Biological Valley, Nov. 21, 2016 - Researchers are increasingly approaching the goal of creating a functional bioartificial kidney. This progress is presented at the ASN Kidney Week (November 15 - 20, 2016) in McCormick Square, Chicago.Once bioprosthetic kidneys are successfully developed, they can meet the needs of dialysis or transplantation in millions of patients with renal failure. The key requirement of this device is the formation of a "living membrane" consisting of a tight layer of kidney cells on the surface of the artificial membrane and the transport of molecules from one...

According to the X-MOL News of October 23, 2016, the earliest discussion of Janus particles may be traced back to the Nobel Prize speech by P.G. de Gennes (of course, the earliest article on Janus particles was earlier). Janus is the name of two-faced gods in ancient Roman mythology. It is said that Janus has two faces, one facing the past and the other facing the future. In the field of chemistry, it is used to describe materials with asymmetric structures, especially those with opposite structures or properties. Janus particles have also become one of the earliest Janus materials.When the co...

According to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, October 19, 2016, recently, the research team of the University of Science and Technology of China has made important progress in water transport of graphene nanochannels in cooperation with Andre Geim, a Nobel Prize winner of physics and professor of the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom. Wang Fengchao, a special associate researcher at China University of Science and Technology, is the co-author of the paper.As we all know, graphene is a two-dimensional crystal composed of carbon atoms with only one layer of atomic thickness. Graphen...

Recently, an international team of researchers from Tel Aviv University in Israel, the Hebrew University in Jerusalem and the University of Newcastle in the United Kingdom has developed a film containing carbon nanotubes and nanorods that could be used as a wireless implant to induce photostimulation in the retina. Related papers were published in the recent nano express.Light shining on the retina behind the eye is the first step in the visual process, according to a recent report on the Physicist Network. If the macular degeneration causes the photoreceptors on the retina to degenerate, the ...

According to the membrane separation technology exchange Wechat Public Platform October 9, 2016, the synthetic process of drug molecules is multi-step reaction. Because of the solubility and boiling characteristics of different pharmaceutical intermediates in the synthesis process, and the need for reaction conditions, it often involves a variety of solvents and catalysts, as well as the accompanying process of filtration, drying, rotary evaporation, extraction, crystallization and so on, which is time-consuming and laborious. The continuous production process can reduce the operation steps an...
