MALDI MS imaging and single-cell profiling are important new capabilities for mass spectrometry. The distribution of neuropeptides within a cell plays an important role in the functioning of the cells in a neuronal network. Protocols for subcellular MALDI MS are
A major hurdle to surmount in bone-tissue engineering is ensuring a sufficient oxygen supply to newly forming tissue to avoid cell death or delayed development of osteogenic features. We hypothesized that an oxygen-enriched hydrogel scaffold would enhance tissue-engineered bone formation

The application of perfluorotributylamine (PFTBA) ions/analyte molecule reaction ionization for the selective determination of tobacco pyridine alkaloids by ion trap mass spectrometry (IT-MS) is reported. The main three PFTBA ions (CF(3)(+), C(3)F(5)(+), and C(5)F(10)N(+)) are generated in the external source
Perfluorocarbon liquids (PFCLs) are useful for floating various materials off the posterior retina during vitreoretinal surgery. It is generally assumed that buoyancy forces restrict this use to objects with specific gravity lower than that of PFCLs. We tested potential intraocular
To identify a suitable nonaqueous, parenterally acceptable suspending vehicle whereby a therapeutic protein is delivered as a stable flowable powder, making it amenable to delivery from sustained delivery systems maintained at body temperature. Formulations of plasma derived Factor IX (pdFIX)
