Mass Spectrometric Lipid Profiles of Picosecond Infrared Laser-Generated Tissue Aerosols Discriminate Different Brain Tissues.

Background And Objectives: A picosecond infrared laser (PIRL) has recently been demonstrated to cut biological tissue without scar formation based on the minimal destructive action on the surrounding cells. During cutting with PIRL, the irradiated tissue is ablated by a cold vaporization process termed desorption by impulsive vibrational excitation. In the resulting aerosol, all molecules are dissolved in small droplets and even labile biomolecules like proteins remain intact after ablation.

Proteome analysis of human mesenchymal stem cells undergoing chondrogenesis when exposed to the products of various magnesium-based materials degradation.

Treatment of physeal fractures (15%-30% of all paediatric fractures) remains a challenge as in approximately 10% of the cases, significant growth disturbance may occur. Bioresorbable Magnesium-based implants represent a strategy to minimize damage (., load support until bone healing without second surgery).
