Development of Extrudable Hydrogels Based on Carboxymethyl Cellulose–Gelatin Complex Coacervates by Hamid Gharanjig, Hossein Najaf Zadeh, Campbell Stevens, Pram Abhayawardhana, Tim Huber, Ali Reza Nazmi

“…Rheological characterization demonstrated that all CMC–gelatin hydrogels exhibited pseudoplastic behavior, with an inverse correlation between increased coacervation and decreased shear viscosity. Additionally, the coacervates displayed lower tackiness compared to gelatin hydrogels, with the maximum tackiness normal force for various CMC–gelatin ratios ranging from 1 to 15 N, notably lower than the 29 N observed for gelatin hydrogels. …”

SSNMR confirms silicate ion substitution in the apatitic structure of 0.8wt% Si hydroxyapatite by Marc-Krystelle Mafina, Rory M. Wilson, Gregory J. Rees, Peter Gierth, Alice C. Sullivan, Karin A. Hing

“…It has been hypothesized that silicon is present in the form of silicate groups site-specifically substituted in the hydroxyapatite lattice for phosphate groups, or that there may be an amorphous silicon-rich phase in the vicinity of the grain boundaries. Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) spectroscopy was carried out to view the elemental interactions using phosphorus (31P) and silicon (29Si) probes to confirm or refute the presence of silicate groups in relation to phosphate groups in the bulk material structure. …”
