Functionalized Bacterial Cellulose Nanofiber-Based Battery Separators
Background Lithium metal batteries (LMBs), including lithium sulfur batteries (LSBs), use lithium metal as the anode instead of the conventional graphite anode used in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), and can deliver an energy density that is significantly higher than LIBs. In LMBs, the cathode can be the conventional cathode materials used in LIBs, or...

Zika Virus Vaccines
Zika virus (ZIKV) is a flavivirus transmitted by mosquitos that is strongly linked to neurological complications including Guillain-Barré syndrome, meningoencephalitis, and microcephaly. The association between active ZIKV infection during pregnancy and microcephaly and intrauterine growth retardation in the fetus has been confirmed in murine models...

Multifunctional Edible Nutraceutical Coating
The short shelf life of fresh produce, due in large part to microbial induced spoilage, is a serious problem that is costing the food industry billions a year. Many plants have natural phytochemicals which help confer resistance to microbial infections. Phytochemicals also have health benefits for humans, making them attractive candidates for coating...

Lithium selective organogels
Background Lithium (Li) is a highly reactive alkali metal with excellent heat and electrical conductivity properties, making it useful for a variety of industrial applications. Because of Li’s high reactivity, pure elemental Li is not found in nature but is present as a constituent of salts or other compounds found in brines, mineral ores, clays,...

Brain Targeted Nanoparticles for Therapeutic Delivery
Because the blood brain barrier (BBB) is a highly selective semipermeable complex, only about 2% of small molecules in the blood can penetrate it; most require transporters on the BBB. While this prevents many toxins, pathogens and other dangerous substances from crossing the BBB, it also makes it difficult to effectively treat various diseases including...

Self-neutralizing air-breathing thruster and method of neutralization
An ion-engine is the cutting edge for atmospheric air-breathing engines. The technology depends on ionizing and neutralizing atmospheric air particles which create thrust. This unique possibility makes it an ideal choice for very-low-orbit satellites. Very- low-orbit satellite capabilities have benefits such as higher resolution for images, weight...

Non-Invasive Plasma Discharge Tube Device for Treating Brain Tumors
Treating brain tumors, like glioblastoma, is challenging. Current glioblastoma drugs, Rapamycin and Temozolomide (TMZ), generally only extend life for a matter of months, are not very effective in treating recurring tumors, and have significant clinical toxicity. A novel Plasma Discharge Tube (PDT) device has the potential to be more effective and less...

PMU-Embedded Analytics for Online Event Detection and Classification in Power Grids
The energy requirement of the world is increasing exponentially every year. With the power demand sites concentrated in the region with the highest population density, energy production sites must be located remotely. This isolation requires lengthy and complicated grids to be designed and manufactured to transmit power over long distances. Grid failures...
