Future Trends and Perspectives

Besides advances in the synthesis and processing of biodegradable PUs conducted in recent years, their utilization in small-diameter vascular grafts is still very sparse. In addition, there are few studies where a complete characterization of the mechaifical behavior under physiological conditions was performed. 

The development of an off-the-shelf small-diameter vascular graft for bypass surgery with proper mechanical properties and biologic response is still an ongoing issue of current research in the field of vascular tissue engineering.

This chapter provides an overview of the continuous evolution that HPLC has undergone, inclnding tnming into UHPLC, which can be easily coupled to MS to combine the strengths of both techniques. A general description about the importance and composition of VOO will be given, as well as a siunmary of some of the most relevant applications of UHPLC-MS for analyzing different components of VOO. Future trends and perspectives in the use of UHPLC-MS in this field will be also underlined. 

The book concludes with perspectives on future trends and some thoughts on the future direction of LC/MS applications in the pharmaceutical industry. New standards of analytical performance are discussed with regard to throughput and capacity. A prospective look at how higher standards of analytical performance in the pharmaceutical industry will effect relationships with academia and instrument manufacturers is featured. These sections extend the initial thesis of accelerated development to include new analysis bottlenecks and perspectives on analysis issues and industry needs. 

The last section (19.6) is focused on the commercial potential and perspectives of using metal ammines in connection with, for example, polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) and solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) as well as selective catalytic reduction (SCR)-DeNO c (NO c removal) in the transport sector, and it includes comments on the global availability and low cost of the carrier salts. This section also provides the authors perspectives on future trends and challenges in metal ammine research, along with links to the interested reader for further information on key articles, companies and websites.

In addition to the evaluation of chemical process hazards, and the proper applications of the evaluation to process design and operation, the management systems are important to assure operation of the facilities as intended. Brief introductions into hazard identification and quantification, and into management controls from the perspective of process safety are presented in Chapter 4. Future trends are also briefly reviewed here.
