Diagnostics, 2022 HIV viral load is more reliable tool for monitoring treatment throughout the course of HIV/AIDS, but the test may be expensive in resource-limited settings. Therefore, enumeration of CD4 T-lymphocyte count remains important in these settings.

Physical evaluation of lipstick contains encapsulated beet (Beta vulgaris linn.) root water extract in maltodextrin [PDF]
Pharmaciana, 2020 The natural dyes from beet (Beta vulgaris Linn) (BV) roots can be used as coloring agents in lipsticks. However, the dye has low stability in high temperature and light and can be oxidized by air.

Diversity of extracellular vesicles in human ejaculates revealed by cryo-electron microscopy [PDF]
Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2015 Human ejaculates contain extracellular vesicles (EVs), that to a large extent are considered to originate from the prostate gland, and are often denominated “prostasomes.” These EVs are important for human fertility, for example by promoting sperm ...

Isolated tumour microparticles induce endothelial microparticle release in vitro [PDF]
Blood Coagulation & Fibrinolysis, 2020 Cancer induces a hypercoagulable state, resulting in an increased risk of venous thromboembolism. One of the mechanisms driving this is tissue factor (TF) production by the tumour, released in small lipid bound microparticles.

Dispersing hydrophobic natural colourant β-carotene in shellac particles for enhanced stability and tunable colour [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 Colour is one of the most important visual attributes of food and is directly related to the perception of food quality. The interest in natural colourants, especially β-carotene that not only imparts colour but also has well-documented health benefits ...

Microspinning: Local Surface Mixing via Rotation of Magnetic Microparticles for Efficient Small-Volume Bioassays [PDF]
, 2020 The need for high-throughput screening has led to the miniaturization of the reaction volume of the chamber in bioassays. As the reactor gets smaller, surface tension dominates the gravitational or inertial force, and mixing efficiency decreases in small-

Inhalable spray-dried chondroitin sulphate microparticles: effect of different solvents on particle properties and drug activity [PDF]
, 2020 Spray-drying stands as one of the most used techniques to produce inhalable microparticles, but several parameters from both the process and the used materials affect the properties of the resulting microparticles.

Microparticles and Fibrinolysis [PDF]
Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2016 Microparticles (MPs) are submicronic vesicles which are formed by budding of the cellular membrane of virtually any cell type in response to cell activation or apoptosis. Both circulating MPs and MPs generated within tissues harbor molecules with a large repertoire of biological activities and transfer material to target cells.

Cancer Medicine, 2023 Vesicles, also known as “microparticles”, are vesicle‐like structures that are released outside the cell in a “sprouting” manner when the cytoskeleton is changed during cell activation or apoptosis, with a diameter of about 100–1000 nm, and are carriers ...
