Analysis of cellular and drug action mechanisms in the malaria parasites using systems biology approaches

Anush Chiappino-Pepe

Malaria puts at risk of infection half of the world population and still kills around half a million people every year. The rapid and worrisome rise of drug-resistant malaria parasites hinders the treatment of malaria and calls for a global collaboration t ...

Red blood cells ageing markers: a multi-parametric analysis

Gerardo Turcatti, Niels Erik Lion, Benjamin Rappaz, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn

Background. Red blood cells collected in citrate-phosphate-dextrose can be stored for up to 42 days at 4 degrees C in saline-adenine-glucose-mannitol additive solution. During this controlled, but nevertheless artificial, ex vivo ageing, red blood cells ac ...

Microdevice for Sedimentation-based Separation of Blood Microsamples at the Point of Collection

David Forchelet

Laboratory blood testing plays a central role in current diagnostics and therapeutical decisions. Thus, errors have a direct impact on care quality and cost. The majority of errors occur in the pre-analytical phase, when samples are collected, stored and p ...

Protein Corona: Impact of Lymph Versus Blood in a Complex In Vitro Environment

Heinrich Hofmann, Duncan Thomas Lindsay Alexander, Marc Moniatte, Marijana Mionic Ebersold, Débora Bonvin, Ulrich Aschauer, Diego Chiappe

In biological environments, the surface of nanoparticles (NPs) are modified by protein corona (PC) that determines their biological behavior. Unfortunately, in vitro tests still give different PC than in vivo tests causing in vitro-in vivo discrepancy; hen ...

Study of cortical energy metabolism during sensory stimulation-induced brain activity by ¹³C magnetic resonance spectroscopy in vivo

Sarah Catherine Sonnay

Cerebral function is associated with high metabolic activity that is supported by continuous supply of oxygen and glucose from the blood. Coupling between brain energy metabolism and neuronal activity has been studied extensively during the past decades. N ...

Osmolarity: A hidden factor in Nanotoxicology

Omid Mashinchian

In the field of drug delivery, long circulating nanocarriers in the blood have many advantages such as targeted drug delivery and sustained release. Based on our current knowledge, evaluation of the effect of long circulating nanocarriers in the blood stre ...

Impact of strength and size of donors on the optoelectronic properties of D-pi-A sensitizers

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Peng Gao

A series of carbazole based sensitizers with either phenyl based donors (TBC, TMC, OMC, PC, TBR, TMR, OMR and PR) or aryl amine based donors (OMNC, CNC and HNC) as well as one without a donor group (CC) have been synthesized to understand the influence of ...

Sensitive and fast identification of bacteria in blood samples by immunoaffinity mass spectrometry for quick BSI diagnosis

Hubert Girault, Horst Pick, Liang Qiao, Natalia Gasilova, Alexandra Bondarenko, Niels Erik Lion, Michel Prudent, Yingdi Zhu

Bloodstream infections rank among the most serious causes of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients, partly due to the long period (up to one week) required for clinical diagnosis. In this work, we have developed a sensitive method to quickly and ...

Modelling of a Dielectric Electroactive Polymer Tubular Shape Sensor for Pressure Measurements

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Jonathan André Jean-Marie Chavanne

The variation of pressure of the blood is a key parameter in the development of ventricular assist device. This latter is useful in order to synchronize the behavior of the actuator with the cardiac frequency. This paper presents a sensor made of a dielect ...

Automated tracking of temporal displacements of a red blood cell obtained by time-lapse digital holographic microscopy

Benjamin Rappaz

Red blood cell (RBC) phase images that are numerically reconstructed by digital holographic microscopy (DHM) can describe the cell structure and dynamics information beneficial for a quantitative analysis of RBCs. However, RBCs investigated with time-lapse ...

Visualization of hepatic arteries with 3D ultrasound during intra-arterial therapies

Anaïs Laure Marie-Thérèse Badoual

Liver cancer represents the second most common cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. The prognosis is poor with an overall mortality of 95%. Moreover, most hepatic tumors are unresectable due to their advanced stage at discovery or poor underlying l ...
