An Orthopedic Tissue Adhesive for Targeted Delivery of Intraoperative Biologics
One emerging therapeutic trend in orthopedics is the use of intraoperative biologics (IOB), such as bone marrow (BM) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP), to stimulate healing. Here, we introduce the application of the biomaterial chondroitin sulfate succinimidyl succinate (CS-NHS) to deliver IOB in a hydrogel adhesive.

Differential Depression of Myocardial Function and Metabolism by Lactate and H+
We conclude that for similar acute contractility depression, high [lactate] induces irreversible damage, likely at some point in the pathway of O2 utilization. In contrast, the effect of high [H+] appears reversible. These differential behaviors may have implications for heart function during heavy exercise and ischemia-reperfusion events.
