Abstract: In some embodiments provided herein is a method of treating a coagulopathy in a subject, the method including administering to the subject in need thereof an effective amount of a composition including platelets or platelet derivatives and an incubating agent including one or more salts, a buffer, optionally a cryoprotectant, and optionally an organic solvent, wherein the subject has been treated or is being treated with an antiplatelet agent.

Abstract: Provided herein are materials and methods for the preparation of blood products. In one aspect, provided herein is a composition including platelets or platelet derivatives and an aqueous medium, wherein the aqueous medium has a protein concentration less than 50% of the protein concentration of donor apheresis plasma.

Abstract: Antimicrobial polymer composite materials are disclosed that are suitable for making oral devices used in dental applications, such as denture bases. Acrylic resin composite materials comprising antimicrobial polymers and antimicrobial fillers provide reduction in common oral microorganisms after long-term aging, with reduced release rate of antimicrobial agents from the composite material. Antimicrobial polymers are prepared from compositions comprising acrylate and/or methacrylate monomers and polymerizable quaternary ammonium silicon-containing compounds.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate systems and methods for detecting cognitive decline of a subject using passively obtained data from at least one mobile device. In an exemplary embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises receiving passively obtained data from at least one mobile device. The method further comprises generating digital biomarker data from the passively obtained data. The method further comprises analyzing the digital biomarker data to determine whether the subject is exhibiting signs of cognitive decline.

Abstract: In some embodiments provided herein is a method of treating a coagulopathy in a subject that is being administered or has been administered an antiplatelet agent, the method comprising: (a) determining that the subject has an abnormal result for evaluation of one or more clotting parameters; and (b) after (a), administering to the subject in need thereof an effective amount of a composition comprising platelets or platelet derivatives and an incubating agent comprising one or more salts, a buffer, optionally a cryoprotectant, and optionally an organic solvent.

Abstract: A fluidic device includes a fluidic layer, a capture material, and an electronics layer, the fluidic layer includes a main channel and a pair of sample channels fluidly coupled to the main channel. The pair of sample channels is configured to receive and introduce a sample material into the device. The sample material includes an analyte. The capture material is positioned in a portion of the main channel that is spaced from the pair of sample channels. The capture material has a three-dimensional matrix of receptors therein configured to bond with the analyte. The capture material has a length that is associated with a dynamic range of the fluidic device and a cross-sectional area that is associated with a sensitivity of the fluidic device. The electronics layer includes electrodes configured to measure an electrical resistance through a portion of the capture material.

Abstract: Techniques for efficiently capturing targets, such as biological materials, within the air are described. A lightweight, portable device is configured to capture the targets without desiccation by flowing a mixture of air carrying the targets with liquid droplets through a nonlinear path in a partially enclosed interior of the device. For example, a method includes generating an impinging jet comprising a mixture of air, a target, and droplets. A baffle splits the impinging jet into a recirculation zone and coalesces a mixture of the target and the droplets onto an upper surface of the baffle. At least one channel receives the coalesced mixture and transports the coalesced mixture to a collection reservoir.
