Durable Skin-Mimetic Silicone Surface for Controlled Wetting, Transfer, and Friction
Surface technology for silicone that combines controlled microtexture and a covalently grafted hydrophilic polymer layer to tune wetting, fluid spreading, pinning, smearing, transfer, and friction. The durable covalent c...
Multilayer Nonwoven Architecture for Reducing Menstrual Stain Visibility
A modular multilayer nonwoven system that reduces menstrual stain visibility without chemical bleaching. Plasma-patterned topsheets enable rapid vertical fluid transport, gradient fibrous layers retain red blood cells an...
Novel quaternary ammonium compound-free antibacterial additives for surface disinfection
Water-soluble antibacterial additives synthesized in a one-step reaction from low-cost commercial materials. Effective against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria including superbugs at submicromolar concentrations,...
Anti-CLEC12A antibody therapy for multiple sclerosis and neuroinflammatory diseases
Novel therapeutic approach targeting CLEC12A-mediated myeloid cell trafficking across the blood-brain barrier to treat multiple sclerosis. Blocking antibodies to CLEC12A reduce disease severity, delay onset, and decrease...
Push/Pull Immunomodulation Liposomes for Antigen-Specific Treg Therapy in Anti-GBM Disease
A liposome-based immunomodulation platform that delivers antigen plus immune agonist and immunosuppressive drug combinations to generate tolerogenic dendritic cells and antigen-specific regulatory T cells, offering a tar...
Chitosan-based biodegradable adhesive from crab shell waste for multilayer food packaging
Biodegradable chitosan adhesive derived from crab shell waste for bonding PHA multilayer food packaging films. Offers a sustainable alternative to conventional adhesives with antimicrobial properties, mild-acid solubilit...
Bioretention nitrogen removal through soil amendments and hydraulic controls
Lab-scale bioretention system combining inexpensive adsorptive soil amendments with engineered hydraulic controls to achieve complete total nitrogen removal via sequential nitrification and denitrification. Targets urban...
Biomimetic restoration of the hair F-layer using covalently anchored 18-MEA
A novel biomimetic hair-repair platform that restores the natural lipid barrier of Type 4 hair using covalently attached 18-MEA. This approach aims to provide lasting hydration and humidity resistance by rebuilding the h...
Comparative method for hydrolysis monitoring in trialkoxysilanes
A comprehensive screening of spectroscopic and bulk-property methods to identify the most efficient approach for monitoring hydrolysis in organo-trialkoxysilane solutions, ensuring rapid, non-destructive, and scalable in...
HTS methodologies for studying immune-fibroblast crosstalk in wound healing
This innovative solution leverages high-throughput screening (HTS) methodologies to study the interaction between innate immune cells and fibroblasts in wound healing. It enables the analysis of scratch assays, ECM forma...
