Portocaval shunt can optimize transhepatic flow following extended hepatectomy: a short-term study in a porcine model

Scientific Reports, 2022
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the portocaval shunt (PCS) corrects these unwanted changes in transhepatic flow after extended hepatectomy (EH). Forty female Landrace pigs were divided into two main groups: (A) EH (75%) and (B) no EH. Group

Production of Stable Solutions of 7,8-Dihydropterin

Pteridines, 1989
In aqueous solution, 7,8-dihydropterin is hydrated to 6-hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropterin. At neutral pH the equilibrium between these two species lies predominantly towards 7,8-dihydropterin, but autoxidation of 6- hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropterin to 7,8-
