  1. 21. Engineered extracellular vesicles for biomedical applications

    Author : Dhanu Gupta; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Nature's very own nanoparticle, Extracellular vesicles (EVs), are lipid membrane-enclosed vesicles encapsulated with diverse biomolecules and are actively secreted by all cell types for intercellular communication. The unique properties of EVs, such as stability in circulation, biocompatibility, immune tolerance, and the ability to cross biological barriers, render EVs a next-generation drug delivery tool.

  2. 22. Image Filtering Methods for Biomedical Applications

    Author : M. Khalid Khan Niazi; Ewert Bengtsson; Ingela Nyström; Lucas J. van Vliet; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Digital image analysis; Image filtering; Intensity inhomogeneity correction; Empirical mode decomposition; Particle Swarm optimization; Image registration; Computerized Image Processing; Datoriserad bildbehandling;

    Abstract : Filtering is a key step in digital image processing and analysis. It is mainly used for amplification or attenuation of some frequencies depending on the nature of the application. Filtering can either be performed in the spatial domain or in a transformed domain. READ MORE

  3. 23. Antibacterial surface coatings for biomedical applications

    Author : Saba Atefyekta; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Antimicrobial surfaces; mesoporous titania; elastin-like polypeptide; antimicrobial peptide; antibiotic delivery;

    Abstract : Over the past decades there has been a significant increase in the diversity and function of biomaterials. Today, medical practices utilize a large number of biomaterials in the form of medical devices and implants. However, one major obstacle that limits the efficiency of biomaterials is their susceptibility to develop infection. READ MORE
