Artificial Blood By IIT Madras

Hello sir I heard IIT Madras ready for mass production of artificial blood so I want to know when will IIT Madras start mass production of artificial blood???? Please tell me fast its very argent for me….. And also provide me information about this Artificial Blood….

Can you provide me the notes for - Artificial Blood Vessels under Biotechnology Tissue Engineering (Web) program offered by NPTEL for by IIT Madras?

The notes for - Artificial Blood Vessels under Biotechnology Tissue Engineering (Web) program offered by NPTEL for by IIT Madras are as follows:

Table of Contents
1. Improvement of Existing Synthetic Grafts
Surface coating with bioactive molecules improve the properties of vascular grafts. Growth factor like fibroblast growth factor and proteins like albumin, gelatin, collagen, heparin, recombinant-hirudin and peptide like YIGSR and RGD, antibiotics like vancomysin, rifampin and cephalosporin improved the endothelialisation of the synthetic grafts thereby reducing the thrombosis. Due to the less significance of these synthetic grafts for < 6mm, alternative source of material should be explored for their utility in preparing tissue engineered vascular grafts (TEVG). The wide range of polymeric materials employed in the vascular graft preparation is tabulated

2. Characterization of the Tissue Engineered Vascular Grafts
2.1 Mechanical Strength
2.2 Porosity and Pore Diameter
2.3 Current Research
