Transferrin Purification, Biophysical Characterization, and Lung Biodistribution in Sickle Cell Disease Mice

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plasma transferrin (Tf) is the transport protein central to the process of iron recycling and metabolism. Holo‐Tf serves as the body's pool of ferric iron, facilitating transport from tissues such as the intestine, liver, spleen, and finally bone marrow, where iron is incorporated into erythropoiesis.

Enhanced Hemocompatibility via Bivalirudin and Bicarbonate as Alternative to Heparin in a Catheter‐Based Axial‐Flow System

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cardiovascular therapeutic devices typically require systemic heparin due to underlying thrombotic risk. The Impella axial flow system further relies on internal perfusion with either a heparin‐containing or sodium bicarbonate purge solution during operation.
