A Novel Ti3C2 Mxene - HAP clay based Scaffold Sensor for Cancer Diagnosis and Tissue Regeneration (RFT749)
Invention Summary
The primary intention is to pioneer the development of an innovative 3D printed scaffold sensor incorporating Ti3C2Tx MXene/HAP clay-based nanocomposites, which can achieve real-time monitoring of the circulating process of cancer cells to cancerous tumors at the bone site, paving the way for advancements in cancer treatment and delaying metastases
Benefits
Excellent biocompatibility and large specific surface area make them ideal for integration into biological systems, particularly in the context of tissue engineering
Adjustable high levels of electro-conductibility and mechanical properties make them well-suited for the development of sensors and ink materials for 3D printing.
Unique ion-rich surface for polymer interaction that can facilitate easy interaction with polymers to form functional nanocomposites. These are pivotal for creating electrically conductive scaffold sensors for real-time evaluation of tumor cell-bone interactions.
These sensors can offer real-time insights into the impact of tumors on osteogenesis, monitor responses to new drugs, and curtail tumor formation and cancer metastases.
Applications
- Real-time capture and evaluation of the intricate process of cancer cells circulating to cancerous tumors at the bone site.
- Tumor formation control.
- Improving cancer treatment and delaying metastases.
