Synthesis of masked 2-amino-6-methyl-4-oxo-4H-pyran-3-carbaldehydes
Acetoacetylation of (1,3-dimethylbenzimidazol-2-ylidene)-, (3-methylbenzothiazol-2-ylidene)-, and (3,4-dimethylthiazol-2-ylidene)acetonitriles with 2,2,6-trimethyl-4H-1,3-dioxin-4-one was found to yield appropriate C-acylation products. Treatment of the obtained products with perchloric acid afforded 2-(2-amino-6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-one-3-yl)substituted quaternary azolium salts. Their reduction with sodium borohydride yielded the corresponding dihydro (in the case of benzoazoles) or tetrahydro (in the case of thiazole) derivatives, which were shown to be synthetic equivalents of the title aldehyde

Surface Modification of Polylactic Acid Films by Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Treatment
A new approach for the modification of polylactic acid (PLA) materials using atmospheric pressure plasma (APP) is described. PLA films plasma exposure time was 20, 60, 120 s. The surface morphology and wettability of the obtained PLA films were investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and the sitting drop method. The atmospheric pressure plasma increased the roughness and surface energy of PLA film. The wettability of PLA has been improved with the application of an atmospheric plasma surface treatment. It was shown that it is possible to obtain PLA films with various surface relief and tunable wettability. Additionally, we demonstrated that the use of cold atmospheric pressure plasma for surface activation allows for the immobilization of bioactive compounds like hyaluronic acid (HA) on the surface of obtained films. It was shown that composite PLA-HA films have an increased long-term hydrophilicity of the films surface
Influence of the high-power ion-beam irradiation of a hydroxyapatite target on the properties of formed calcium phosphate coatings
The physical-mechanical of properties of biocompatible calcium phosphate coatings deposited onto titanium and silicon substrates from erosion materials, which are generated by irradiating hydroxyapatite (synthetic and natural) targets by means of the high-power pulsed ion beam of a Temp-4 accelerator, are investigated. A calculation technique for predicting the rate and energy efficiency of deposition using pulsed ion beams is proposed. Their characteristics are analyzed as applied to the formation of calcium phosphate coatings
PLLA scaffold modification using magnetron sputtering of the copper target to provide antibacterial properties
Using the electrospinning method, we produced biodegradable scaffolds from poly-l-lactide acid polymer (PLLA - poly-l-lactide acid). Using DC magnetron sputtering of the copper target we modified the surface of the scaffolds. For investigate scaffolds morphology, structure and elemental composition were used scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and X-ray fluorescence analysis. The results of scanning electron microscopy reveal that scaffolds consist of chaotically located fibres. The diameters of fibres range from 0.8 to 2 μm. Initially amorphous scaffold after modification has crystalline structure. The count of oxygen and copper with modification is increased, but count of carbon decreased. For the investigation of the scaffolds wetting ability were used glycerol and water. The wetting angles for the both liquids were similarly comparable. The values for the wetting angles range from 114 ± 5° to 125 ± 5°, what indicated that scaffolds had hydrophobic properties. Testing for antibacterial features indicated that the modified scaffolds are capable to have a bacteriostatic effect. Compared to the number of bacteria cultured without scaffold (11.8 ± 1.26 CFU×104/ml), two modified samples have bacteriostatic properties (reducing the number of bacteria on 30 and 50%). Economically effective method PLLA scaffolds modification could be used for creating low-cost wound dressings with antibacterial properties
Comparison of titanium mesh implants with PLA-hydroxyapatite coatings for maxillofacial cancer reconstruction
