Persistent lung atelectasis is difficult to treat and perfluorochemical (PFC) liquid may be an option for bronchioalveolar lavage (BAL). A 4-year-old girl with spinal muscle atrophy was admitted in respiratory failure. On admission, the X-ray confirmed the persistence of total
Multimodal imaging contrast agents with unique magnetic resonance (MR) and optical imaging capabilities have great potentials in the diagnosis and therapy of disease. Using a rational materials design approach, the bimodal imaging contrast agent, perfluorodecalin (PFD)/[InGaP/ZnS quantum dots (QDs)] composite
Off-line analysis and characterization of samples separated by capillary liquid chromatography (LC) has been problematic using conventional approaches to fraction collection. We demonstrate collection of nanoliter fractions by forming plugs of effluent from a 75 mum inner diameter LC column

Intestinal inflammation is associated with enhanced mucosal hypoxia, which contributes to the ongoing inflammatory process and hampers appropriate mucosal healing. We questioned whether local treatment with an oxygen (O(2))-carrying and -releasing molecule (oxygenated perfluorodecalin, O(2)-PFD) could positively influence the course

Perfluorodecalin (PFD) is a chemically and biologically inert biomaterial and, as many perfluorocarbons, is also hydrophobic, radiopaque and has a high solute capacity for gases such as oxygen. In this article we have demonstrated, both in vitro and in vivo
