This chapter discusses a few of the main 3D printing technologies that are directly applicable to blood vessel regeneration.
We demonstrate the feasibility of a highly sensitive and easily applicable whole blood biosensor on the basis of simple commercially available components.
NA, not applicable; BUN, blood urea nitrogen.
This two-step method is efficient and applicable to blood plasma samples.
Tissue extraction presents a distinct set of problems not applicable to blood or body fluids.
These studies, however, show little consensus regarding a common set of risk facets applicable across blood donation situations.
We agree with Shields et al that the 'hot spot' technique, originally described by Weidner et al (1991) for the estimation of angiogenesis, might be more applicable for blood microvascular capillaries, and this approach is more subjective.
The database included patient demographics (ie, age, gender, ethnicity, educational level, and marital status), vital signs, diagnoses, prescription medications, health-related quality of life, and disease-specific markers when applicable (ie, blood pressure, urine microalbumin, hemoglobin A1c, creatinine clearance, liver transaminases, estimated left ventricular ejection fraction, and others).
*HAT, human African trypanosomiasis; PNLTHA, Programme National de lutte contre la Trypanosomiase Humaine Africaine; LNP, lymph node puncture; NA, not applicable; FBE, fresh blood examination; TBF, thick blood film; CTC, capillary tube centrifugation; mAECT, mini-anion exchange centrifugation technique; CATT, card agglutination test for trypanosomiasis.
Such methods however are not applicable to whole blood.
