Point-of-Care Testing in the Neonatal Population: Importance of Glucose Meter Accuracy

Sep 7, 2022adminClinical, Critical Care, Glucose, Neonatology, Point-of-CareEnglish

Available On-demandRegister Here Point-of-care testing is an essential diagnostic tool in neonatal and pediatric patient settings because infants and children experience more rapid changes in clinical status than adults. Fast, accurate, interference-free POCT glucose testing in neonatal settings enables rapid detection or prevention of neonatal hypoglycemia. In this webinar, Dr. Khosrow Adeli, Professor, Clinical Biochemistry, […]

Implementation of a Novel Automated Sampling System for High Density Cell Culture Processes

Aug 10, 2022adminBiotech, Cell Culture MonitoringEnglish

Tuesday, September 20th 11am EST / 4pm BST / 5pm CET Manual bioreactor sampling is the primary cause for cell culture contamination and one of the main cost drivers in terms of man-hours required to execute this repetitive task. In addition, manual sampling increases offline measurement variability due to analysis delay and sample degassing. Several autosampler systems […]

Medium Measurement Techniques Applicable to Cell Culture for Cell Therapy

May 31, 2022adminBiotech, Cell Culture MonitoringEnglish

Our laboratory has previously demonstrated that fluctuations in medium composition in multilayer cultures of epithelial tissues (epidermal and corneal epithelial tissues) with three-dimensional structures can be used to understand the state of the epithelial tissues. In addition, this experience is applied to suspension cultures of iPS cell aggregates for the mass production recently. In this […]

Lactate as a Marker for Fetal Hypoxia

May 3, 2022adminClinical, Emergency Medicine, NeonatologyEnglish

Prolonged intrapartum hypoxia can result in hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), which affects1.5-2.5 of 1,000 newborns annually. Infants with HIE may develop permanent health conditions and disorders such as cerebral palsy, epilepsy, hearing and vision impairments, and more. During labor, fetal monitoring using cardiotocography (CTG) can screen for hypoxia. CTG has high sensitivity but low predictive […]
