A new study of zebra mussels from @UofTEngineering researcher Eli Sone offers insights into creating new medical adhesives & ways to prevent fouling of water intake pipes. #UofT 🌊 https://t.co/oFiXB2sMMR

Zebra mussels could point the way toward non-stick surfaces and medical adhesives https://t.co/2AwcMqwvRO

[Bryan D. James, PhD (he/him) @bdbjames]

Freshwater mussels adhere with comparable strength to marine mussels #bioadhesion #biofouling #openaccess
Very excited to share work from my undergrad @uoftmse working in @sone_lab!!!

[Sone Lab @sone_lab]

Looking closely at the sharp interface between mineralized/unmineralized collagen at the site of tooth attachment, we found that GAGs promote mineralization in dental tissues rather than inhibit it in the ligament! Read more below:

[Biomedical Engineering @ University of Toronto @bme_uoft]

A research team led by Dr. Eli Sone have discovered a new role in mineralization played by a class of molecules, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Instead of ‘switching’ off mineral formation, the GAGs promote the mineralization process. https://t.co/b3iBIqEVrD
