大動脈弁を模擬した逆止弁を有する拍動流型VADの開発に関する実験的研究
拍動流を生成する左心補助人工心臓(LVAD)の開発を目的として,振動型ポンプに着目した.ここで,従来のポンプは逆止弁にJellyfish弁を用いてきたが,血液が弁を通過する際の剪断によって溶血の危険性が示唆された.そこで本研究では,大動脈弁を模擬した構造の逆止弁を用いることを提案し,ポンプシステムの構築およびポンプ特性の計測を行った.これを用いて送液実験を行った結果,本弁はjellyfish弁より高いポンプ性能を示した.しかし,ポンプの加振周波数によってP ...

Microbiome‐mediated plant‐soil feedbacks as a tool for resilient agriculture
Translating plant‐soil feedbacks (PSFs) into reliable agricultural management requires shifting from input‐dependent practices toward endogenous, process‐driven crop resilience. To bridge this gap, we propose a predictive framework centered on three strategic interventions: engineering the crop holobiont, diversifying the soil habitat, and deploying ...
