... was assessed by digital images of the tissue's cross section in terms of ablation, zone of removed tissue, and coagulation, zone of thermally denatured protein, zones. Ablation simulation was done in Matlab R2008a and the ablation was assumed to be a vaporization process. Thermal properties of water were...

..., and reliable to covalently immobilize biomolecules on c.p. Ti surfaces. This methodology can be used to develop biofunctionalized implant surfaces with different or combined bioactivities. The biofunctional molecules can be biopolymers, proteins, growth factors, and synthetic peptides specifically designed...

...Seokheun Cho; Junseok Chae We report a new sensing technique of proteins using competitive proteins' displacement reaction on a surface, namely Vroman effect. A target protein displaces a pre-adsorbed weak-affinity protein; however a pre-adsorbed strong affinity protein is not displaced...

...M. C. Larson A prototype device (patent pending) has been created, and successfully used, to fuse tissue membranes as an alternative to sutures or staples. The joining, or coaptation, is accomplished through the controlled application of laser heating and pressure to induce protein denaturation...

.... Elevated levels of some proteins in the blood can lead to a number of medical conditions. Incorporating these polymers into a device for blood purification to remove such molecules can be used as a means to combat these problems. Protein imprinting was studied from a novel perspective using protein coated...
