Capillary-Channeled Polymer Fibers for Isolating Exosomes
This capillary-channeled polymer (C-CP) fiber technology is a cost efficient and highly selective method to isolate exosomes facilitating widespread use of these cellular fragments for biomarker research, medical diagnostics, and targeted delivery of therapeutics. Exosomes are lipid membrane-derived vesicles secreted by most types of cells, which hold...

Multi-Needle Roller for Cell Seeding
Seeding cells within scaffolds or tissues hold great potential for regenerative medicine projects. Until now, cells have been either placed on top of scaffolds, creating multiple layers of superficial cells, or injected manually with a syringe inside the tissues, generating large boluses of cells. None of these approaches generated the homogenous, high...

Electron Donors for Environmental Remediation using Rendered Animal Co-Products
Rendered animal co-products can be used as electron donors to stimulate microbial respiration of reducible environmental contaminants including the chlorinated solvent trichloroethylene (TCE) and the metal hexavalent chromium. This strategy allows for inexpensive treatment, and increased contaminant transformation rates. More than 100 million people...

Functionalized Modification of Polymers for HPLC
These polymer fibers, used as stationary phases in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), enable a high level of selectivity and throughput, thus increasing efficiency. Chromatography is a method used by scientists to separate organic and inorganic compounds for further analysis. Currently, over 60% of chemical analysis worldwide is done in...

Fiber Bundle Cartridges as Chemical Separation Media
Monolithic cartridges including a plurality of nominally aligned polymer fibers can be used as stationary phase materials for liquid chromatography separations. Bundles of fibers are packed together so as to form capillary channels between the fibers. Different polymer compositions permit the “chemical tuning” of the separation process....

MicroCED: Microbiological-based Chlorinated Ethene Destruction
MicroCED is an innovative treatment technology for the containment, detoxification and elimination of chlorinated ethenes (CE) in the environment. MicroCED consists of several novel microorganisms that are new to science. MicroCED rapidly and completely converts CE to non-toxic, safe end products without production or accumulation of toxic by-products....
