Novel Class of Turn-ON Near-Infrared Probes for Diagnosis and Imaging of Inflammation and Cancer
Complete tumor removal during surgery has a great impact on patient survival. To that end, the surgeon should detect the tumor, remove it and validate that there are no residual cancer cells left behind. Residual cells at the incision margin of the tissue removed during surgery are associated with tumor recurrence and poor prognosis for […] Read More >
CT Image Single Display and Contrast Enhancement
The Invention An improved algorithm for handling CT scan information which enables the display of all relevant anatomical features in a single image. Potential Applications CT scans are a basic tool of most medical centers and are in constant use. An improved algorithm for simultaneous viewing of all relevant anatomical features would not only save […] Read More >
An MRI technique for imaging of pathologies of collagen, myelin and amyloid plaques
The TechnologyCharacterization of pathologies related to macromolecules (MM) can now be carried out in a more comprehensive manner using these new MRI sequences. For example: Collagen in connective tissue and myelin in the nerves of brain and spinal cord are imaged with intensity proportional to the amount of MM. These pulsing sequences emphasize white matter […] Read More >
3D Flexible Electrode for Electrochemical Cell Diagnostics
TechnologyA compact 3D electrochemical sensor constructed on a pliant substrate for in-vitro and in-vivo measurements of cells and tissues. The device includes a specially designed sensing layer containing reference and measurement electrodes that are connected to contact pads on the back side of the device by uniquely designed via interconnects. The sensor is enclosed in […] Read More >
3D Bioprinting of Tumor Models for Personalized Drug Screening and Disease Modeling
This technology aims to provide a three-dimensional (3D) bioprinted tumor model based on natural and synthetic polymers containing several types of cells, which resembles cancer tissue. Our 3D-bioprinted tumor model has potential to predict the clinical outcome of a treatment compared to the other existing solutions, which either rely solely on genetic profiling or do […] Read More >
Antibody-Based Biosensor Diagnostic tool for Pathogenic Bacteria Detection
UNMET NEED• Antibiotic resistance crisis is driven by extensive and inappropriate usage of antibiotics and is predicted to result in an annual death toll of 10 million people by 2050. The ability to provide a rapid and accurate surveillance and diagnosis of multiple-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria is pivotal to the efficiency of controlling the growing crisis. […] Read More >
New Chemiluminescent Protease Probe for Rapid, Sensitive, and Inexpensive Detection of Live Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Tuberculosis (TB) is a top-ten cause of death worldwide. Successful treatment is often limited by insufficient diagnostic capabilities, especially at the point of care in low-resource settings. The ideal diagnostic must be fast, be cheap, and require minimal clinical resources while providing high sensitivity, selectivity, and the ability to differentiate live from dead bacteria.OUR SOLUTION• We […] Read More >
Novel method for assessing sublethal genetic damage in sperm
Targeting Human Brain Cells With Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) for a Prospective Therapeutic Approach
The AAV therapeutic approach for various central nervous system (CNS) illnesses has been rapidly growing. Unfortunately, existing present technologies utilize AAV administration that is injected locally into the brain. This process requires a high level of expertise and is not applicable in more diffused brain targets like cortex and stiratum. Systemic administration of AAV vectors through […] Read More >
