Microparticles in vascular diseases
Thrombosis Research, 2008Cellular microparticles (MP) are small membrane vesicles that are released from cells upon activation or apoptosis. They constitute a heterogeneous population of submicron elements differing in cellular origin, number, size, antigenic composition and functional properties.

Microparticles: An Introduction
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2011The notion that cells shed small membrane vesicles from their plasma membrane was reported some 40 years ago, and for many years this process was described as the release of “cell dust.” However, the past decade has seen an unprecedented interest in membrane vesicles in many fields of biology, including vascular biology and thrombosis.

Microparticles for intranasal immunization
Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 2001Of the several routes available for mucosal immunization, the nasal route is particularly attractive because of ease of administration and the induction of potent immune responses, particularly in the respiratory and genitourinary tracts. However, adjuvants and delivery systems are required to enhance immune responses following nasal immunization. This

The diversity of platelet microparticles
Current Opinion in Hematology, 2015Platelet microparticles are small extracellular vesicles abundant in blood. The present review will introduce the mechanisms underlying the generation of microparticles, and will describe the diverse microparticle subtypes identified to date. The most appropriate methodologies used to distinguish microparticle subtypes will be also presented.Both the ...

Microparticles and pregnancy complications
Thrombosis Research, 2011Microparticles (MPs) are shed from cell membranes of a variety of cells, promote thrombus formation, mediate pro-inflammatory effects and may cause endothelial dysfunction. Normal pregnancy is characterized by increased levels of MPs compared to non-pregnant healthy women but the prevalence, cell origin and the role of MPs in pregnancy-related ...

Association of microparticles and preeclampsia
Molecular Biology Reports, 2013Preeclampsia (PE) is a syndrome characterized by poor placentation and endothelial dysfunction. The diagnosis for this syndrome is based in hypertension and proteinuria presented after the 20th week of pregnancy. Despite intensive research, PE is still one of the leading causes of maternal mortality, although reliable screening tests or effective ...

Tuneable Microparticle Filters
2019 IEEE 32nd International Conference on Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS), 2019We introduce microparticle filters with temperature tuneable size cut-off and surface energy. At room temperature, the filter cut-off is $164 \pm 23\ \mu \mathrm{m}$ , and the filter is water-absorbing/oil-repelling (hydrophilic). At 50 °C, the filter cut-off is $695\pm 31\ \mu \mathrm{m}$ , and the filter is oil-absorbing/water-repelling ...

Microparticles and Nanoparticles
2008Antibodies and other affinity molecules can be covalently coupled to microparticles or nanoparticles for use in assays, affinity separations, detection, imaging, diagnostics, and even therapeutic applications. This chapter reviews the types of particles being used for bioconjugation as well as the functional groups or reactive groups that exist or can ...

Microparticles by Microemulsion
1989Microcrystalline particles of Fe2O3 having different sizes between 70 and 5nm have been synthesized using a novel three component microemulsion technique. A succession of crystal size induced structural transitions was observed. While -Fe2O3 was found to nucleate for a particle size above 30nm, γ - Fe2O3 was formed at a particle size of 5nm.

Microparticle physics is different from the physics of bulk matter. An impressive manifestation of this difference is the explosion of dust from materials that are quite harmless in the bulk state. Another conspicuous example is the blackness of colloidal gold.
