1. Expansion of cord blood stem cells in fibronectin-coated microfluidic bioreactor
ABSTRACT Background: Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell transplantation is the main treatment option for hematological malignancies and disorders. One strategy to solve the problem of low stem cell doses used in transplantation is pre-transplant expansion. We hypothesized that using fibronectin-coated microfluidic channels would expand HSPCs and keep self-r

2. Downregulation of CSF-derived miRNAs miR-142-3p and miR-17-5p may be associated with post-dural puncture headache in pregnant women upon spinal anesthesia
Abstract Background: Postdural puncture headache (PDPH) develops due to puncture of the dura mater. The risk factors that influence PDPH incidence are Body Mass Index (BMI), sex, spinal needle type, history of headache, and loss of Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume, yet there is no consensus on these risk factors. The pathophysiology of PDPH is poorly unders

3. Single-Layered Paper-Based Microfluidic Devices Made by Paint-Spraying Technique with Great Barrier Resistance for Colorimetric Assays
The single-layered paint-spraying paper based microfluidic devices (sp-μPADs) have been for the first time integrated with the colorimetric assay. The polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) board was applied as the mask instead of the iron mask, reducing the power requirement of the cutting machine. The paint was sprayed into the paper, which blocked the pores of t

4. Synthesis and characterization of amphiphilic block copolymers by transesterification for nanoparticle production
Abstract Poly(ε-caprolactone)-block-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL-PEG-PCL, triblock) and Poly(ε-caprolactone)-block-(poly(ethylene oxide)−poly(propylene oxide)−poly(ethylene oxide)-poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL-PEO-PPO-PEO-PCL, pentablock) copolymers were synthesized by transesterification with reduction of PCL molecular mass, enabling

5. Design and analysis of different models of microfluidic devices evaluated in Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) assays
ABSTRACT Microfluidic devices are a new platform for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) assays. The application of Colloidad Dispersion Gels (CDG) injection method has been proposed in recent years. However, the mechanism of oil recovery enhancement has not been completely elucidated. Its purpose is to mobilize oil by decreasing the permeability of channeled zones.

6. Neonatal screening for four lysosomal storage diseases with a digital microfluidics platform: Initial results in Brazil
Abstract We describe the initial results of a neonatal screening program for four lysosomal storage diseases (MPS I, Pompe, Gaucher and Fabry) using the digital microfluidics methodology. The method successfully identified patients previously diagnosed with these diseases and was used to test dried blood spot samples obtained from 10,527 newborns aged 2 to 1

7. Femtoliter Scale Detection of an Antithyroid Drug Using Gold Nanoparticles in a Microfluidic Chip
Sensitive detection of methimazole (MMI) at the femtoliter (fL) scale has been achieved based on photo thermal lensing of gold nanoparticles (GNPs). GNPs were used because their surface plasmon resonance (SPR) have absorption in visible range. A combined glass microfluidic chip-photo thermal lens microscopy (MFC-PTLM) system with appropriate laser source was

9. PROTOTIPAGEM DE MICRORREATORES FOTOCATALÍTICOS E TESTES DE FOTODEGRADAÇÃO DE CORANTES ORGÂNICOS
A photocatalytic microreactor is defined as a microfluidic device, which is integrated with a photocatalytic coating of TiO2 deposited on the inner surface of microchannels. This device is capable of degradation of organic dye solution in water in a continuous flow under the action of ultraviolet light. The objectives of this work were to prese

10. Characterization of Leiurus abdullahbayrami (Scorpiones: Buthidae) venom: peptide profile, cytotoxicity and antimicrobial activity
Background Scorpion venoms are rich bioactive peptide libraries that offer promising molecules that may lead to the discovery and development of new drugs. Leiurus abdullahbayrami produces one of the most potent venoms among Turkish scorpions that provokes severe symptoms in envenomated victims. Methods In the present study, the peptide profile of the v

Desenvolvimento de processo microfluídico para incorporação de DNA em lipossomas catiônicos destinados a terapia e vacinação gênica = : Development of microfluidic process for DNA incorporation into cationic liposomes for gene therapy and vaccination / Development of microfluidic process for DNA incorporation into cationic liposomes for gene therapy and vaccination
This research aimed at the technological development of microfluidic process for nonviral carriers production based on the electrostatic complexation between cationic liposomes (CL) and plasmidal DNA (pDNA) for gene and vaccine therapy applications. The development of this process was compared to the conventional bulk process, in which the solutions are mixe

12. Electrochemical detection of Pb and Cd in paper-based microfluidic devices
Tiras de papel de filtro combinadas com eletrodos de carbono impresso (SPCE) foram usadas na montagem de um dispositivo microfluídico para detecção de Pb(II) and Cd(II) em soluções aquosas. O dispositivo microfluídico portátil (com detecção eletroquímica direta) foi testado na quantificação direta de analitos (Pb(II) e Cd(II)) em amostras aquosas
