Current IVF procedures typically use only qualitative manual grading, which is limited in the identification of genetically abnormal embryos. The automatic quantitative assessment of blastocyst expansion can potentially improve sustained pregnancy rates and reduce health risks from abnormal pregnancies through a more accurate identification of genetic abnormality. The expansion rate of a blastocyst is an important morphological feature to determine the quality of a developing embryo. In this work, a deep learning based human blastocyst image segmentation method is presented, with the goal of facilitating the challenging task of segmenting irregularly shaped blastocysts. The type of blastocysts evaluated here has undergone laser ablation of the zona pellucida, which is required prior to trophectoderm biopsy. This complicates the manual measurements of the expanded blastocyst's size, which shows a correlation with genetic abnormalities. The experimental results on the test set demonstrate segmentation greatly improves the accuracy of expansion measurements, resulting in up to 99.4% accuracy, 98.1% precision, 98.8% recall, a 98.4% Dice Coefficient, and a 96.9% Jaccard Index.","PeriodicalId":443566,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 13th International Conference on Nano/Molecular Medicine & Engineering (NANOMED)","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132756423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The framework includes a novel multimodal complex vascular topological model to emulate the real vasculature inside the human body, and an efficient system model that is able to track nanoswimmers in an in vivo environment. The multimodal vascular model consists of three consecutive subnetworks to represent normal arteries, normal subcutaneous capillaries and tumor vasculature, aiming for setting up the trajectories towards tumors. The proposed tracking system model, based on Kalman filters, very significantly decreases the noise induced by a variety of sources by approximately 51.3%-75% to provide accurate position information of the nanoswimmers.","PeriodicalId":443566,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 13th International Conference on Nano/Molecular Medicine & Engineering (NANOMED)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121461834","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among various near Infrared (NIR) responsive nanomaterials which are under research, gold coated liposomes (Au Lipos NPs) are considered as a promising candidate for photothermal therapy and triggered drug delivery agent. The external NIR light trigger is advantageous because the trigger itself causes therapeutic effect (by inducing localized hyperthermia). In the current study we have investigated the timing of therapeutic trigger that governs the therapeutic efficacy. We found a significant enhancement in therapy when early trigger was applied. Moreover, the curcumin (hydrophobic model drug) entrapped in Au Lipos Cur NPs acted as a thermal sensitizer further enhancing the therapeutic outcome. The in vivo repeated dose administration in rats revealed no specific toxicity to the animal.","PeriodicalId":443566,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 13th International Conference on Nano/Molecular Medicine & Engineering (NANOMED)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134454628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The accurate segmentation of the embryo's inner cell mass (ICM) and trophectoderm epithelium (TE) is important, as these parameters can help to predict the embryo viability and live birth potential. However, segmentation of the ICM and TE is difficult due to variations in their shape and similarities in their textures, both with each other and with their surroundings. To tackle this problem, a deep neural network (DNN) based segmentation approach was implemented. The DNN can identify the ICM region with 99.1% accuracy, 94.9% precision, 93.8% recall, a 94.3% Dice Coefficient, and a 89.3% Jaccard Index.

Although, invasion of primary tumor cell is the initial step required in tumor metastasis, migration is also the important key elements activity in cancer cell detach from the primary tumor and spreading to other extracellular matrix. Currently, various cell migration assays have been developed to investigate the motility behavior of the multicellular, including wound healing / scratch assay and transwell assay. However, most of the in vitro researches of cell motility are based on two-dimensional (2D) culture systems, which limit our understanding of the mechanisms of cell motility. Thus, three dimensional culture (3D) model is necessary which is able to mimic conditions and microenvironments of in vivo. In this study, a microfluidic chip was developed and matrigel was used as cell scaffold. In order to perform 3D cell migration assay, cells cultured in 3D environment and invaded through a matrigel filled microchannel. In addition, we determine the motility of the cancer cell correlated to the interleukin 6 (IL-6) concentration. Here, we successfully developed a prototype of visualizing and quantifying 3D cell migration assay.","PeriodicalId":443566,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 13th International Conference on Nano/Molecular Medicine & Engineering (NANOMED)","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125286757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In various pathological and physiological conditions, higher concentrations of H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf> can cause lipid peroxidation, DNA base modification, protein degradation, etc. H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf> present in quantities of about <tex>$20-50 mumathrm{M}$</tex> or more can have deleterious effects as it can easily dissolve in aqueous solutions and penetrate biological membranes easily. Hence, sensitive and selective detection of H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf>is important under physiological conditions. In this work, we report a non-enzymatic electrochemical method for the facile and sensitive detection of H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf>. We explored the approach of using polymer-nanocomposite as an efficient transducer platform. We synthesized three-phase composite polymer system of PEDOT:PSS/GO/MnO<inf>2</inf>, comprising of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly(styrene-sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS), graphene oxide (GO) and manganese dioxide (MnO<inf>2</inf>).

The composite was prepared using the conventional solution mixing method and then used to modify screen printed electrodes. The physicochemical characterization was carried out by Raman Spectroscopy and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. Cyclic Voltammetry results showed that the nanocomposite showed high electrochemical activity for the detection of hydrogen peroxide (H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf>) in alkaline medium. The PEDOT:PSS/GO/MnO<inf>2</inf> based electrode exhibits high sensitivity and selectivity for electrochemical detection of H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf> with a sensitivity of <tex>$0.5mu mathrm{M}$</tex>.

Acquiring reliable, quick, and cheap DNA sequencing facilitates personalized medicine procedure where right medication will be given to patients. In this article, a semi-empirical model is presented for calculating electron transport properties for the z-shaped sensor to identify the DNA sequence. The z-shaped sensor is made of two metallic electrodes of zigzag graphene nanoribbon (ZGNR) connected through a semiconducting channel with a pore in the middle where DNA bases are translocated. The channel is made of armchair graphene nanoribbon (AGNR) which is semiconducting. Semi-empirical model and non-equilibrium Green's function are utilized to ananlyze the various electronic characteristics. The semi-empirical model used is an expansion of the extended Hückel technique with self-consistent Hartree potential. Using the non-equilibrium Green's function combined with self-consistent extended Hückel (NEGF+SC-EH), we show that each of the bases placed within the pore whose edge carbon atoms are passivated with nitrogen leads to a unique current. Several electronic properties are studied such as electrical current and transmission spectrum of DNA bases within the sensor's nanopore. These characteristics are investigated with modification of base orientation. Our study produced unique current for each of the DNA bases inside the pore.","PeriodicalId":443566,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 13th International Conference on Nano/Molecular Medicine & Engineering (NANOMED)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129466428","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
