Azatryptophans endow proteins with intrinsic blue fluorescence.

12 Oct 2008 Our long-term goal is the in vivo expression of intrinsically colored proteins without the need for further posttranslational modification or chemical functionalization by externally added reagents. Biocompatible (Aza)Indoles ... Read more...

The effect of geometry on three-dimensional tissue growth.

4 Oct 2008 Tissue formation is determined by uncountable biochemical signals between cells; in addition, physical parameters have been shown to exhibit significant effects on the level of the single cell. Beyond the cell, however, there is still no ... Read more...

Biomaterials in orthopaedics.

4 Oct 2008 At present, strong requirements in orthopaedics are still to be met, both in bone and joint substitution and in the repair and regeneration of bone defects. In this framework, tremendous advances in the biomaterials field have been made in the last ... Read more...
