Currently, both congenital abnormalities and developmental problems of the bladder in children, and other dysfunctions in adults, require reconstructive surgery. Such correction involves transplant action of native tissues (such as gastrointestinal segment ...
We present a microfluidic device capable of separating platelets from other blood cells in continuous flow using dielectrophoresis field-flow-fractionation. The use of hydrodynamic focusing in combination with the application of a dielectrophoretic force a ...
Introduction Recently, we introduced a new deposition method, based on Ion Plating Plasma Assisted technology, to coat titanium implants with a thin but hard nanostructured layer composed of titanium carbide and titanium oxides, clustered around graphitic ...
Fibrin aggregation is of vital importance in many physiological and pathological processes, such as blood coagulation, wound healing, and thrombosis. In the present study, we investigated the forces involved in the initial steps of the fibrinogen fibrin ag ...
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) induces damage to the endothelium, which can lead to increased vascular permeability and, under intensive PDT conditions, even to platelet aggregation, vasoconstriction, and blood flow stasis. Eventually, ischemia, hypoxia, and i ...
Coagulation factor XII (FXII) inhibitors are of interest for the study of the protease in the intrinsic coagulation pathway, for the suppression of contact activation in blood coagulation assays, and they have potential application in antithrombotic therap ...
The molecular processes based on the specific receptor-ligand interactions (e.g. immune response to a foreign antigen, communication between nerve cells, etc.) are essential for a good and stable performance of living organisms. The aim of the present work ...
This work reports the demonstration of a thermopneumatic microfluidic actuator used to determine blood coagulation time. In this new system, the detection principle is the obstruction of a microfluidic channel by clotted blood. The sample actuation is done ...
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) can be used to cause vascular collapse and blood flow stasis of the irradiated pathological neovascularisation appearing in several diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and cancer. We hypothesized that this PDT ...
Anti-coagulation treatments are required for medical conditions that become more and more frequent with the ageing of the population in developed countries (atrial fibrillation, deep-venous thrombosis, heart prosthetic valves, etc.). These treatments gener ...
