Microtechnology-Based Multi-Organ Models [PDF]
Bioengineering, 2017 Drugs affect the human body through absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination (ADME) processes. Due to their importance, the ADME processes need to be studied to determine the efficacy and side effects of drugs. Various in vitro model systems

Microtechnologies for membrane protein studies [PDF]
Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, 2008 Despite the rapid and enormous progress in biotechnologies, the biochemical analysis of membrane proteins is still a difficult task. The presence of the large hydrophobic region buried in the lipid bilayer membrane (transmembrane domain) makes it difficult to analyze membrane proteins in standard assays developed for water-soluble proteins.

Biomedical Microtechnologies Beyond Scholarly Impact [PDF]
Micromachines, 2021 The recent tremendous advances in medical technology at the level of academic research have set high expectations for the clinical outcomes they promise to deliver. To the demise of patient hopes, however, the more disruptive and invasive a new technology is, the bigger the gap is separating the conceptualization of a medical device and its adoption ...

Combined Flexion, Torsion and Compression Drive Distinct Intervertebral Disc Failure Mechanisms Under Asymmetric, High-Cycle Loading. [PDF]
JOR SpineUsing advanced multiaxial bioreactor systems, this study investigated the effects of flexion, torsion, and static compression on whole intervertebral discs. High cycle asymmetric loading resulted in cell death in the nucleus pulposus and structural changes in the annulus fibrosus.

Unraveling Band-Tail Effects on Temperature-Dependent Emission in GaAsBi via Photoluminescence. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)An innovative dual‐spectroscopy approach resolves the debate over GaAsBi's emission temperature sensitivity. By combining temperature‐dependent photoluminescence and transmission spectroscopy, the method decouples the contributions of band‐tail states from the intrinsic band‐edge behavior.
