Abstract: INTRODUCTION We established an in-vitro model for the study of human fetal membrane (FM) weakening leading to pPROM. In this model, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a critical intermediate for both tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF;… read more here.

Abstract: INTRODUCTION We use an in-vitro human fetal membrane (FM) explant-based model to study inflammation-induced FM weakening, a prerequisite for PPROM. In this system, GMCSF is a critical intermediate, both necessary and sufficient for TNFα and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acssuschemeng.0c00464
Abstract: Additives with different polarities were used in the fabrication of nanocellulose by ball-milling. It was found that the dimension of cellulose nanomaterials could be controlled by the additive polarity. Because there are hydrophilic and hydrophobic… read more here.
