Researchers have developed a Virus-Like Particles (VLP) of a plant virus to use as a possible vehicle to deliver antibodies into a cell. These VLPs can enter mammalian cells, despite being of plant origin
Chemical engineering researchers have developed a device that simulates the blood filtering and ion transport functions of the human kidney. The technology could transform treatment options for people in the final stage of renal disease
Purdue University scientist Yuan Yao’s laboratory has developed a solution, a plant-based, highly potent nanoparticle called OHPP (octenylsuccinate hydroxypropyl phytoglycogen) that can solubilize and enable niclosamide
Researchers combined an intact rat spinal cord with a tissue-engineered, 3-D muscle system
Findings open up an alternative avenue for developing drugs for NASH patients, identifying new markers for early diagnosis, and better understanding the disease progression
International research team develops simple production process for acetone sensors
Researchers combine gas foaming, which is a blend of chemicals that induces gas bubbling, and 3-D molding technologies to quickly transform electrospun membranes into complex 3-D shapes for biomedical applications
Our bodies are home to hidden trees — complex, branching structures vital to the functions of organs including the lung, kidney, and pancreas
Nanoparticles, lasers help stimulate brain, play key role in virus project
