Nanowired scaffolds engineer heart tissue

Ischaemic heart disease (IHD) and in particular myocardial infarct (MI) causes over 741 000 deaths every year in the European Union. EU researchers have engineered nanowired scaffolds to regenerate defective heart tissue and restore function. End stage heart failure is currently treated using ventricular assist devices and/or heart transplantation. However, donor organ availability is limited. In this scenario, cardiac tissue engineering sho...

Nanotech tattoo monitors nerve cells and muscle activity

A temporary "electronic tattoo" developed by Tel Aviv University that can measure the activity of muscle and nerve cells researchers is poised to revolutionise medicine, rehabilitation, and even business and marketing research. The tattoo consists of a carbon electrode, an adhesive surface that attaches to the skin, and a nanotechnology-based conductive polymer coating that enhances the electrode's performance. It records a strong, steady signal ...
