    Design and fabrication of a stainless steel base for biomechanical testing of Wistar rat abdominal wall.
    (IEEE Computer Society, 2014-01-01) 9th Pan American Health Care Exchanges Conference; Arboleda Carvajal, Alejandro; Franco, Maurizio H.
    The mechanical property of materials allows us to know how and how their performance will then be subject to the conditions for which it was designed. The biomechanical properties of biological tissues give an approximation to loads which it may be subjected in its biological environment. The objective of this project was to design a support to allow the biomechanical plunger tests on a sample of tissue from the abdominal wall of Wistar rat. The 1010 stainless steel support was 102 mm diameter and 50 mm of high, and 40 mm diameter extrusion in the middle was attached to the Instron 3366 universal testing machine

    Comparative evaluation of adhesion formation of prosthetic meshes after intra-abdominal implantation in wistar rats / Evaluación comparativa de la formación de adherencias de mallas protésicas después de la implantación intraabdominal en ratas
    (IEEE, 2012-04-07) Arboleda, A.
    Increasingly biomaterials for the repair of abdominal wall defects are used. The aim of this study was to evaluate adhesion formation of prosthetic meshes after intraabdominal implantation to repair a surgical defect in the anterior abdominal wall. This anatomical defect was repaired by one of the three types of previously sterilized meshes: 1) fibroin 2) fibroin with polyethylene glycol and 3) commercial polypropylene mesh as control. The grip score was significantly higher in the commercial polypropylene mesh. Fibroin is a promising biomaterial for treating defects of the abdominal wall. © 2014 IEEE.
