Question
Chapter 9.6, Problem 1CT
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The possible benefits and risk of stem cell and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) proteins.
Introduction:
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells, which have the ability to give rise to same type of daughter cells. These daughter cells then undergo a differentiation process and give rise to different types of cells. Platelet-rich plasma is a protein derived from blood cells, which is used for healing the damaged tissues.

In the context of the TPU scaffold, the BET technique will provide crucial insights into its porosity and its potential to facilitate the infusion of beta cells into the pancreas. Can you explain the expected/ideal results from the BET test and how the test will help the design process of this medical scaffold.arrow_forwardname a neurological condition due to auto immune reaction to gluten in which part of brain is involved here?