Since 2013 physics of TPU and oncologists from the TCRI with participation of the “ConMet” company (Moscow) and the “Sintel” company (Tomsk Special Economic Zone resident) have been working on the theme entitled “Development of the composite implants for reconstructive surgery of a craniofacial areas of the traumatological and oncological patients” supported with the Federal Program ”R&D, part 1.3”. The goal was to develop the maxillo-facial implants on the basis of the transformable titanium mesh with PLA & hydroxyapatite coating. According to the Contract No. 14.578.21.0031, the team of developers had to start supplying these advanced implants to the industrial partners up to 2017. This research was supported with the preliminary market researches by the ISPMS SB RAS and the TP “MF”. The stages of preliminary market researches were: 1) research of the Worldwide CMF market; 2) forecasting the BRIC CMF market up to 2020; 3) the total Russian market (epidemiology) estimation as a sum of official calculations and statistics; 4) looking for the best foreign analogue prices, comparing their and our implant properties; 5) search for the best Russian analogues; 6) the investigation of the world patent databaseEspacenet for the last years, and finding the owners and applicants of patents of CMF osteosynthesis plates on the basis of titanium coated with PLA & hydroxyapatite; 7) comparison of the domestic implants, and making conclusions. Several variants of the meshes have got the equal quality with the best foreign and Russian implants. The closest analogues were titanium, polyethylene, PEEK composite meshes suited to the patient shape by the Synthes company in 2014, and the only hybrid titanium "Grey" implant with layers of gelatin, dextran, collagen, HAP & BMP-2 was found. This implant was produced by Russian institution, and it was mentioned in the report on clinical trials by L.A. Pavlova et al., 2014 [1]. There are no manufacturers of the coated implants in Russia. The average price of the similar foreign implants varies from 12 up to 4
Comparative Studies of the Physical, Mechanical and Chemical Properties of Hybrid Coatings for Medical Implants
In the work the physical, mechanical and chemical properties of oxide and calcium-phosphate coatings formed by the microarc oxidation and radio-frequency magnetron sputtering methods, or their combination were studied. It is shown that combining the advantages of various technologies enables one to obtain a wide range of hybrid coatings used for various strategies of osteosynthesis. The calcium phosphate coatings obtained by the radio-frequency magnetron sputtering methods were chosen as coatings on cortical screws. The hybrid coatings obtained by a combination of microarc oxidation method and radio-frequency magnetron sputtering method were recommended for intramedullary implants. For extramedullary implants, the most optimal coatings are the coatings formed by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering with an intermediate TiO[2] sublayer
Modification of the zirconia ceramics by different calcium phosphate coatings:comparative study
The aim of this study was to characterize different calcium phosphate
coatings and evaluate in vitro cell response of these materials to ceramics
implants. The physical and chemical properties of calcium phosphate coatings
formed by RF-magnetron sputtering of calcium phosphate tribasic,
hydroxyapatite, calcium phosphate monobasic, calcium phosphate dibasic
dihydrate and calcium pyrophosphate powders were characterized. Cell adhesion
and cell viability were examined on calcium phosphate coatings using
mesenchymal stem cells. The results of cytotoxicity measurements of the calcium
phosphate coatings revealed that only the coating obtained by RF-magnetron
sputtering of the calcium phosphate dibasic dihydrate and calcium phosphate
tribasic powders possessed lower cell viability than the zirconia substrate.
The coating formed by sputtering of the calcium phosphate tribasic powder
demonstrated more cells adhered onto its surface compared with other calcium
phosphate coatings
Fundamental Solutions in Plane Problem for Anisotropic Elastic Medium Under Moving Oscillating Source
In present article we consider the problems of concentrated point force which
is moving with constant velocity and oscillating with cyclic frequency in
unbounded homogeneous anisotropic elastic two-dimensional medium. The
properties of plane waves and their phase, slowness and ray or group velocity
curves for 2D problem in moving coordinate system are described. By using the
Fourier integral transform techniques and established the properties of the
plane waves, the explicit representation of the elastodynamic Green's tensor is
obtained for all types of source motion as a sum of the integrals over the
finite interval. The dynamic components of the Green's tensor are extracted.
The stationary phase method is applied to derive an asymptotic approximation
of the far wave field. The simple formulae for Poynting energy flux vectors for
moving and fixed observers are presented too. It is noted that in the far zones
the cylindrical waves are separated under kinematics and energy.
It is shown that the motion bring some differences in the far field
properties. They are modification of the wave propagation zones and their
number, fast and slow waves appearance under trans- and superseismic motion and
so on.Comment: 19 pages, Proceeding of the Conference "Advanced Problems in
