To confirm a local R0 resection of tumors with infiltrative growth at problem sites and for sparing of tissue, microscopically controlled surgery represents a safe and proven method, particularly when there are no gaps between the tissue taken at the incision margins.

Temperature control is crucial for live cell imaging, particularly in studies involving plant responses to high ambient temperatures and thermal stress. This study presents the design, development, and testing of two cost-effective heating devices tailored for confocal microscopy applications: an aluminum heat plate and a wireless mini-heater. The aluminum heat plate, engineered to integrate seamlessly with the standard 160 mm × 110 mm microscope stage, supports temperatures up to 36°C, suitable for studies in the range of non-stressful warm temperatures (e.

Alginate hydrogels have gathered significant attention in biomedical engineering due to their remarkable biocompatibility, biodegradability, and ability to encapsulate cells and bioactive molecules, but much less has been reported on the kinetics of gelation. Scarce experimental data are available on cross-linked alginates (AL) with bioactive components. The present study addressed a novel method for defining the crosslinking mechanism using rheological measurements for aqueous mixtures of AL and calcium chloride (CaCl) with the presence of hydroxyapatite (HAp) as filler particles.

Phase separation of specific proteins into liquid-like condensates is a key mechanism for forming membrane-less organelles, which organize diverse cellular processes in space and time. These protein condensates hold immense potential as biomaterials capable of containing specific sets of biomolecules with high densities and dynamic liquid properties. Despite their appeal, methods to manipulate protein condensate materials remain largely unexplored.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of different surgical methods in congenital preauricular fistula surgery.
Methods: 60 patients with congenital preauricular fistula were selected and randomly divided into a microscope group of 30 cases and a macroscopic group of 30 cases. The microscope team used the fistula separation method to perform surgery along with the fistula opening.

Efficient drug delivery remains a significant challenge in modern medicine and pharmaceutical research. Micrometer-scale robots have recently emerged as a promising solution to enhance the precision of drug administration through remotely controlled navigation within microvascular networks. Real-time tracking is crucial for accurate guidance and confirmation of target arrival.
