purpose of this study is to synthesize nano-hydroxyapatite/cellulose (nHAP/Cel) and nano-hydroxyapatite/chitosan (nHAP/CS) scaffolds via co-precipitation method for bone tissue engineering due to their suitable biocompatibility, cytotoxicity and mechanical properties. The characterizations of these scaffolds were investigated by Infrared absorption spectra (FT-IR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The cytotoxicity of these nanoparticles was evaluated with bone marrow cell using the 3-(4, 5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyl-tetrazoliumbromide) (MTT) assay. The porosity of scaffolds was estimated 87%. The results indicate that the nano composite scaffolds have good morphology, tissue biocompatibility and biodegradability to be used for tissue engineering.

One of factor causing the failure of Ti-6Al-4V Extra Low Interstitial (ELI)-based material implants, does not have bioactive properties in the implantation process, thus not supporting the osseointegration process in the body. For this reason, coating with hydroxyapatite (HA) suspension is necessary. This research used the dip-coating method and added Zirconium Oxide (ZrO2) into nanosized commercial HA to be suspensions (17%wt and 20%wt) to strengthen the adhesion of the coating. The specimens were heated at 800, 900, and 950°C to densify the layers. Bioactivity increased along with the increasing calcium/phosphate (Ca/P) ratio of the HA layers in the test specimens. The specimens were immersed in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF), namely Hank’s Solution, for 1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks. ZrO2 added to the HA suspensions of Ti-6Al-4V ELI can increase the Ca/P ratio from 1.51 in the first immersion week to 1.62 in the fourth. The bioactivity level is also proven by the accumulation of calcium and phosphate on the surface of the coating. The Ca/P value close to the Ca/P ratio of HA of 1.67 is good for improving the osseointegration process in the body.

Organoid as a 3D structured model in vitro has difficulty in controlling its size. This issue becomes problematic when it is applied in a microfluidic source and sink-based because different dimension leads to different exposure to morphogen resulting in different cell fate. As a model used for biomedical purposes, this problem could lead to a discrepancy. This research is imposed to implement the forecasting method to study the dynamic of organoid growth profile. This approach could help a better understanding via spatiotemporal perspective complemented with a mathematical formula. The forecasting approach that clarifies the trend of this organoid growth by assessing whether the decided trend fits in every (or particular) stage (or not) has not been informed yet. Neural tube organoids have four different mechanical stiffness (0,5 kPa, 2 kPa, 4 kPa, 8kPa) which are documented in three days by time-lapse microscopy used in this experiment. These objects are mapped in a spatiotemporal fashion investigated in the profile and assessed by exponential trend. The actual phenomenon and forecasted result are evaluated by Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). Based on the result, the profile of organoid growth indicates that the organoid develops mostly following an exponential profile with the highest R2 value of 0,9868 and the lowest being 0,8734. Based on the MAPE value calculation it could be confirmed that the MAPE value on day 3 is the highest among the others indicating that the extended time of growth tends to have a different profile rather than the exponential trend after day 2. It should be noted that on the lowest stiffness (0,5 kPa) the mechanical properties do not significantly affect the organoid size during the development. Almost all (11 by 12 data or 91,6%) of the MAPE value is in excellent criteria (the value is less than 10%). Only one data does not belong to that classification which is in 8 kPa on day 3. Indicating that the higher stiffness the stronger effect on the system. From the axis development perspective, the organoid does not follow any specific pattern. This research could be a reference for a better understanding of the organoid growth profile in the 3D matrix environment which is nowadays become a hot topic in biomedical applications.

Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NP) were successfully synthesized from aloe vera extract and zinc sulphate as zinc precursor. Characterizations of the ZnO-NP were performed using UV–Vis spectrophotometer, XRD, FESEM and TEM analysis. The absorption peak from UV–Vis was at 380 nm while the XRD diagram displays high purity ZnO-NP. FESEM and TEM analysis showed agglomerated particles with a wide size distribution range. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) pathotype 0.0 generated a product with the size of 230 bp similar to in silico PCR results, verifying the pathotype on molecular level. Subsequently, the antimicrobial activities of the ZnO-NP against Xoo pathotype 0.0 were assessed. Xoo (108 cfu/ml) were grown in LB broth supplemented with various concentrations of ZnO-NP. Collection of samples were done at 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours of incubation, grown on LB agar and observed for bacterial growth. Colony forming unit (cfu/ml) values revealed the number of viable cells decreased with high concentrations of ZnO-NP whereas minimal inhibition was observed at lower ZnO-NP concentrations. At lower bacteria cfu/ml (103 cfu/ml), it was found that at 24 hours incubation, ZnO-NP gave comparable antibacterial effects to commercial ZnO-NP and commercial non-nanoZnO after exposure for 1 hour. However, the antimicrobial effects decreased after 48 hours. It was also noted that the ZnO-NP provide better suppression of bacterial growth at lower bacterial concentration.

Abstract. Measuring vital body signals is essential to measure basic body functions, prevent misdiagnosis, detect underlying health problems and motivate healthy lifestyle changes. Vital body signals are measured at the fingertips because the skin is thin, and the blood vessels are transparent. Visible light is passed at the fingertips, and the pulses generated are still acceptable on the outer nail. However, the body's vital signal measuring device continuously attached to the fingertip causes discomfort to the user. Therefore, in this study, it is proposed to measure the body's vital signals in other body parts. The wrist was chosen to be attached to the body's vital signal measuring device because the measuring device attached to the wrist allows it to continue to be used. This study aims to measure the body's vital signals, especially heart rate, on the wrist so that the correlation level of the measurement data is known. The main contribution of this study is built an electronic system to measure vital body signals, especially heart rate at the wrist with the help of the MAX30102 sensor that uses visible light with 650 - 670 nm. The MAX30102 sensor, which uses visible light with 650 - 670 nm, was selected for measurement. The ratio of the light reflected through the fingertips compared to the wrist. The result of measuring the heart rate signal on the wrist is in the form of a relatively flat wave so that the data sharpening process is carried out using the detrend method. The results showed that the measurement of heart rate signals at the wrist and fingertips of 15 respondents had accuration 85%. The accuration value shows that the data from the heart rate signal at the wrist is closely correlated with the data from the measurement of the heart rate signal at the fingertips. Therefore, measurements of heart rate signals, usually performed on the fingertips, can also be performed on the wrist. From the test results with a strong accuration, measurements are always taken when the hand can measure the place to measure vital signals, which is usually done at the fingertips.

The current study involves synthesis of a composite films of sodium alginate (Alg), polyvinylalcohol and NanoGraphene oxide (GO) for tissue engineering applications. Solvent casting was used to make the polymeric composite films (Alg-Pva-Go), which may exhibit a synergic activity of the components for tissue repair. The influence of various GO concentrations on the films properties was also investigated. The scaffold has outstanding physicochemical and biological properties. The composite film's high swelling degree and contact angle reveals its high hydrophilicity, making it appropriate for tissue engineering. The antimicrobial activity on Staphylococcus aureus were studied. Furthermore, the antimicrobial test showed that the films composite was resistant to S. aureus. Seeding (AD-MSC) cells into the composite films exhibited an increase in cell adhesion and proliferation when compared to the Alginate and Polyvinylalcohol film in vitro experiments, indicating that the GO has a good influence on the films characteristics, which can utilization in tissue engineering applications.

The need to develop surviving implants and bone substitutes with good biocompatibility, mechanical strength and bioactivity, without causing toxicity, immune rejection and cancer had attracted the attention of many researchers over the years. Hydroxyapatite (HA) is one of the excellent calcium phosphates and major mineral component of vertebrate bone and teeth, which considerably enhances the biocompatibility, mechanical strength and bioactivity of artificial biomaterials in the body system. In addition, it creates porous and rough coated surface that aids the cell attachment, proliferation and the growth of tissue on the bone implants. Due to its high demand in biomedical applications, scientists had developed several, simple and efficient techniques to produce HA. This review outlines several techniques of manufacturing HA and summarizes the merits and demerits of each technique. Keywords: Biomaterials, calcium phosphate, hydroxyapatite, preparation techniques and bone
