Abstract:The aim of this study was to develop an experimental protocol to determine specific and reproducible biomarkers of the oral mucosa using a combination of thermal and vibrational techniques. This works deals with the characterization of mandible and maxilla biopsies, 4 mm by diameter, from porcine mucosa in both the hydrated and lyophilized state. Thermogravimet-ric analysis was carried out to measure hydration level of these tissues and to define the onset of proteins degradation. By differential scanning calo… Show more
