Effect of fluid dynamics and device mechanism on biofluid behaviour in microchannel systems: modelling biofluids in a microchannel biochip separator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Biofluid behaviour in microchannel systems is investigated in this paper through the modelling of a microfluidic biochip developed for the separation of blood plasma.

Tissue‐Stimulator Platform for Electrically Stimulating Pancreatic β‐Cells for Long‐Term Functional Regulation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We present a tissue‐stimulator platform for seamless electrode integration with pancreatic tissue, applying uniform electrical stimulation through optimized design with biohybrid 3D printing. Advantageous effects of electrical stimulation on β‐cell function were observed, including enhanced calcium signaling, islet morphology, and maturation.

C-reactive protein: associations with haematological variables, cardiovascular risk factors and prevalent cardiovascular disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
C-reactive protein (CRP) has been proposed as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease; however, this association is confounded by mutual relationships with both classical and haematological cardiovascular risk factors. We, therefore, measured CRP with a

Highly Conductive and Stretchable Photothermal CuSe Fiber for Wearable Electronics and Implantable Drug Release Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The conductive and stretchable photothermal CuSe fiber is fabricated for versatile biomedical applications. This CuSe fiber functions as a reliable wearable strain sensor and heater due to its high conductivity, stretchability and photothermal efficiency.

Multi‐Responsive Dendrimer‐Hyaluronic Acid Hydrogel With Lubricating and Immunoregulatory Functions for Synergistic Osteoarthritis Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A hydrogel with dynamic cross‐links was formed by cross‐linking hyaluronic acid with curcumin‐preloaded, phenylboronic acid‐modified poly(amidoamine) dendrimers. This hydrogel exhibited excellent injectability and self‐healing ability, enabling controlled Cur release in response to low pH, high reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, or mechanical ...

Geometrical Aspects During Formation of Compact Aggregates of Red Blood Cells

open access: yesMaterials Research, 2002
In the past forty years considerable progress has been achieved on the knowledge of human blood as a non-Newtonian shear-thinning suspension, whose initial state, that is at rest (stasis) or at very low shear rates, has a gel-like internal structure ...

Whole blood viscosity modeling using power law, Casson, and Carreau Yasuda models integrated with image scanning U-tube viscometer technique [PDF]

open access: yesSongklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2017
This study presented the image scanning U-tube viscometer technique to measure the whole blood viscosity. Two different constitutive models, power law and Casson, were selected to calculate blood viscosity.

Towards a continuum model for particle-induced velocity fluctuations in suspension flow through a stenosed geometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Non-particulate continuum descriptions allow for computationally efficient modeling of suspension flows at scales that are inaccessible to more detailed particulate approaches.
