Downstream Processing01:29

Downstream Processing

Downstream processing begins once fermentation is complete and involves a series of steps to recover and purify products such as acids, vitamins, antibiotics, or proteins.Cell HarvestingFor example, for intracellular protein-based products, the first step is harvesting the cells. This is typically achieved using centrifugation or filtration to separate the cells from the liquid phase.Cell Disruption for Intracellular ProductsIf the target product is intracellular, the harvested cells must be...
Upstream Processing01:27

Upstream Processing

Upstream processing represents a critical phase in biomanufacturing, wherein biological systems such as microorganisms, mammalian cells, or insect cells are cultivated to produce therapeutic proteins, vaccines, enzymes, or other biologically derived products. This phase encompasses all steps from the selection and genetic manipulation of the production organism to the cultivation of cells in bioreactors under tightly controlled environmental conditions.Host Selection and Genetic OptimizationThe...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Dynamic magnetic resonance urography (MRU) offers a way to assess kidney function by analyzing contrast agent behavior. MRU provides reliable split renal function estimates comparable to nuclear medicine, aiding in renal function assessment.

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Nephrology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Dynamic magnetic resonance urography (MRU) utilizes contrast agents to evaluate renal function.
  • Accurate estimation of renal parameters from MRU requires understanding signal changes related to contrast concentration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss methodologies and assumptions for estimating renal function parameters using dynamic MRU.
  • To highlight challenges in deriving contrast agent concentration from MR signal changes.
  • To compare MRU-derived renal function estimates with nuclear medicine studies.

Main Methods:

  • Acquisition of dynamic MRU scans with contrast agent injection.
  • Analysis of MR signal changes to estimate contrast agent concentration.
  • Comparison of split renal function and time-intensity curves with nuclear medicine data.

Main Results:

  • MRU-derived split renal function estimates show good agreement with nuclear medicine.
  • Time-intensity curves from MRU reveal subtle differences but allow assessment of contrast transit.
  • Quantitative estimates of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) are possible with MRU.

Conclusions:

  • Dynamic MRU is a viable tool for assessing split renal function and contrast agent transit.
  • Further validation is needed for MRU-derived GFR estimates in pediatric populations.
  • MRU offers a valuable non-invasive method for evaluating kidney function.
