We compared static preservation (cold storage, CS, 4° C) with dynamic preservation
(machine perfusion, MP, 20° C) followed by reperfusion using marginal livers: a model of …

Objectives Currently, one of the most pressing issues for surgeons in the treatment of
obstructive jaundice is the ability to assess the functional state of the liver and to detect and …

Autofluorescence (AF) of crude serum was investigated with reference to the potential of its
intrinsic AF biomarkers for the noninvasive diagnosis of liver injury. Spectral parameters of …

The bichromophore nature of bilirubin explains the presence of at least two partially
overlaying bands in both absorption and fluorescence emission spectra, and accounts for …

The autofluorescence of specific fatty acids, retinoids, and bilirubin in crude serum can
reflect changes in liver functional engagement in maintaining systemic metabolic …

Depending on their chemical nature, lipids can be classified in two main categories:
hydrophilic, greatly contributing to membrane composition and subcellular organelle …
