Photoacoustic detection of circulating tumor cells
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
based on the change in refractive index was developed to detect individual melanoma cells. The sensitivity of the optical based detector was high and has the resolution to determine the presence of extremely low number of metastatic and cultured cells (2...
Polyurethane foams from novel soy-based polyols
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Polyurethane foams and molded plastic films were prepared by reacting isocyanates with polyols containing 50% of vegetable oil-based polyols and 50% of petroleum-based polyols. The vegetable oil-based polyols included ...
Modeling the impact of polystyrene microparticles on toxicity of phenol to Artemia
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The increasing use and availability of micro and nanoparticles for use in science, technology and daily consumer products has led to unique challenges related to understanding...
In situ polymerizing collagen for the development of 3D printed tissue engineering scaffolds
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Natural materials have been processed and utilized as scaffold materials in the field of tissue engineering for many years. One natural material often utilized is collagen since it is the main structural protein in mammalian ...
Photoacoustic discrimination of viable and thermally coagulated blood for burn injury imaging
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Early and accurate determination of burn depth is crucial to monitoring and treatment of the burn wound. One such treatment, surgical excision and grafting, involves removal of necrotic tissue from the wound and replacing ...
Quantification of cell attachment on different materials as candidate electrodes for measurement of quantal exocytosis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
A high throughput lab-on-a-chip device is being developed for single cell capture for the purpose of high time resolution quantal exocytosis measurement with high probability of cell docking. This device makes use of DLC ...
