Micropatterned Structures for Studying the Mechanics of Biological Polymers
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science + Business Media, Inc., 2005-03)
Studying the mechanics of nanometer-scale biomolecules presents many challenges; these include maintaining light microscopy image quality and avoiding interference with the laser used for mechanical manipulation, that is, ...
The Synthesis and Testing of Anti-Cancer Therapeutic Nanodevices
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2001-03)
Nanotechnology provides the sized materials that can be synthesized and function in the same general size range and Biologic structures. We have attempted to develop forms of anticancer therapeutics based on nanomaterials. ...
Smart HIV Testing System
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Biomedical Engineering Society ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2005-06)
The quick HIV testing method called “MiraWell Rapid HIV Test” uses a specialized testing kit to determine whether an individual’s blood is contaminated with the HIV virus or not. When a drop of blood is placed on the center ...
Development and characterization of a canine oral mucosa equivalent in a serum-free environment
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2004-10-01)
The objectives of this study were to develop a serum-free system for culturing canine oral keratinocytes, the construction and characterization of a canine ex vivo produced oral mucosa equivalent (EVPOME), and transduction ...
The effect of cesium-containing leucite additions on the thermal and mechanical properties of two leucite-based porcelains
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2004-05-15)
It has been demonstrated that a Cs 2 O-stabilized leucite porcelain was susceptible to a stress-induced phase transformation, but toughening was not observed. 1 It was hypothesized that if Cs 2 O-stabilized leucite core ...
Comparison of two functional kappa light‐chain transcripts amplified from a hybridoma
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Humana Press, 2013-05)
Three heavy‐chain and three kappa (κ)‐chain transcripts were amplified from hybridoma cells secreting a monoclonal antibody (m A b) against transferrin receptor. Sequence analysis via IMGT / V ‐ QUEST yielded the ...
Growth of continuous bonelike mineral within porous poly(lactide- co -glycolide) scaffolds in vitro
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2000-04)
Strategies to engineer bone have focused on the use of natural or synthetic degradable materials as scaffolds for cell transplantation or as substrates to guide bone regeneration. The basic requirements of the scaffold ...
A Probabilistic Model of Glenohumeral External Rotation Strength for Healthy Normals and Rotator Cuff Tear Cases
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, Inc., 2006-03)
The reigning paradigm of musculoskeletal modeling is to construct deterministic models from parameters of an “average” subject and make predictions for muscle forces and joint torques with this model. This approach is ...
Use of Air-Liquid Two-Phase Flow in Hydrophobic Microfluidic Channels for Disposable Flow Cytometers
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2002-05)
This paper describes a disposable flow cytometer that uses an air-liquid two-phase microfluidic system to produce a focused high-speed liquid sample stream of particles and cells. The susceptibility of thin liquid columns ...
Degradable and injectable poly(aldehyde guluronate) hydrogels for bone tissue engineering
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2001-08)
Degradable and injectable hydrogels may be ideal for bone-tissue engineering, especially in the craniofacial region because of the ease of access for injection. Alginate hydrogels potentially could be used as injectable ...
