Differentiation of Olfactory Mucosa Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells to Schwann Cells for Peripheral Nerve Repair

rder-collapse: collapse; } INV-21115 Background Peripheral nerve injuries resulting from trauma can be severe and permanently debilitating. Nerve autografting is the current gold standard for the treatment of such injuries. However, after grafting, in approximately one-third of cases, incomplete recovery with poor restoration of function is observed....

Transwell Millifluidic

INV-19073 Background Many common microfluidic devices experience issues with cell seeding due to their small dimensions and need to be seeded using perfusion. Similarly, the diffusion of nutrients, including oxygen, is limited in many common microfluidics also due to small dimensions. Additionally, while immunofluorescence is the main analytical assay...

Rapid, benchtop, manufacturing of microfluidic organs-on-chips with integrated electrodes using laser cut double sided adhesives, thermoplastics and inkjet printed silver electrodes

INV-18019 Background In recent years, there has been an increased interest in organs-on-chips technology as these physiological models may augment drug discovery. However, the lack of rapid, scalable, and facile manufacturing techniques limit the widespread use of organs-on-chips. Most intestine-on-a-chip models are manufactured via poly(dimethylsiloxane)...

Magnetic Microwires for Energy-Transporting Biomedical Applications

INV-19021 Background During the 1980s, amorphous magnetic microwires were widely used in biomedical devices. These wires are highly responsive magnetic material with unique magneto-elastic interactions, inexpensive and easy to produce in 1000s of meters. After the 1990s, new opportunities for biomedical advances elevated this class of materials...
