Characterization of the mandible atta laevigata and the bioinspiration for the development of a biomimetic surgical clamp
Approximately thousand years ago it was reported the use of mandibles of ants for suture. In this sense, bioinspired components, as absorbable surgical clamps, can be designed. This study is aimed to characterize the mandible of the ant Atta laevigata in order to help the selection of candidate biom...
