    Abstract: A method for analyzing a peritoneal dialysis analysis sample comprising the steps of a) providing an analysis sample from a subject, wherein the subject is subjected to peritoneal dialysis and the analysis sample is based on the peritoneal dialysis effluent of said subject, b) measuring a sample spectrum of the analysis sample in a spectral range of from 4000 cm−1 to 400 cm−1 in a spectroscopy step applying Fourier-Transform-Infrared spectroscopy, c) determining, in a comparison step, a similarity value by comparing said sample spectrum to at least one reference spectrum obtained from at least one reference sample by measuring as defined in step b), d) assigning a clinical parameter to the analysis sample based on said similarity value.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a three-dimensional tissue culture, comprising chondrocytes in a biocompatible artificial matrix, having at least the following layers: a first layer located at or close to a surface of the matrix, wherein chondrocytes have a non-spherical shape and are arranged essentially in parallel to the surface along their longest dimension; and a second layer at least partially covered by the first layer wherein the mean sphericity of the chondrocytes of the second layer is higher than the mean sphericity of the chondrocytes of the first layer; and preferably a third layer at least partially covered by the second layer, wherein chondrocytes are arranged into columns extending into the matrix, wherein each column has at least two chondrocytes. Such a tissue culture may for instance be used as artificial cartilage in surgery. Also disclosed is a method to produce such a three-dimensional culture.
