Issue 12 of Biomaterials Science is now available to read online.
On the cover:
Antifreeze (glyco) proteins (AF(G)Ps) from the blood of polar fish species are extremely potent ice recrystallization inhibitors (IRI), but are difficult to synthesise or extract from natural sources. Here, poly(ampholytes), which contain a mixture of cationic and anionic side chains are quantitatively evaluated for their IRI activity.
Also featuring:
The development, characterization, and cellular response of a novel electroactive nanostructured composite for electrical stimulation of neural cells D. Depan and R. D. K. Misra
Combination of magnetic field and surface functionalization for reaching synergistic effects in cellular labeling by magnetic core–shell nanospheres Tina Gulin-Sarfraz, Jixi Zhang, Diti Desai, Jarmo Teuho, Jawad Sarfraz, Hua Jiang, Chunfu Zhang, Cecilia Sahlgren, Mika Lindén, Hongchen Gu and Jessica M.
