Novel Cryoelectrospun Scaffolds for Tissue Engineering and Methods for Manufacturing
Methods to produce 3D nanofibrous scaffolds that closely mimic soft-tissue stromal ECM using a unique cryoelectrospinning process. Background: The extracellular matrix (ECM) comprising the proteinaceous scaffold within the connective tissue is involved in regulating the function of parenchymal tissue in organs. When that becomes stiff, or fibrotic,...

Cost-Effective Single-Step Process for the Catalytic Conversion of Methane to Methanol/Formaldehyde
Unmet Need: Currently there is no technology available in the market capable of producing Dimethyl Ether (DME) from methane in a single reactor. DME is an attractive substitute for diesel due to its high cetane number, which is a measure of its ignitibility in compression ignition engines. In addition, DME’s quiet combustion and inability to form...
