Nanobiotechnology and blood substitutes

Asian Journal of Transfusion Science, 2011
Sir, Nanobiotechnology is the assembling of biological molecules into 1–100 nm dimensions. These dimensions can be the diameter of nanodimension artificial cells or particles; membranes with nanodimension thickness or nanotubules with nanodimension diameter.[1] Since red blood cell (RBC) membrane includes blood group antigens, typing and matching ...

Resuscitation After Hemorrhagic Shock in the Microcirculation: Targeting Optimal Oxygen Delivery in the Design of Artificial Blood Substitutes [PDF]

Frontiers in Medicine, 2020
Microcirculatory preservation is essential for patient recovery from hemorrhagic shock. In hemorrhagic shock, microcirculatory flow and pressure are greatly reduced, creating an oxygen debt that may eventually become irreversible.
