Iron-carbohydrate complexes treating iron anaemia: Understanding the nano-structure and interactions with proteins through orthogonal characterisation
Antonia Neels, Marianne Liebi, Tiberiu Totu
Intravenous (IV) iron-carbohydrate complexes are widely used nanoparticles (NPs) to treat iron deficiency anaemia, often associated with medical conditions such as chronic kidney disease, heart failure and various inflammatory conditions. Even though a ple ...
Elsevier2024On the relationship between the multi-region relaxed variational principle and resistive inner-layer theory
Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Ankit Kumar
We show that the variational energy principle of the multi-region relaxed magnetohydrodynamic (MRxMHD) model can be used to predict finite-pressure linear tearing instabilities. In this model, the plasma volume is sliced into sub-volumes separated by 'idea ...
2023Hemoglobin-stabilized gold nanoclusters displaying oxygen transport ability, self-antioxidation, auto-fluorescence properties and long-term storage potential
The development of hemoglobin (Hb)-based oxygen carriers (HBOCs) holds a lot of potential to overcome important drawbacks of donor blood such as a short shelf life or the potential risk of infection. However, a crucial limitation of current HBOCs is the au ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2023Plasma sputtering of biased electrodes in an oblique magnetic field
Stefano Alberti, Ivo Furno, Alessandro Geraldini
The surface erosion of biased electrodes immersed in a radio frequency (RF) plasma was investigated in oblique magnetic fields ranging from 0.1 T to 3.5 T. The plasma potential and density in the vicinity of the biased electrode have been measured using an ...
IOP Publishing Ltd2023Plasma biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease: a field-test in a memory clinic
Background The key Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers are traditionally measured with techniques/exams that are either expensive (amyloid-positron emission tomography (PET) and tau-PET), invasive (cerebrospinal fluid A beta 42 and p-tau 181), or poorly sp ...
BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP2023Microfluidic characterisation reveals broad range of SARS-CoV-2 antibody affinity in human plasma
Didier Trono, Priscilla Turelli, Marc Emmenegger
The clinical outcome of SARS-CoV-2 infections, which can range from asymptomatic to lethal, is crucially shaped by the concentration of antiviral antibodies and by their affinity to their targets. However, the affinity of polyclonal antibody responses in p ...
LIFE SCIENCE ALLIANCE LLC2022Proteomics reveals unique plasma signatures in constitutional thinness
Loïc Dayon, Jörg Hager, Nele Gheldof
Purpose Studying the plasma proteome of control versus constitutionally thin (CT) individuals, exposed to overfeeding, may give insights into weight-gain management, providing relevant information to the clinical entity of weight-gain resistant CT, and dis ...
WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH2022Overview of oxidative stress findings in hepatic encephalopathy: From cellular and ammonium-based animal models to human data
Oxidative stress is a natural phenomenon in the body. Under physiological conditions intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) are normal components of signal transduction cascades, and their levels are maintained by a complex antioxidants systems partic ...
ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE2022Ultraflexible flow directed device and system
Mahmut Selman Sakar, Pietro Luciano Jakobus Dirix
A flow directed device adapted to be guided by a fuid, such as blood, flow within a tubular structure such as a blood vessel is disclosed, said device comprising a proximal end (100), a distal end (101) and an elongated body (102) in between defining a lon ...
2021Image- and Fluorescence-Based Test Shows Oxidant-Dependent Damages in Red Blood Cells and Enables Screening of Potential Protective Molecules
Gerardo Turcatti, Benjamin Rappaz, David Crettaz, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn
An increase of oxygen saturation within blood bags and metabolic dysregulation occur during storage of red blood cells (RBCs). It leads to the gradual exhaustion of RBC antioxidant protective system and, consequently, to a deleterious state of oxidative s ...
