Prefusion Coronavirus Spike Proteins and Their Use Coronaviruses (CoVs) can cause severe respiratory disease with high fatality rates in humans. The 2002-2003 SARS-CoV epidemic resulted in 8098 cases and 744 deaths, and MERS-CoV, which emerged in 2012, has resulted in 2144 cases and over 750 deaths as of March 2018. Currently, there are no effective prophylactic or therapeutic measures, and because...

Optical Tweezers Feedback The nanoprobe is a free-floating 3D force probe for single molecule research. The unique active feedback sensor tracks and controls the position and movement of the nanoprobe. Additionally, fast and dynamic force measurement of multiple objects is enabled by selective read-out of active pixels within the sensor array.IMAGES  Published: 6/8/2022   |   Inventor(s): Stanley Botchway, Mark Lyndon Prydderch, Michael Towrie, Renato Andrea Danilo Turchetta, Andrew David Ward Keywords(s): 05.k.

Droplet Deformation Shaped microscopic particles find application in a variety of industries like paint, food, photonics, etc. STFC has developed an innovative technology which provides a unique capability for the deformation of droplets (oils, polar solvents, gels, etc.) through the use of optical traps generated by laser beams. Once the droplets are shaped, they may... Published: 6/8/2022   |   Inventor(s): Colin Bain, Christopher Mellor, Andrew David Ward Keywords(s): 02.g. Materials Technology, 03.d.
