PMID: 23763132
J Nanosci Nanotechnol. 2013 Apr;13(4):2582-8. doi: 10.1166/jnn.2013.7340.

In the present work, we conducted the frictional tests of hydrophobic and hydrophilic polyurethane (PUo and PUi) nanofiber webs against engineering materials; soda-lime glass and silicon wafer. PUi/glass combination, with highest hydrophilicity, showed the highest friction coefficient which decrease...

BACKGROUND: Factors contributing to erythropoietin (EPO) hyporesponsiveness in patients on long-term continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis are not well understood. Therefore, we investigated the factors contributing to EPO hyporesponsiveness using the EPO resistance index (ERI).METHODS: A total of 14 patients...
