ANTIMICROBIAL HYPOCHLOROUS WOUND IRRIGATION SOLUTIONS DEMONSTRATE LOWER ANTI-BIOFILM EFFICACY AGAINST BACTERIAL BIOFILM IN A COMPLEX IN-VITRO HUMAN PLASMA BIOFILM MODEL (HPBIOM) THAN COMMON WOUND ANTIMICROBIALS

Biofilms pose a relevant factor for wound healing impairment in chronic wounds.With 78% of all chronic wounds being affected by biofilms, research in this area is of high priority, especially since data for evidence-based selection of appropriate antimicrobials and antiseptics is scarce.Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the ant

Understanding the dynamic phenomena in grasping/cutting processes with scissors is important for the design of surgical robots and virtual reality systems.Here, we show the relationship between the mechanical stimuli and tactile sensations when willett mini bottle forceps or scissors are used.Nineteen subjects grasped or cut objects and evaluated t

The processing of brain diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data for large cohort studies requires fully automatic pipelines to perform quality control (QC) and artifact/outlier removal procedures on the raw DTI data prior to calculation of diffusion parameters.In this study, three automatic activecare spitfire DTI processing pipelines, each complying w
