The process of creating these versatile materials is fundamental to a variety of applications in industries ranging from plastics and rubber to biomedical devices and textiles. Understanding how copolymers are made involves a grasp of the underlying chemistry, synthesis techniques, and the properties that arise from their unique structures. ...
What is biofilm? Biofilms are defined as communities of micro-organisms attached to a surface, or one another, and encased within a matrix of extracellular polymeric substance (EPS). The EPS makes up the largest component of the biofilm, and in the biological environment is generally composed of polysaccharides, proteins, glycolipids, blood products, cellular debris, extracellular enzymes, metal ...
Marnick Dewilde, Chief Sales Officer of Medical Refrigeration and Blood Management solutions at B Medical Systems, took the role of moderator during the round table discussion. ...
The production of AAV vectors at a commercial scale requires robust, consistent, and cost-effective systems. Traditionally, vector production involved using adherent cell cultures, which proved inefficient and costly for large-scale operations. ...
Across industries, the Internet of Things (IoT) is driving significant investment in projects that integrate smart devices, big data, analytics, and other digitization-related tools. Healthcare institutions are no exception. Hospitals benefit from this advanced connectivity through increased efficiencies, lower costs, and better patient care. As more building infrastructure gets connected; ...
As Phoenix’s bioscience initiative grows, so do job opportunities for students By the end of the year, over $3 billion will have been invested into Phoenix’s bioscience and healthcare facilities, creating more than 8,000 jobs Phoenix City Council voted to fund the Bioscience Healthcare Strategic Initiative for the 2021-2022 fiscal year last Tuesday, a plan set to help create new job ...

In the pharmaceutical industry they are able to avoid using antibiotics and antimycotics by operating within extremely clean and well controlled facilities, where most of their processes happen inside closed systems. When you are working in a typical biological laboratory, your cultures are much more exposed to the external environment, even when using the most careful sterility ...
After a lightning round of proposals and reviews, an international team of scientists led by Dr. Camillo Ricordi was granted immediate FDA authorization for a 24-patient clinical trial to test the safety and exploratory efficacy of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) to block the life-threatening lung inflammation that accompanies severe cases of COVID-19. The therapy uses ...

However, in older populations, MSCs no longer work with the immune system and actually provide cancerous tumors with a blood supply that aids in the invasiveness and metastasis of the tumor. ...
Recent studies from our laboratories have clearly shown the utility of the carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in biomedical applications. Therefore, the behaviour of CNTs following in vivo administration is of high interest. ...
Medical information systems have recently gained momentum as a proof-of-concept of the efficiency of new support-oriented technologies, in particular, semantic technologies. In principle, diagnosis or medicine advisory and recommendation can change the current biomedical IT landscape, providing intelligent reasoning and inference support. This paper presents ...
This paper provides two alternative solutions to the difficult task of providing adequate ventilation to operations found in the biomedical device and pharmaceutical manufacturing industries. The first approach involves a two-tier strategy that includes an isolation chamber and an appropriately designed local exhaust hood. ...
Although only a minority of these have established commercial success, the EOS Gmbh and 3D systems Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) processes are the two major developers in this bracket. This paper presents an overview of the validation procedures currently associated with injection Moulds for biomedical devices and considers if these procedures are applicable ...
The application of diamond coatings on dental cutting tools has been the subject of attention in order to improve cutting performance and life in orthodontic applications. In order to improve the adhesion between diamond and WC-Co substrates, it is necessary to etch cobalt from the surface and prepare it for subsequent diamond growth. Alternatively, a Titanium Nitride (TiN) interlayer can be used ...
Previous literature on product development in the field of biotechnology has not focused on how a product is moved from step to step. Thus, insight into issues of crises and managerial choices in the process has not been provided. This paper gets down to the bench-level of bio-entrepreneurship by studying the challenges involved in developing the first product in a company. Through case studies ...
The biotechnology industry supply chain begins with a scientific discovery that often originates in academic research laboratories. This study identified determinants of scientific knowledge output (publications and citations) in a sample of academic Canadian biomedical laboratories. The amount of research funding was found to be a positive determinant of the number of publications, but the ...
