The extracellular matrix (ECM) of natural cells typically exhibits dynamic mechanical
properties (viscoelasticity and dynamic stiffness). The viscoelasticity and dynamic stiffness of …

For over half a century, laser technology has undergone a technological revolution. These
technologies, particularly semiconductor lasers, are employed in a myriad of fields. Optical …

Viscoelastic relaxation spectra are essential for predicting and interpreting the mechanical
responses of materials and structures. For biological tissues, these spectra must usually be …

Endogenous and exogenous factors can alter the skin layer and appearance, determining
skin aging. The extracts and isolated molecules from food matrixes can be used to formulate …

Determining the mechanical properties of an individual's skin is important in the fields of
pathology, biomedical device design, and plastic surgery. To address this need, we present …

Dermal wound healing relies on the properties of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Thus,
hydrogels that replicate skin ECM have reached clinical application. After a dermal injury, a …

Background Skin elasticity is an important indicator of skin aging. The aim of this study was
to demonstrate that the SkinFibrometer® is appropriate for measuring skin biomechanical …

Skin is the primary interface between health care providers and patients and is assessed
clinically to predict physiological stability or instability. The biomechanical properties of …

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the benefits of treating diabetic foot ulcers (DFU)
through a revised procedure using the mechanisms underlying negative pressure wound …

Modern optical diagnostic techniques often require deformations of the studied biotissues for
image acquisition. This paper discusses the effect of mechanical compression on the …
