Department of Orthopaedics

Nanotechnology Lab

The lab is outfitted with state of the art robotic equipment for performing nanotechnological techniques. Some of the on-going projects include:

• Antibiotic loaded nanocoatings for infection prevention
  
• Local delivery of IL-12 for infection prevention
  
• Drug-loaded nanocoatings for rapid fracture healing
  
• Innovative biomimetic coatings
  
• Polypeptide nanoparticles and microcapsules as sustained drug delivery vehicles
