This paper describes the fabrication and the performance of microfluidic paper-based
electrochemical sensing devices (we call the microfluidic paper-based electrochemical devices, …

Elasticity of cellular microenvironments strongly influences cell motility, phagocytosis,
growth and differentiation. Currently, the relationship between the cell behaviour and matrix …

Bubbling up: Dissolution of CO 2 bubbles in a suspension of colloidal particles chemically
induces the assembly of particles on the surface of shrunken bubbles, and thus yields rapid …

Background Concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by adjuvant chemotherapy (CRT-A) is
often the regimen of choice in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). …

BACKGROUND The Canadian health care system provides equitable access to equivalent
standards of care. The authors investigated to determine whether patients with breast cancer …

There is an increasing effort in the search and characterization of materials that can function
as artificial three-dimensional cellular microenvironments. In particular, the encapsulation of …

We report a new microfluidic strategy for the generation of small (<10 µm) microbubbles
with a narrow size distribution. Our approach has the following features: (i) the generation of …

Background Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) are among the most commonly
used medical devices in hospital. This study sought to determine the appropriateness of …

Targeted therapy is appropriate for specific cases (eg, N-acetylcysteine for acetaminophen
toxicity5), but treatment is primarily to stop the offending drug. Glucocorticoids are not …

By using microfluidics, we generated micellar nanofibrillar microgels from solutions of worm-like
micelles of poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide)-block-polystyrene. The microgels were formed …
