Scientists at Oregon Health and Science University have discovered that cells generate steady internal fluid currents, dubbed “cytoplasmic tradewinds,” that actively push proteins toward the leading ...

Automated cell analysis in biological fluids encompasses technologies for rapid quantification and characterisation of cells in specimens such as cerebrospinal, pleural, peritoneal and synovial fluids ...

Automated cell counting in body fluids is revolutionising diagnostic pathways by replacing traditional manual methods with robust, high-throughput platforms. This approach enhances accuracy and ...

A fluid that women with advanced ovarian cancer know all too well - ascites, the buildup of liquid in the belly - may be ...

As a fetus develops, its body is bathed in amniotic fluid: a warm, salty soup of nutrients, hormones, and antibodies produced by its mother. And into that fluid, a fetus is constantly sloughing off or ...

Scientists have created miniorgans from cells floating in the fluid that surrounds a fetus in the womb – an advance they believe could open up new areas of prenatal medicine. Miniorgans, or “ ...

Behavior of a spherical capsule in a pulsatile flow. A single capsule moving in the direction of the flow is superimposed. Fukuoka, Japan—As you read this sentence, trillions of cells are moving ...

These images use color markers—blue for nuclei, red for cell membranes, and green for fluid—to show that spaces between cells shrink as fluid moves out during tissue compression, from left to right ...

Amniotic fluid is chock full of dead cells. And although the cells, which are shed from the developing fetus, have been used in prenatal diagnostics for over four decades, the composition of the tiny ...
