Evaluation of encapsulating and microporous nondegradable hydrogel scaffold designs on islet engraftment in rodent models of diabetes
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2018-09)
Islet transplantation is a promising therapeutic option for type 1 diabetes mellitus, yet the current delivery into the hepatic portal vasculature is limited by poor engraftment. Biomaterials have been used as a means to ...
Population balance between producing and nonproducing hybridoma clones is very sensitive to serum level, state of inoculum, and medium composition
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1992-02-05)
Secreting and nonsecreting hybridoma populations derived from the murine hybridoma cell line 167.4G5.3 were each grown in batch culture in low serum and serum-free media. Under serum-free conditions, a secreting population ...
A microfluidic bioreactor with integrated transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) measurement electrodes for evaluation of renal epithelial cells
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2010-11-01)
We have developed a bilayer microfluidic system with integrated transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) measurement electrodes to evaluate kidney epithelial cells under physiologically relevant fluid flow conditions. ...
Pore-scale investigation of biomass plug development and propagation in porous media
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2002-03-05)
Biomass plugging of porous media finds application in enhanced oil recovery and bioremediation. An understanding of biomass plugging of porous media was sought by using a porous glass micromodel through which biomass and ...
Growth of Leuconostoc mesenteroides NRRL-B523 in an alkaline medium: Suboptimal pH growth inhibition of a lactic acid bacterium
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2005-01-05)
Bacterial profile modification (BPM), a form of tertiary oil recovery, diverts water from the water-flooded high-permeability zone into the oil-bearing low-permeability zone. During field use, exopolymer-producing bacteria ...
Recycling in multi-family dwellings: Increasing participation and decreasing contamination
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Human Sciences Press; Human Sciences Press, Inc. ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1995-01)
This study explored the promotion of recycling in multi-family dwellings. An experimental design investigated four behavior change techniques: biweekly postcards giving specific feedback to each dwelling unit as to quantity ...
Numerical parameter identifiability and estimability: Integrating identifiability, estimability, and optimal sampling design
(Elsevier, 1985-12)
We define two levels of parameters. The basic parameters are associated with the model and experiment(s). However, the observations define a set of identifiable observational parameters that are functions of the basic ...
Development of pure culture biofilms of P. putida on solid supports
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1991-03-15)
Pseudomonas putida biofilms were developed on and biofilm accumulation rate data were obtained for the following two classes of support materials: charged surfaces and noncharged hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces. The ...
Contaminant uptake by fish and the potential for transfer to humans modelled over time
(Elsevier, 1986-07)
A model is developed that enables coupling of contaminant uptake with the growth dynamics of fish, exploitation, and transfer and fate. Contaminant concentration in fish is a function of the properties of the contaminant, ...
