Cell Calcification Models and Their Implications for Medicine and Biomaterial Research
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Calcification, is the process by which the tissues containing minerals are formed, occurring during normal physiological processes, or in pathological conditions. Here, it is aimed to give a comprehensive overview of the range of cell models available, and the approaches taken by these models, highlighting when and how methodological divergences arise,

Sperm allocation in relation to female size in a semelparous salmonid [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2016 To maximize reproductive success, males have to adaptively tailor their sperm expenditure in relation to the quality of potential mates because they require time to replenish their sperm supply for subsequent mating opportunities.

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...

Evaluation of sperm fertilizing ability using the Sperm Quality Analyzer [PDF]
International Journal of Andrology, 1997 The Sperm Quality Analyzer is an inexpensive device which provides a quantitative estimation of sperm motility. To evaluate the fertilizing ability of human spermatozoa using a Sperm Quality Analyzer, correlations amongst the sperm motility index, the sperm penetration index (as assessed using the sperm penetration assay; SPA), and the fertilization ...
