A Kinetic Photometric Assay for the Quantification of the Open-Chain Content of Aldoses. [PDF]
An operationally simple UV‐based kinetic assay allows the accurate determination of the minute proportions (<1 %) of the open‐chain forms (OCC) of aldoses in equilibrium with the dominant ring forms. The OCC‐data of all parent aldoses has been determined with this new ABAO‐assay and is fully consistent with the literature gold standard, allowing ...

3D Membrane Microstructures for Increased Efficiency in Blood-Gas Transfer. [PDF]
Oxygenators for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation are based on hollow fiber membranes. They are associated with many complications, such as thrombosis or systemic inflammation during the therapy. By implementing 3D membrane microstructures for oxygenators, the transfer efficiency of oxygen and carbon dioxide is improved, which can lead to ...

Update on the Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy
Retinopathy is the most feared complication of diabetes, compromising quality of life in most sufferers. Almost all patients with type 1 diabetes will develop retinopathy over a 15‐ to 20‐year period, and approximately 20–30% will advance to the blinding stage of the disease[1].

Diadenosine Tetraphosphate (Ap4A) Serves as a 5′ RNA Cap in Mammalian Cells
Diadenosine tetraphosphate‐RNA (Ap4A‐RNA) is found in human and rat cell lines. Its amount is not dependent on the intracellular concentration of Ap4A. Ap4A‐RNA is decapped by two enzymes, NUDT2 and DXO. Even though Ap4A‐RNA is present in the same fraction as mRNA, it is not translated. However, it is recognized as self RNA by the innate immune system,
