摘要:
Systems and methods for magnetic targeting of therapeutic particles are provided. Therapeutic particles comprise one or more magnetic or magnetizable materials and at least one therapeutic agent. Therapeutic particles are specifically targeted using uniform magnetic fields capable of magnetizing magnetizable materials, and can be targeted to particular locations in the body, or can be targeted for capture, containment, and removal. Also provided are bioresorbable nanoparticles prepared without the use of organic solvents, and methods for therapeutically using such bioresorbable nanoparticles.

摘要:
A therapeutic system and a method that uses stents, and/or other implantable devices (104) for local delivery of a therapeutic agent is disclosed. A therapeutic formulation (102) may include particles of a biocompatible magnetic or magnetizable material that carry the therapeutic agent, or magnetically responsive cells. The therapeutic formulation (102) is intravenously administered to a mammalian subject. A portion of the formulation (102) is delivered to the proximity of a device (104) implanted in the vascular system of the subject by externally generating a magnetic field gradient (106) on the implantable device (104). The portion of the therapeutic formulation (102) not delivered to the proximity of the implantable device (104) is removed from the vascular system. The method allows for the repeated administration of the same or different therapeutic agent, and further, has the option of locally injecting, or alternatively, peripherally administering, the therapeutic agent.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for carrying out measurements on single cells, either one or many single cells at a time in order to characterize the cellular response to stimuli in a perfused liquid. The apparatus for performing the respirometry includes a double-barrel pipette probe.
摘要:
Non-thermal plasma is a partly ionized gas, which can be generated by a high-voltage electric field at a low pressure. Disclosed herein are apparatuses and methods for treating an enteric disease in vivo using non-thermal plasma. The disclosed apparatuses have a first conduit comprising a lumen and a tip; a first electrode disposed within the lumen of the first conduit; a second electrode comprised of a metal conduit disposed within the first conduit; an insulator disposed within the lumen of the first conduit, the insulator configured to electrically insulate the first electrode from the second electrode; and a gas channel disposed between the outer surface of the metal conduit and the inner surface of the first conduit, the gas channel being capable of feeding a gas from a gas source to the tip, wherein when the potential is applied, the gas is ionized to produce the non-thermal plasma.
