Blood - news, views, reports and blogs

Blood is a specialized bodily fluid that delivers necessary substances to the body's cells (in animals) – such as nutrients and oxygen – and transports waste products away from those...

Hepatitis B Immune Globulin Nabi

Hepatitis B Immune Globulin (Human), Nabi-HB, is a sterile solution of immunoglobulin (5 1 percent protein) containing antibodies to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs). It is prepared from plasma...

Types of laxatives

Laxatives are medicines that relieve constipation (difficulty with bowel movements). They are a popular type of over-the-counter remedy. They can also be prescribed for conditions that could get wor...

Organic Metamaterial Flows Like a Liquid, Remembers its Shape

A new material created by researchers is so soft that it can flow like a liquid and then, strangely, return to its original shape. Rather than liquid metal, it is a hydrogel, a mesh of organic molecul...

Liquid crystal’s chaotic inner dynamics

Liquid crystal displays are ubiquitous. Now, Polish physicists have demonstrated that the application of a very strong alternating electric field to thin liquid crystal cells leads to a new distinct...

Liquid Chromatography System Enhances Biopharmaceutical Workflows

Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. featured its Dionex UltiMate 3000 biocompatible rapid separation (BioRS) liquid chromatography system at Pittcon 2013. The system is designed to combine the performance a...

Romaco introduces new liquid-filling machines

Romaco has extended its Macofar LF 200 Product family with the addition of new high speed liquid filling machines, namely LF 200 FD, LF 200 FS, LF 200 FC, LF 200 ST, LF 200 SA.

Chiral separation by enantioselective liquid-liquid extraction.

The literature on enantioselective liquid-liquid extraction (ELLE) spans more than half a century of research. Nonetheless, a comprehensive overview has not appeared during the past few decades. Enant...

Liquid marble for gas sensing.

The porous and superhydrophobic shell of a liquid marble prevents contact of its liquid core with outside surfaces, but allows gas transport. Liquid marble can therefore be used to sense gas or emit g...

Hydrogen evolution catalyzed by electrodeposited nanoparticles at the liquid/liquid interface.

Aqueous protons reduction by decamethylferrocene in 1,2-dichloroethane can be catalyzed efficiently by platinum and palladium nanoparticles electrogenerated in situ at the liquid-liquid interface.

Automated liquid-liquid extraction by pneumatic recirculation on a centrifugal microfluidic platform.

In this technical note, a liquid-liquid extraction technique was performed using pneumatic liquid recirculation on a centrifugal microfluidic device. Non-contact pneumatic pumping enabled a multi-cycl...

Role of Liquid Polymorphism during the Crystallization of Silicon.

Using molecular simulation, we establish the pivotal role played by liquid polymorphs during the crystallization of silicon. When undercooled at a temperature 20% below the melting point, a silicon me...
