ABSTRACT Introduction Pre‐dilution online hemodiafiltration (Pre‐HDF) is predominantly used in Japan, whereas post‐dilution online HDF (Post‐HDF) is more common in Europe. An asymmetric cellulose triacetate (ATA) membrane may improve biocompatibility.

The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Preparation, purification and characterization of aminopropyl-functionalized silica sol [PDF]
A new, simple and “green” method was developed for the surface modification of 20 nm diameter Stöber silica particles with 3-aminopropyl(diethoxy)methylsilane in ethanol. The bulk polycondensation of the reagent was inhibited and the stability of the sol

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...

Closed Loop Ultrafiltration Feedback Control in Hemodialysis: A Narrative Review
While life-sustaining, hemodialysis is a non-physiological treatment modality that exerts stress on the patient, primarily due to fluid shifts during ultrafiltration.

Dynamics of total extracellular water of the body during the modification of ultrafiltration after artificial circulation [PDF]
Aim: This article aims to investigate the dynamics of the total extracellular water of the body when performing modified ultrafiltration after artificial circulation. Methods: 50 patients were examined, from 1 to 8 years.
