A method of improving the efficacy of a blood transfusion into a subject is provided comprising administering a composition comprising an EAF PEGylated-blood protein into the subject, prior to, during, or subsequent to the blood transfusion.

Method of enhancing efficacy of blood transfusions

A device and a method for measuring viscosity that includes attaching molecular rotors to a solid surface, exposing the solid surface to a fluid having a viscosity to be measured, and taking optical measurements to determine viscosity. The solid surface is preferably quartz, polystyrene or silicate glass, such as a fiber optic probe or a glass cuvette. The molecular rotors are of the type that includes an electron-donor group and electron-acceptor group that are linked by a single bond so that the groups may rotate with respect to one another, and that exhibit a fluorescence emission when rotation is hindered.

Supported molecular biofluid viscosity sensors for in vitro and in vivo use

Methods and compositions are described which are useful for increasing the peripheral blood flow in mammals during conditions of hemodilution. The methods and compositions involve the use of materials to increase the blood viscosity in the system of microscopic blood vessels.

Methods for increasing peripheral blood circulation

Compositions, and methods of use thereof, for use as blood substitute products comprise aqueous mixtures of oxygen-carrying and non-oxygen carrying plasma expanders and methods for the use thereof. The oxygen-carrying component may consist of any hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier, while the non-oxygen carrying plasma expander my consist of an oncotic colloid-like starch.
