Study offers promising methodology to capture biomechanical behaviour of aneurysm

An abdominal aortic aneurysm is a focal dilation of the abdominal aorta, that if not treated, tends to grow and may rupture. The most common treatment is EndoVascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR), which requires patients to undergo lifelong postoperative surveillance based on computed tomography angiography (CTA) due to the possible appearance of complications. These complications may again lead to aneurysm dilation and rupture.

Using anion exchange chromatography and electrochemical detection for determination of carbohydrates

Carbohydrates are among the most widespread organic compounds in the living nature. As monosaccharides and di-saccharides, they primarily serve the direct supply of energy in the organism. In the form of oligomers or polymers, they are used more for storage of energy or information, or take over tasks as a structural element in cell walls, primarily of plants.

New technology platform digitally counts growth factors in single cells

Whether healthy or diseased, human cells exhibit behaviors and processes that are largely dictated by growth factor molecules, which bind to receptors on the cells. For example, growth factors tell the cells to divide, move, and when to die--a process known as apoptosis.
