摘要:
A quality control assay to verify adequate treatment of blood product following decontamination with furocoumarins and light. The methods involve measuring the inhibition of template-dependent enzymatic synthesis of nucleic acid following the addition of compounds that add covalently to nucleic acid.
摘要:
Methods and compositions are described for treating contaminants in material intended for in vivo use, and in particular blood and blood products for human use. Contaminants in blood cell preparations are inactivated using 8-methoxypsoralen prior to long term storage and transfusion.
摘要:
Methods are disclosed for photodecontamination to inactivate microorganisms in platelet preparations and for removal of psoralen after photodecontamination. Removal is achieved by contacting the psoralen with a psoralen-binding polymer.
摘要:
Methods for measuring pathogen inactivation, and in particular, methods for measuring pathogen inactivation in blood and blood products after photochemical decontamination. The methods involve measuring the inhibition of template-dependent enzymatic synthesis of nucleic acid following the addition of compounds that add covalently to nucleic acid.
摘要:
Methods of photodecontamination are described which employ phosphate buffered aqueous solutions. Blood products comprising plasma are diluted with these solutions and treated with psoralen.
摘要:
Methods and compositions are described for treating contaminants in material intended for in vivo use, and in particular blood and blood products for human use. Compositions of synthetic media are described which optimize conditions for inactivation of contaminants in blood cell preparations, using 8-methoxypsoralen, prior to long term storage and transfusion.
摘要:
A magnetic control wheel having a flywheel and a magnetic ring. The magnetic ring is a plate with magnetic permeability that is mounted around the periphery of the flywheel. The connection line at the front and rear joint of the magnetic ring meets an end face of the flywheel at a non-right angle. The reaction of this connection line to the magnetic field of the magnets is focused at only one point rather than at a line at the same time. In this way, the vibration and noise of the magnetic control wheel can be considerably minimized to achieve a longer service life.
摘要:
Intravenous administration of 8-methoxypsoralen is disclosed, and more specifically intravenous administration of 8-methoxypsoralen-blood preparations, including platelets. Random donor platelet bags are treated, stored and pooled prior to transfusion.
摘要:
Synthetic media formulations are disclosed for use with blood preparations intended for in vivo use, including synthetic media formulations to be employed in conjunction with the photodecontamination of platelets using 8-methoxypsoralen.
摘要:
A combined generator with built-in eddy-current magnetic resistance including a rotor and a stator iron core with generating coils winding therearound. The rotor consists of an outward turning type inertia flywheel and permanent magnets. A self-generated supply is achieved when the flywheel is driven by a fitness apparatus or a rehabilitation apparatus. An internal ring (A magnet-conductive ring) between the wheel hub and the external ring of the flywheel is extended from the internal wall toward the opening end. The internal diameter of the stator iron core is greater than the external diameter of the magnet-conductive ring such that a magnetic field gap is created. At least one receiving portion is formed in at least one portion of the internal circumference of the stator iron core for receiving at least one solenoid. The power required by the solenoid is supplied by the self-generated system such that the solenoid produces a magnetic field (by input of the power), thereby providing the magnet-conductive ring coupled to and rotated on the inertia flywheel with an eddy-current magnetic resistance. In this way, a reverse resistance acts from the inside on the inertia flywheel such that a braking effect is achieved.
