Asparagine in Blood Plasma [PDF]
FREE asparagine has twice before been reported in animal tissues, namely, in the liver, kidney and spleen of sheep1, and, recently, in human urine2. The evidence given below shows that it is also present in the blood plasma of both man and the goat: the concentrations are, in fact, comparable to those of many other free amino-acids in blood plasma.

Modeling Of Blood Vessel Constriction In 2-D Case Using Molecular Dynamics Method [PDF]
Blood vessel constriction is simulated with particle-based method using a molecular dynamics authoring software known as Molecular Workbench (WM). Blood flow and vessel wall, the only components considered in constructing a blood vessel, are all represented in particle form with interaction potentials: Lennard-Jones potential, push-pull spring ...

Coarse-grained model of adsorption of blood plasma proteins onto nanoparticles. [PDF]
We present a coarse-grained model for evaluation of interactions of globular proteins with nanoparticles (NPs). The protein molecules are represented by one bead per aminoacid and the nanoparticle by a homogeneous sphere that interacts with the ...

Continuous Magnetophoretic Separation of Blood Cells from Plasma at the Microscale [PDF]
We present a method for the direct and continuous separation of red and white blood cells from plasma at the microscale. The method is implemented in a microfluidic system with magnetic functionality. The fluidic structure within the microsystem consists of an inlet and a single microfluidic channel with multiple outlets.
