Presentation: Madejski Proposal Presentation v3 Compressed
Document: Madejski Silicon Nanomembrane Microsystem Proposal Final
Passed in August 2015. Document was criticized heavily, oral presentation was thought to be good.
In researching for the paper for Advances in Chronic Kidney Disease (ACKD) I’ve run across some interesting papers. Here is one describing a proposed Human Nephron Filter… Human nephron filter proposed by Nissenson1 (1) 1Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, Los Angeles, California, USA This imagined device was…
Cell Culture on the CO2 exchange Devices The system becomes more complicated with the addition of cells. Tejas Khire cultured HUVECS in a device that had an inverted design to the one pictured above. (The cells were plated on the top portion (well side) of the nanomembrane with media and the bottom (flat side)of the membrane was…
In this post I will explain how I tried to use the 1D diffusion model to check the results we had in the Nature paper. Unfortunately I didn’t get the same results in the simulation and I present some ideas for the discrepancy. In the Nature paper we made simple small volume diffusion chambers and…
I drew an approximation of the SiMPore liftoff device and ran the COMSOL model with 1 mL/min urea fluid flow in the upper channels and 2 mL/min dialysate in the bottom channels. With this initial model, the urea was cleared to 40% (60% removed). This is an instantaneous urea clearance rate of K= 0.6 mL/min….
So, this is the data that we have all been waiting for. Without all the fancy introductions and stuff, I present you with labeled exosomes. They were isolated in tangential flow from my human plasma samples using the SOP that I have been following along with a labeling protocol that Henry and I developed. It…
I measured the I-V characteristics of our coated membranes on Wed. at RIT. JP observed the measurement. The semicon parameter analyzer in the test lab is “old” but isexactly what we need! Roughly speaking, our coated membraneshave resistance about 2k Ohm, depending on the thicknesses ofmetal films (this is based on pure Ti coated samples,…
