  2. Nanofiber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanofiber

    Nanofibers are under study as a possible drug carrier candidate. [9] [10] [70] Natural polymers such as gelatin and alginate make for good fabrication biomaterials for carrier nanofibers because of their biocompatibility and biodegradability that result in no harm to the tissue of the host and no toxic accumulation in the human body ...

  3. Nano-scaffold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nano-scaffold

    Nano-scaffolding or nanoscaffolding is a medical process used to regrow tissue and bone, including limbs and organs. The nano-scaffold is a three-dimensional structure composed of polymer fibers very small that are scaled from a Nanometer (10 −9 m) scale. [1]

  4. Nanofabrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanofabrics

    Depending on the desired property, a nanofabric is either constructed from nanoscopic fibers called nanofibers, or is formed by applying a solution containing nanoparticles to a regular fabric. Nanofabrics research is an interdisciplinary effort involving bioengineering , [ 5 ] molecular chemistry , physics , electrical engineering , computer ...

    Parts-per-million cube of relative abundance by mass of elements in an average adult human body down to 1 ppm. About 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Only about 0.85% is composed of another five elements: potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium ...

  6. List of bones of the human skeleton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bones_of_the_human...

    As a person ages, some bones fuse, a process which typically lasts until sometime within the third decade of life. Therefore, the number of bones in an individual may be evaluated differently throughout a lifetime. In addition, the bones of the skull and face are counted as separate bones, despite being fused naturally.

    One of the biggest concepts introduced in 3 Body Problem is the idea of nanotechnology, and, specifically, nanofibers. The Three-Body Problem book's protagonist has this as one of his many skills ...

  8. Ossification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ossification

    Diagram showing stages of endochondral ossification. Endochondral ossification is the formation of long bones and other bones. This requires a hyaline cartilage precursor. There are two centers of ossification for endochondral ossification. The primary center. In long bones, bone tissue first appears in the diaphysis (middle of shaft).
