Nature has consistently inspired engineering applications. Recently, a group of researchers drew new inspirations from the vascular network and developed a new type of fluidic system named VasFluidics ...
The innermost layer of blood vessels is formed by endothelial cells, which in turn play a role in the development of diseases of the cardiovascular system. Human endothelial cells are therefore ...
When biomedical researchers need to test their latest ideas, they often turn to engineered human tissue that mimics the responses in our own bodies. It's become an important intermediary step before ...
Microplastics are no longer just an environmental concern. Doctors are now finding them in human blood and even arterial ...
Intravenous injections, such as ‘Ringer’s solution,’ are considered representative venous injections administered into the arm’s veins. Each time a patient receives an intravenous injection, they are ...
