Radiotracers for cancer cell detection
A chromophore is the part of a molecule responsible for its color.[1] The color arises when a molecule absorbs certain wavelengths of visible light and transmits or reflects others. The chromophore...
Tissue response to stress
A biofuel is a fuel that contains energy from geologically recent carbon fixation, such as plants. These fuels are produced from living organisms. Examples of this carbon fixation occur in plants a...
Limb Prostheses include both upper and lower extremity prostheses. Upper extremity prostheses are used at varying levels of amputation: forequarter, shoulder disarticulation, transhumeral prosth...
A dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC, DSC or DYSC[1]) is a low-cost solar cell belonging to the group of thin film solar cells.[2] It is based on a semiconductor formed between a photo-sensitized anod...
Hydrogel microparticles
Discretization/manipulation of sample volumes
Guided cell patterning
Scintillation is a flash of light produced in a transparent material by the passage of a particle (an electron, an alpha particle, an ion, or a high-energy photon).
Peripheral neuropathy (PN) is damage or disease affecting nerves, which may impair sensation, movement, gland, or organ function, or other aspects of health, depending on the type of nerve affected...
Core-shell particles
The sigma-2 receptor (σ2R) is a sigma receptor subtype which preferentially binds to siramesine[1] and PB28.[2] PGRMC1 was recently suggested to be the putative sigma-2 receptor.[3] Unlike sigma-1 ...
Cell/tissue function monitoring
Polymer charge transport materials
Alzheimer's disease (AD), also known as Alzheimer disease, or just Alzheimer's, accounts for 60% to 70% of cases of dementia.[1][2] It is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that usually starts slo...
Wallerian degeneration is a process that results when a nerve fiber is cut or crushed, in which the part of the axon separated from the neuron's cell body degenerates distal to the injury.[1] This ...
Particle motion through fluid channel
Increased levels of the IGF-IR are expressed in the majority of primary and metastatic prostate cancer patient tumors.[6] Evidence suggests that IGF-IR signaling is required for survival and growth...
Flow-through tests are a type of diagnostic assay that allows users to test for the presence of a biomarker, usually a specific antibody, in a sample such as blood. Detection of a specific biomarke...
