Surgeries broadly describe procedures used to investigate or treat a medical condition, such as a disease, injury, or bodily impediment. In general, surgeries aim to improve function or appearance or repair a damaged or infected area of the body. Examples of surgeries include angioplasty, joint replacements, cesarean section, organ transplantation, hysterectomy.
Solid phase microextraction (SPME) is a versatile, non-exhaustive sample preparation tool that has been demonstrated to be well-suited for facile and effective analysis of a broad range of c...
Background: Localized prostate cancer is notable for tumor heterogeneity, and immune heterogeneity within tumor versus benign areas. B7-H3, a member of the B7 superfamily, is highly expresse...
Stem cells respond to both physical and biochemical changes in their stem cell niche. An ideal scaffold for tissue engineering application should mimic the microenvironment for natural tissu...
While providing indispensable insight into immune processes, the live cell imaging of immune cells poses unique challenges due to their non-adherent nature. Suspension cells such as immune c...
