Material efficiency is one of basic challenges for any lab. To improve your lab, simply use less material. This is also ...

Peddanna Beedla, Zone Head (South India) at JSW Foundation, highlighted the anticipated impact of the installation, noting ...

PD machines are generally smaller and simpler than both clinical and home hemodialysis systems. Since the process doesn't involve circulating blood outside the body, a blood pump isn’t required.

However, researchers at the University of Tokyo tackled this problem using what they call a “Hollow Fiber Bioreactor.” This setup is inspired by medical devices like dialysis machines. More ...

A non-governmental organisation, SIL Foundation, has donated dialysis machines to five hospitals in a bid to improve access to life-saving treatment for patients with kidney disease at subsidised ...

While labs have been producing lifelike tissues for more than a decade, previous methods only made small, scattered cell balls less than 1 millimeter thick, or about 0.04 inches.

But a Japanese team has pioneered a new method to grow larger pieces of chicken in a lab, which they say recreates the texture and structure of a piece of meat that has so far proved so elusive.

Their robot-assisted assembly system can now pamper each nugget with an array of over 1,000 hollow fibers to ensure no chicken cell, however deep, is neglected. Perfusion by the hollow fibers in the ...

To create the lab-grown meat, the team essentially wanted to create an artificial circulatory system. “Dialysis fibres are used to filter waste from blood,” says Takeuchi.

Troy Stehr, Industry Account Manager – Lab and Medtech for Bürkert, looks at how manufacturers of dialysis equipment can deliver equipment optimised for patients’ comfort and safety. Dialysis machines ...
