The TechnologyHepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major cause of chronic liver disease and has become a global health threat. No HCV vaccine is currently available and treatment with antiviral therapy is associated with adverse side effects. Moreover, there is no preventive therapy for ...

Summary A method to measure the electrical properties of a sample.Electrical characterization of solid-state devices based on small length-scale heterostructures is of broad interest. Yet, the existing methods for electrical measurements are limited in spatial resolution and usually do not ...

Improved methods for culturing tissue and stem cells Categories Stem cells, Tissue culture, Research/development tools Development Stage In-vitro proof of concept in various engineered tissues Patent Status Patent published in Europe, allowed in United States, filed in ...

Summary A novel system that maintains the growth of stem cells in 3D cultures. Embryonic and adult stem cells of human origin provide unique models for studying human development and at the same time, exciting potential sources of cells for regenerative medicine. In vivo, embryonic and adult ...

BACKGROUND The geometry of crystals, bones and other natural objects can appear random. But they possess characteristic patterns which help attain beneficial features, such as aesthetics or structural strength. It is possible to generate such patterns in 2D, using a sample pattern for reference. ...

The present invention provides a unique 3D pancreatic-like model for co-culture of isolated pancreatic islets with endothelial cells on a PLLA/PLGA biodegradable polymeric scaffold. Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) is a chronic inflammatory disease in which there is autoimmune-mediated ...

Abstract Long scenes can be imaged by far away cameras, or by mosaicing multiple images from closer cameras scanning the scene. We address the case of a video camera scanning a scene while moving in a long path, e.g. scanning a city street from a driving car, or scanning a terrain from a ...

The Technology Root phenotypic plasticity is a major factor allowing plants to adapt to their ever changing environment. Although this fundamental issue is of great agricultural importance, studying root plasticity is highly complex due to their hidden nature. We present an automatic system for ...

Summary Applications The life-saving strategy that we propose is based on the use of blood Glu scavenging agents for the treatment acute neurodegenerative conditions in which the excess Glu present in the brain interstitial fluid is thought to trigger ...

The present technology aims to re-vascularize or open an occluded artery in acute stroke and other conditions involved vessels occlusion. The technology apply a micro-catheter, designed to deliver an electrode wired to the clot at the occluded site by applying a positive pulse to the clot and ...

Description of Technology Many electronic power circuits require the conversion of electric power from one form to another. Typically, converter circuits are based on the storage of electromagnetic energy in a coil by charging the coil during one part of an AC cycle and discharging it in another ...

Background A rapidly growing section in the pharmaceutical market is searching for drugs that specifically trigger the cell-death-apoptotic process in cancer cells. We are developing therapies based on smart proteins that restore the ability of cancer cells to commit suicide apoptosis). ...
