Metabolite Characterization in Peritoneal Dialysis Effluent Using High-resolution 1H and 1H-13C NMR Spectroscopy [PDF]

, 2014
Metabolite analysis of peritoneal dialysis (PD) effluent may provide information regarding onset and progression of complications associated with prolonged PD therapy. In this context, the NMR detectable small metabolites of PD effluent samples were characterized using high resolution 1H and 1H-13C NMR spectroscopy.

Biocompatibility of Water‐Dispersible Pristine Graphene and Graphene Oxide Using a Close‐to‐Human Animal Model: A Pilot Study on Swine

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene‐based materials are attracting considerable interest for biomedical applications. Analysis of their biocompatibility is required before their clinical translation, and swine represents an excellent close‐to‐human model. This study evaluates the toxicological and immunological impact of pristine graphene and graphene oxide through a compendium ...

Development of a Deep Learning System for Intra-Operative Identification of Cancer Metastases [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
For several cancer patients, operative resection with curative intent can end up in early recurrence of the cancer. Current limitations in peri-operative cancer staging and especially intra-operative misidentification of visible metastases is likely the main reason leading to unnecessary operative interventions in the affected individuals.
