Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Supported lipid bilayers coupled with multielectrode array devices offer significant promise for pathogen–host cell membrane interaction studies. This work demonstrates, for the first time, the compatibility of this platform with biological fluids, in this case whole human blood, essential for any future point‐of‐care applications; as well as its ...

Medicine, 2000 Abstract Anticoagulation prevents pathological clot formation (e.g. on heart valves or chambers) and stops propagation and embolization of clots already developed in veins. The type, intensity and duration of anticoagulation depend on the indication. About 1.8% of the UK population requires anticoagulation. The two main anticoagulant drugs are heparin

A Wireless Soft Optical Blood Sensor for Colonoscopy
Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.This works presents an “add‐on” wireless soft optical blood sensor for the traditional colonoscopy. It can reliably detect bleeding behind the colonoscope's distal tip camera via optical absorption, without optical fibers, and wirelessly transmit data to the processor.
