Different concentrations of amphiphatic chitosan derivative (carboxymethyl hexanoyl chitosan, CHC), BMP-2 and TGF-beta 1-loaded PLA microspheres (PLA/TGF-beta 1 MSs) were co-precipitated with the precursor of DCPD. The resulting DCPD/CHC hybrid coating incorporated with BMP-2 and PLA/TGF-beta 1 MSs was designed for improving the osteoconductive and osteoinductive functionalities of Ti6Al4V. FTIR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction were used to characterize these hybrid coatings. The drug release profile, MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation and alkaline phosphatase activity were used to investigate the functionality of these hybrid coatings. It was found that the incorporation of CHC could be used as a mean to manipulate the release behavior of growth factor from the DCPD/CHC hybrid coating. In addition, the BMP-2- and PLA/TGF-beta 1 MSs-incorporated DCPD/CHC hybrid coating exhibited a sequential release of BMP-2 and TGF-beta 1 during the first and second two weeks, respectively. Importantly, the DCPD/CHC hybrid coating immersed in simulated body fluid gradually transformed to hydroxyapatite phase. Hence, the BMP-2 and PLA/TGF-beta 1 MSs-incorporated DCPD/CHC hybrid coating exhibited the best cell viability and the highest ALP activity after 14 days. The biocompatible hybrid coating with sequential release functionality proposed in the present study can enhance the osseointegration process and possess promising potential for clinical applications in bone implants and tissue engineering.

The fiber-based source, operated in 1.55 and 1.2 mu m simultaneously, was directly connected to an integrated fiber-based multi-modal system for imaging and laser micro-treatment at the same time. The 1.2 mu m radiations, within the 1.2-1.35 mu m bio-penetration window of skin, were utilized for spectral domain optical coherence tomography imaging. The 1.55 mu m radiations, highly absorptive to waters, were utilized for laser microsurgery. The new approach, which is simple in configuration and accurately controls the positions and exposure time of the laser microsurgery, shows great promises for future clinical applications. (C) 2016 Optical Society of AmericaItem type:Item, Robust economic optimization and environmental policy analysis for microgrid planning: An application to Taichung Industrial Park, Taiwan(2016-10-15) ;Yu, Nan ;Kang, Jin-Su ;Chang, Chung-Chuan ;Lee, Tai-YongLee, Dong-YupThis study aims to provide economical and environmentally friendly solutions for a microgrid system with distributed energy resources in the design stage, considering multiple uncertainties during operation and conflicting interests among diverse microgrid stakeholders. For the purpose, we develop a multi-objective optimization model for robust microgrid planning, on the basis of an economic robustness measure, i.e. the worst-case cost among possible scenarios, to reduce the variability among scenario costs caused by uncertainties. The efficacy of the model is successfully demonstrated by applying it to Taichung Industrial Park in Taiwan, an industrial complex, where significant amount of greenhouse gases are emitted. Our findings show that the most robust solution, but the highest cost, mainly includes 45% (26.8 MW) of gas engine and 47% (28 MW) of photovoltaic panel with the highest system capacity (59 MW). Further analyses reveal the environmental benefits from the significant reduction of the expected annual CO2 emission and carbon tax by about half of the current utility facilities in the region. In conclusion, the developed model provides an efficient decision-making tool for robust microgrid planning at the preliminary stage. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.Item type:Item,
