Objectives: The present review intended to present a critical overview of the methodological and experimental advances concerning tridimensional cell culture models within the scope of gastrointestinal research. Methods: ...

Research on alternatives to the use of animal models and cell cultures has led to the creation of organ-ona-chip systems, in which organs and their physiological reactions to the presence of external stimuli are simulated. ...

Magnetite decorated with gold nanoparticles (Fe3O4-AuNPs) is a ferrimagnetic material with unprecedented applications in immunosensors, as a contrast agent for imaging diagnosis, and for the photothermal ablation of tumor ...

Organ-on-a-chip platforms are a promising technology for research in biotechnology, tissue engineering and pharmaceutical fields. They enable the study of physiological processes, facilitating the development of new drugs ...

Bastidores eletrônicos de alta performance e disponibilidade utilizam o protocolo Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) para gerenciar seus dispositivos, controlando e monitorando os recursos disponíveis. Neste ...

Technologies capable of noninvasively sampling different locations in the gut upstream of the colon enable new insights into the role of organ-specific microbiota in human health. Herein, an ingestible, biocompatible, ...

Sensing and stimulating microstructures are necessary to develop more specialized and highly accurate Organ-on-Chip (OOC) platforms. In this paper, we present the integration of a conductive polymer, poly (3,4-ethylened ...
