ABSTRACT

We report on isolation, capture, and subsequent elution for analysis of extracellular vesicles derived from human liposarcoma cell conditioned media, using a multi-layer micro-nanofluidic device operated with tangential flow separation. Our device integrates size-based separation followed by immunoaffinity-based capture of extracellular vesicles in the same device. For liposarcomas, this is the first report on isolating, capturing, and then eluting the extracellular vesicles using a micro-nanofluidic device. The results show a significantly higher yield of the eluted extracellular vesicles (~84%) compared to the current methods of ultracentrifugation (~6%) and ExoQuick-based separations (~16%).

ABSTRACT

We report on an innovative, fabric-based conformable, and easily fabricated electroceutical wound dressing that inhibits bacterial biofilm infections and shows significant promise for healing chronic wounds. Cyclic voltammetry demonstrates the ability of the electroceutical to produce reactive oxygen species, primarily HOCl that is responsible for bacterial inhibition. In vitro investigation with the lawn biofilm grown on a soft tissue mimic assay shows the efficacy of the dressing against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria in the biofilm form. In vivo, the printed electroceutical dressing was utilized as an intervention treatment for a canine subject with a non-healing wound due to a year-long persistent polymicrobial infection. The clinical case study with the canine subject exhibited the applicability in a clinical setting with the results showing infection inhibition within 11 days of initial treatment. This printed electroceutical dressing was integrated with a Bluetooth® enabled circuit allowing remote monitoring of the current flow within the wound bed. The potential to monitor wounds remotely in real-time with a Bluetooth® enabled circuit proposes a new physical biomarker for management of infected, chronic wounds.
