There is a significant and growing research interest in the isolation of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from large volumes biological samples their subsequent concentration into clean small buffers, especially for applications medical diagnostics. Materials that are easily incorporated simple sampling devices which allow release EVs without need auxiliary hence contaminating reagents particularly demand. Herein, we report on design fabrication flexible, microporous, electrochemically...
Electrochemical techniques offer great opportunities for the capture of chemical and biological entities from complex mixtures their subsequent release into clean buffers analysis. Such methods are clean, robust, rapid, compatible with a wide range fluids. Here, we designed an electrochemically addressable system, based on conducting terpolymer [P(EDOT-co-EDOTSAc-co-EDOTEG)] coated onto carbon cloth substrate, to selectively using simple electrochemical redox process. The composition was...
Nano-sized placental extracellular vesicles (nano-pEVs) are membrane-bound released into the maternal circulation during pregnancy by syncytiotrophoblast, which covers surface of placenta. The nano-pEV cargo consists proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, reflect dynamic function gestation. ability to biopsy circulating nano-pEVs would aid investigations in functions, allowing substantial progress obstetric care. We developed a simple clean electrochemical methodology for specific capture fast...
Abstract Materials platforms that enable controlled isolation and subsequent release of chemical/biological entities are in great demand for a diverse range practical applications. Current technologies lack good control efficiency the release, which is needed to preserve captured targets interest. Here, this need addressed by providing versatile, controllable, electrochemical capture/release interface. The interface consists highly porous electrospun membrane, electrodeposited with...
Biofouling on surfaces, caused by the assimilation of proteins, peptides, lipids and microorganisms, leads to contamination, deterioration failure biomedical devices causes implants rejection. To address these issues, various antifouling strategies have been extensively studied, including polyethylene glycol-based polymer brushes. Conducting polymers-based biointerfaces emerged as advanced surfaces for interfacing biological tissues organs with electronics. Antifouling such is a challenge....
Introduction: Thrombolytic therapy using tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) has been proven to be a cost-effective means of treating acute stroke. However, several factors lead the underutilization this treatment. This study was undertaken assess knowledge emergency nurses regarding t-PA and identify barriers perceived by them in utilization thrombolysis stroke.Materials Methods: A cross-sectional survey conducted among 30 working department tertiary level public hospital India....
