Blood viscosity in Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia [PDF]

Blood, 1977
Patients with Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia were studied for the presence or absence of the hyperviscosity syndrome, the relative serum viscosity value, and the calculated whole blood viscosity to identify a level at which symptoms occurred. The majority of symptomatic patients had whole blood viscosity values above 8.0 centipoises.

Dynamics of blood viscosity in patients with abdominal stab wounds in the early postoperative period

Вестник медицинского института «Реавиз»: Реабилитация, врач и здоровье, 2020
We analyzed blood viscosity in patients with abdominal stab wounds in the early postoperative period. We found that these patients had increased blood viscosity starting from day 3 postoperatively.

pH‐Tunable Material Properties of Glycine‐Rich Condensates from Tick Bioadhesive

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work studies the influence of pH on the phase separation behavior of a disordered glycine‐rich protein found in tick bioadhesive. The results show profound impact on the propensity of coacervation, condensate microstructure and viscosity, amphiphilicity of the peptides, and effective encapsulation of therapeutic molecules.

Changes in Blood Viscosity With Mucopolysaccharide Polysulfate

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
We examined the dose-dependent effects of mucopolysaccharide polysulfate (MPS) on coagulation variables and whole-blood viscosity in human blood. Both 0.01% and 0.1% MPS significantly reduced levels of both fibrin monomer and thrombin-antithrombin III ...

Tailoring the Properties of Functional Materials With N‐Oxides

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The properties of materials bearing N‐oxide groups are often dominated by the polar N+─O− bond. It provides hydrophilicity, selective ion‐binding, electric conductivity, or antifouling properties. Many of the underlying mechanisms have only recently been discovered, and the interest in N‐oxide materials is rapidly growing.
