Abstract

The Metaniche session is an academic session conducted as a part of Nichi-In Centre for Regenerative Medicine (NCRM)’s novel Initiatives' Conclave in Healthcare Every year (NICHE), the ‘NCRM NICHE’ organized every year in the month of October by Nichi-In Centre for Regenerative Medicine (NCRM), an Indo-Japan academic Institute based at Chennai, India. The Metaniche session aims to bring together the realms of Physics, Chemistry and Biology by portraying inventions or discoveries in physical and chemical sciences which are in the pipeline with high application potential in biology and healthcare. The Metaniche session-2016, held on 22nd October, 2016 in Chennai, India was on the application of biomaterial-based sensors for application in rapid therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) systems. The session focussed on the role of biomaterials in medicine giving an overview and history of the evolution of biomaterials to suit the growing needs in medicine, followed by emphasizing the need for rapid TDM systems. The final part portrayed the development of tailor-made sensors for rapid TDM using molecularly imprinted polymers as given below. Biomaterials and Medicine It has been always medical practitioners coming first to identify the need to lead themselves and others towards the best therapy. When patient services emerged, the clinicians themselves were everybody. Dr Gibbon, when he did his first open heart case in 1950’s, he was the perfusionist and perhaps anaesthetist too. To get into its (bio) materials, through a case study, let us take a review of a simple clinical procedure. Wound closure through suturing. Its tribology matrix highlighted below (Figure 1), sketches its journey, clinical demands, scientific solutions and biomaterials thereof. The bottom line, best is still (re)searched.

34. In Situ Control of Cell Adhesion Using Photoresponsive Culture Surface

Abstract

A photoresponsive culture surface (PRCS) allowing photocontrol of cell adhesion was prepared with a novel polymer material composed of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) having spiropyran chromophores as side chains. Cell adhesion of the surface was drastically enhanced by the irradiation with ultraviolet (UV) light (wavelength:  365 nm); after subsequent cooling and washing on ice, many cells remained in the irradiated region, whereas most cells were removed from the nonirradiated region. The cell adhesion of the PRCS, which had been enhanced by previous UV irradiation, was reset by the visible light irradiation (wavelength 400−440 nm) and the annealing at 37 °C for 2 h. Also it was confirmed that the regional control of cell adhesion was induced several times by repeating the same series of operations. Further, living cell patterning with the 200 μm line width was produced readily by projecting UV light along a micropattern on the PRCS on which the living cells had been seeded uniformly in advance. By using a fluorescent probe that stains living cells only, it was confirmed that the cells maintained sufficient viability even after UV light irradiation followed by cooling and washing.

39. A Ring Torsion Apparatus for Evaluating Friction Between Soil and Metal Surfaces

Author

Yoshimi, Y and Kishida, T

Abstract

A ring torsion apparatus was used to evaluate friction between-dry sand and a steel surface over wide ranges of surface roughness and sand density. The deformation of sand near the steel surface was observed by X-radiography. The apparatus is suitable for evaluating skin friction under well-defined test conditions. The test results show that frictional resistance is primarily governed by the roughness of the steel surface, irrespective of the density of the sand.
