12th IUPAC International Conference on Novel Materials and their Synthesis (NMS-XII), is held during 14-19 October, 2016 at Hunan Agriculture University together with Nanjing Tech University, Fudan University and University of Technology, Sydney.
Hunan Agriculture University is located at Changsha City, Hunan Province, China. It is known for its world-renowned achievements in the development of agricultural products such as hybrid rice, gardening and horticulture, and plant protection. Its history can be dated back to 1903.
Changsha is a city filled with modern and tradition. The name of “Changsha” was first seen in the West Zhou Dynasty, about 3000 years ago. It is also famous for foot massage over the world...

Here we demonstrate a new developed method for depositing Ti3C2Tx MXenes onto hydrophobic electrospun PCL membranes using oxygen plasma treatment. These novel patches hold tremendous potential for providing mechanical support to damaged heart tissue and enabling electrical signal transmission,thereby mimicking the crucial electroconductivity required for normal cardiac function. After a detailed investigation of scaffold-to-cell interplay, including electrical stimulation, novel technology has the potential for clinical application not only for cardiac regeneration, but also as neural and muscular tissue substitutes.
