Novel Microneedle Drug Delivery Patch for Burning Fat Medicine

Novel Microneedle Drug Delivery Patch for Burning Fat

January 2nd, 2018 Obesity results from excess white fat storage, making it difficult to treat because the effectiveness of diet, exercise, and systemic anti-obesity agents is limited, and in the latter case may cause serious side effects. As a result, researchers are investigating innovative strategies for localized delivery of fat burning compounds via...
Ingestible Biosensor for Tracking Opioid Use Following Acute Injury Anesthesiology

Ingestible Biosensor for Tracking Opioid Use Following Acute Injury

November 28th, 2017 Opioids, such as oxycodone, are routinely prescribed for short-term pain management following pain-inducing injuries.  However, their use is associated with the development of tolerance and addiction, due in part to dosage mismanagement by patients.  Recently, the FDA approved the use of the first digital pill administered in...
Novel Smartphone App for Bilirubin, Pancreatic Cancer Screening Medicine

Novel Smartphone App for Bilirubin, Pancreatic Cancer Screening

August 31st, 2017 Pancreatic cancer patients have one of the lowest five-year survival rates, due in large part to the disease going undiagnosed in its early and intermediate stages. There are no overt symptoms during the critical early period, and non-invasive screening tools for identifying early pancreatic tumors before they metastasize have yet...
CT Perfusion Technology Monitors Blood Flow to Predict Ovarian Cancer Treatment Response Radiology

CT Perfusion Technology Monitors Blood Flow to Predict Ovarian Cancer Treatment Response

June 30th, 2017 Patients with advanced ovarian cancer have a very high relapse rate following primary treatment, with 60 to 85% of patients relapsing.  Treatment planning is an important factor in patient care, but few reliable options exist to help physicians accurately plan treatment and select patients who are appropriate candidates for a specific...
Novel Flexible Glove-Based Biosensor for Detecting Organophosphates Public Health

Novel Flexible Glove-Based Biosensor for Detecting Organophosphates

March 23rd, 2017 Organophosphates are toxic chemicals used as pesticides in agricultural practice and as nerve agents in biological warfare. Exposure to organophosphates can cause severe illness or death if appropriate safety measures are not taken. Rapid and accurate point-of-use detection of organophosphate pesticides or nerve agents would improve...
Novel Micro and Nanofiber Microenvironment for Stem Cell Cultures Nanomedicine

Novel Micro and Nanofiber Microenvironment for Stem Cell Cultures

March 15th, 2017 Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are widely studied for their applications in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. hPSCs have the potential to self-renew and differentiate into a wide variety of specialized cells, processes that are heavily influenced by the extracellular microenvironment. Traditionally, hPSCs are grown...
Blood-Monitoring Disposable Smart Patch Delivers Blood Thinners On-Demand Medicine

Blood-Monitoring Disposable Smart Patch Delivers Blood Thinners On-Demand

November 30th, 2016 Thrombosis, the occlusion of vasculature by blood clots, is a precursor to debilitating conditions including stroke, pulmonary embolism, and heart attack. Blood thinners such as heparin or Coumadin are used to treat thrombosis, but necessitate ongoing blood tests for precise drug dosing. Researchers from the University of North...
MEMOIR: A Novel Method for Understanding The Life History of Cells Genetics

MEMOIR: A Novel Method for Understanding The Life History of Cells

November 22nd, 2016 A recent study in the journal Nature has provided proof of principle for a novel method which enables the encoding of a cell’s history in its genome and the subsequent readout of the information. Called MEMOIR (Memory by Engineered Mutagenesis with Optical In situ Readout), the new technique provides insight into cellular patterns of...

CE Mark Approval for Moleculight i:X Wound Imaging Device Initiates Product Commercialization in the EU

Medgadget previously reported on Health Canada’s approval of the wound care imaging device, MolecuLight i:X. Canadian fluorescence image-guidance technology company MolecuLight Inc continues to reach milestones for both the company and the field of wound care. MolecuLight has now been granted CE Mark approval for the MolecuLight i:X...
Synthetic Cardiac Valves, Arteries, and Veins for Practicing Surgical Techniques Cardiac Surgery

Synthetic Cardiac Valves, Arteries, and Veins for Practicing Surgical Techniques

September 1st, 2016 A recent publication in the journal Cardiovascular Engineering and Technology describes the production and utilization of synthetic heart valves, arteries, and veins by surgeons and medical residents to practice and improve their cardiac bypass surgical skills, without the use of animal or human cadaver tissues. Researchers from the...

uDISCO: A Novel Tissue Clearing Technique for Visualization of Central Nervous System

September 1st, 2016 The three-dimensional nature of biological specimens poses a challenge to whole organ imaging, due to the obscuring effects of light scatter. Innovative tissue-clearing techniques, combined with advances in imaging of cleared tissue, have increasingly been under investigation as substitutes for histological methods. Researchers from...
