LOS ANGELES--In Memphis, Tenn., a small medical supply company called Luminetx has developed a new method of palm-reading that it hopes will rival fingerprinting or retinal scans as a way to perfectly ...

Norwegian startup ClexBio is bioengineering human veins to implant inside a patient’s body. Together with CSEM, a Swiss R&D centre, the company has built a prototype bioreactor to grow the veins.

3D-printed blood vessels, which closely mimic the properties of human veins, could transform the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Strong, flexible, gel-like tubes -- created using a novel 3D ...

Research conducted by the University of Hull and Hull York Medical School shows two of the five microplastic polymer types found in human veins came from food packaging. The first food packaging-based ...

A new type of bioreactor that can grow human veins in the lab has been developed by CSEM and ClexBio, a Nordics-based startup specialized in regenerative medicine. Funded by the Research Council of ...

Blood clot researchers could benefit from a new device that mimics a human vein, replacing the need for animals for some studies. The vein-on-a-chip model has been developed by scientists at the ...

These veins assist in draining oxygen-depleted blood from the hand and forearm. In this process, the blood flows to the brachial vein and eventually makes its way back to the lungs for resupply with ...

The hepatic veins carry oxygen-depleted blood from the liver to the inferior vena cava. They also transport blood that has been drained from the colon, pancreas, small intestine, and the stomach, and ...
