In situ monitoring of block copolymer self-assembly through controlled dialysis with light and neutron scattering detection [PDF]
ACS Macro Letters, 2023, 12 (9), pp.1272-1279, 2023 Solution self-assembly of amphiphilic block copolymers (BCs) is typically performed by a solvent-to-water exchange. However, BC assemblies are often trapped in metastable states depending on the mixing conditions such as the magnitude and rate of water addition.

Aeromonas Sobria: a Rare Cause of Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis-Related Peritonitis
Galician Medical Journal, 2017 Peritonitis is a very common complication in patients treated with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. The most common causes are gram positive cocci (part of the normal skin flora), and then gram negative bacteria, while fungi are listed as a ...

A mathematical model for fluid-glucose-albumin transport in peritoneal dialysis [PDF]
Int. J. Appl. Math.Comp.Sci. vol. 24 (2014) P. 837-851, 2013 A mathematical model for fluid and solute transport in peritoneal dialysis is constructed. The model is based on a three-component nonlinear system of two-dimensional partial differential equations for fluid, glucose and albumin transport with the relevant boundary and initial conditions.
