Acceptability of blood and blood substitutes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, 2008
Abstract.Alternatives to donor blood have been developed in part to meet increasing demand. However, new biotechnologies are often associated with increased perceptions of risk and low acceptance. This paper reviews developments of alternatives and presents data, from a field‐based experiment in the UK and Holland, on the risks and acceptance of donor ...

Hemoglobin-Based Blood Substitutes and the Treatment of Sickle Cell Disease: More Harm than Help? [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2017
Intense efforts have been made by both industry and academia over the last three decades to produce viable hemoglobin (Hb)-based oxygen carriers (HBOCs), also known as “blood substitutes”.

Nanobiotechnology and blood substitutes [PDF]

open access: yesAsian 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 ...

Hemoglobin‐Related Biomaterials and their Applications

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, 2023
Hemoglobin (Hb) is a physiological oxygen‐transport metalloprotein present in the red blood cells. With the in‐depth study, many functions of Hb are developed, and kinds of Hb‐related biomaterials are applied for biomedical therapeutics in the past ...

Research of storable and ready-to-use artificial red blood cells (hemoglobin vesicles) for emergency medicine and other clinical applications

open access: yesFrontiers in Medical Technology, 2022
Hemoglobin (Hb) is the most abundant protein in blood, with concentration of about 12–15 g/dl. The highly concentrated Hb solution (35 g/dl) is compartmentalized in red blood cells (RBCs).

Facing Trauma and Surgical Emergency in Space: Hemorrhagic Shock

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Although the risk of trauma in space is low, unpredictable events can occur that may require surgical treatment. Hemorrhage can be a life-threatening condition while traveling to another planet and after landing on it. These exploration missions call for
