    Vitamin E triggers Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) embolic potential: a proposed application for endovascular surgery

    No full text
    Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) is a biocompatible polymer used as embolizing agent for endovascular surgery. Blending of PHEMA with a hydrophobic and anti-oxidant agent, Vitamin E (Vit.E, 0.1-10%, w/v), modified PHEMA's haemocombatibility, evaluated measuring wettability, plasma protein adsorption along with whole blood coagulation time. The presence of Vit.E increases PHEMA's hydrophobicity and plasma protein adsorption (in particular albumin and Immunoglobulin G), while it also accelerates blood clot formation. These effects are developed due to a combination of issues such as surface hydrophobicity and plasma protein adsorption induced by the presence of Vit.E, suggesting that Vit.E blending could improve the use of PHEMA as embolizing agent

    Reno-Sparks Indian Colony v. Haaland added clarity to the scope of a federal agency’s duty to consult with Tribes under the National Historic Preservation Act. The case was the culmination of unsuccessful litigation efforts by Tribes to stop a large mining project, and it demonstrated the high hurdle Tribes face when challenging whether a federal agency has engaged in reasonable and good faith consultation
