Improved Method for the ASTM Platelet and Leukocyte Assay: Use of Minimal Heparinization in a Screening Test for Hemocompatibility of Blood-Contacting Medical Devices
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Most blood-contacting medical devices must be assessed for potential thrombogenicity prior to regulatory approval. A common assay for screening and qualifying devices involves monitoring the reduction of platelet and ...
Thrombogenicity Testing of Medical Devices in a Minimally Heparinized Ovine Blood Loop
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: ISO 10993-4 in vivo thrombogenicity testing is frequently performed for regulatory approval of many blood-contacting medical devices and is often a key part of submission packages. Given the current state of in vivo ...
Lessons Learned from IPCC AR4: Scientific Developments Needed to Understand, Predict, and Respond to Climate Change
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concluded that global warming is ?unequivocal? and that most of the observed increase since the mid-twentieth century is very likely ...
