Determination of bacterial endotoxins in parenteral solutions produced on a small scale in a clinical hospital by Renata Bozhinovska Popovska, Tatjana Gjurichikj, Branislava Janeva, Jelena Acevska, Aneta Dimitrovska

“…Furthermore, this method helps eliminate potential human variability in endpoint assessments. Therefore, the obtained results and critical aspects of the applied methods: the gel-clot LAL method and the turbidimetric kinetic method indicate that both LAL methods can be used for the determination of bacterial endotoxins in parenteral solutions, produced on a small scale and provide an opportunity for small laboratories to facilitate the decision – making process for choosing a method that best meets their requirements and resources. …”

Alternating magnetic field guiding system for MNP hyperthermia treatment of deep-seated cancers by Robert V. Stigliano, Ilona Danelyan, Giga Gabriadze, Levan Shoshiashvili, Ian Baker, P. Jack Hoopes, Roman Jobava, Fridon Shubitidze

“…Objectives Demonstrate the potential application of a novel, endoscope-like device to guide and focus an alternating magnetic field (AMF) for treating deep-seated cancers via magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia (MNPH).Methods AMF delivery, MNP activation, and eddy current distribution characteristics are investigated through experimental studies in phantoms and computational simulations using a full 3-dimensional human model. The 3D simulations compare the novel device to traditional AMF designs, including a MagForce-like, two-coil system (used clinically) and a single surface-coil system.Results The results demonstrate that this approach can deliver the same magnetic field strength at the prostate’s centroid as traditional AMF designs, while reducing eddy current heating by 2 to 6 times. …”
