Jellyfish׳ Collagen-Based Smart Wound Dressing with Antibacterial Properties
Collagen-based dressing in wounds greatly benefits the healing process. Unfortunately, most collagen is extracted from bovine tissues, which bears a significant risk of transmitting various biological contaminations. Moreover, the collagen extraction process from bovine tissue involves time and cost-consuming steps, reducing the total collagen yield and increasing the overall cost of goods. In addition, the […] Read More >
Anti-Oxidation Agent to be Incorporated Into Cosmetics Leading to More Stable and Longer Shelf-Life Products
Oxidation is the reaction of Oxygen with a wide array of reactants. In cosmetics, product oxidation leads to spoilage of ingredients used in the manufacturing products, the inactivation of oxygen-sensitive enzymes, shortening of product shelf-life, and discolorations of end-product. Self-assembling peptide-based hydrogels are simple hydrogels that can be combined with a wide variety of ingredients […] Read More >
Protection of Oxygen-Sensitive-Enzymes by Peptide Hydrogel
Molecular oxygen (O2) is a highly reactive oxidizing agent harmful to many biological and industrial systems. A simple encapsulation in a protective aqueous environment of O2 -sensitive reactions is of need. Self-assembling peptide-based hydrogels are simple hydrogels that can be combined with a wide variety of reagents and are able to encage O2 and significantly limit its […] Read More >
Novel Anti-Tumor Response treatment targeting ErbB receptors and Nucleolin interactions
ErbBs subfamily receptors are mediators of cell growth signals. They have long been associated with a wide variety of lung, ovarian, colon, breast, prostate, and other carcinomas. Nucleolin is a major nucleolar protein of growing eukaryotic cells and is present on the cell surface of a range of cancers. Recently, a robust oncogenic interaction between […] Read More >
PNA – Self Assembled peptide nanostructures for OLED / Security applications
TechnologyWe developed nanostructures based on Peptide-Nucleic Acid (PNA) derivatives which show highly promising performance characteristics. The unique electroluminescence/photoluminescence materials can be used as emissive materials in manufacturing Organic Light-Emitting Diodes (OLED) with high emission efficiencies, tunable colors, and improved charge-transport and film-forming properties. The NeedSignificant progress has been made over the past decade in producing […] Read More >
Self-Assembling Aromatic di-Peptide Materials for Cosmetic Applications
TechnologyOrganic, aromatic di-peptide self-assemble into close-caged structures of tubes, spheres and hydrogels. These exhibit excellent properties such as stability, solubility, transparency and rigidness alongside the basic peptide features utilized in cosmetics. The materials can be prepared as powder or hydrogel and be easily mixed with common cosmetic foundations. In addition to these native characteristics, methods […] Read More >
