In solid tumours, interstitial fluid dynamics emerge from a complex interplay between leaky tumour vasculature, impaired lymphatic drainage and a dense extracellular matrix. Elevated interstitial ...

The next frontier of continuous health monitoring could be skin deep. Biomedical engineers at the University of Cincinnati say interstitial fluid, the watery fluid found between and around cells, ...

Interstitial fluid flow is closely related to drug delivery and distribution, playing a crucial role in their therapeutic effects on tumors. However, few non-invasive measurement methods are available ...

Researchers have developed a new type of porous microneedle that can extract interstitial fluid from skin faster than ever before, without drawing blood or causing pain. By precisely controlling the ...

Water makes up around 60% of the human body. More than half of this water is inside the cells that make up organs and tissues, and much of the remaining water flows in the spaces between cells. MIT ...

A rapid and reliable skin-patch test 1 can now detect the COVID-19 virus, and potentially other infectious agents in under three minutes, without the need to draw blood. This convenience overcomes a ...

Some discoveries change the way we view the human body. In 2021, researchers described what they saw when they had examined skin-biopsy samples that included tattoos: The ink particles had traveled ...
