Atropine Autoinjector Reaches FDA Approval Safeguarding Troops from Nerve Agents
The Atropine Autoinjector initially received Emergency Use Authorization from the FDA in April 2017. Atropine is one of the most commonly used drugs for the treatment of chemical nerve agent poisoning. With the approved Atropine Autoinjector, U.S. troops can rapidly inject atropine into the thigh muscle following nerve agent exposure.
New Biosensors For Implantable Sensing
Biosensors are devices that can detect biological molecules in air, water, or blood. They are widely used in drug development, medical diagnostics, and biological research. The growing need for continuous, real-time monitoring of biomarkers in diseases like diabetes is currently driving efforts to develop efficient and portable biosensor devices.
Nanomachine Robot Goes To Battle With Tuberculosis
The Brock team’s latest technology builds on an earlier version of the microscopic robot — called the three-dimensional DNA nanomachine — they created in 2016 to detect diseases in a blood sample within 30 minutes.
Injection Molding Medical Capability Investment by Graham Partners
Private equity firm Graham Partners has entered injection molded medical goods with an investment in Medbio LLC of Grand Rapids, Mich. Graham Partners acquired a majority interest in Medbio, effective July 18 for undisclosed terms, according to Graham managing principal Joe Heinmiller.
Artificial Embryo Created From Stem Cells Achieves Gastrulation
The creation of artificial embryos has moved a step forward after an international team of researchers used mouse stem cells to produce artificial embryo-like structures capable of ‘gastrulation’, a key step in the life of any embryo.
Drug-Filled Nanocarriers United With Immune Cells
Scientists at the Mainz University Medical Center and the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (MPI-P) have developed a new method to enable miniature drug-filled nanocarriers to dock on to immune cells, which in turn attack tumors.
Prosthetic Heart Valves Design Inspired by Dragonfly Larvae
The dragonfly larva is the only insect that uses jet propulsion to move and the only arthropod known to use reciprocal jetting—inhaling and exhaling through the same orifice—for underwater breathing,” says Roh, the lead author of a paper on the larval jets that was published online by the journal Bioinspiration & Biomimeticson May 30.
Moderna Opens Manufacturing Facility for mRNA Therapeutics
the manufacturing facility was designed to achieve Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification. Moderna is limiting energy use with advanced energy metering, LED lighting, and systems designed to reduce water usage by up to 25%.
Ancient Biocrust’s Microorganisms Helped Seas With Nitrogen
Like our oceans, today’s continents are brimming with life. Yet billions of years ago, before the advent of plants, continents would have appeared barren. These apparently vacant land forms were believed to play no role in the early biochemical clockwork known as the nitrogen cycle, which most living things depend on for survival. Researchers discover ancient biocrusts played an important role in the nitrogen cycle.
Gold Nanoparticles Could Improve Solar Energy Storage
gold nanoparticles, coated with a semiconductor, can produce hydrogen from water over four times more efficiently than other methods – opening the door to improved storage of solar energy and other advances that could boost renewable energy use and combat climate change, according to Rutgers University–New Brunswick researchers.
Water Evaporation Controlled by Graphene
The study, carried out by a team from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Collaborative Innovation Center of Quantum Matter (Beijing), looked at the interactions of water molecules with various graphene-covered surfaces.
Kinesin Proteins Study New Doors Open for Cancer Drug Innovation
The research involved kinesin proteins: tiny, protein-based motors that interact with microtubules inside cells. The motors convert chemical energy into mechanical energy to generate the directional movements and forces necessary to sustain life. Microtubules are microscopic tubular structures that have two distinct ends: a fast-growing plus end and a slow-growing minus ends. Microtubules help make up a cell’s skeleton.

Since the first DNA cloning experiments almost a half century ago, biotechnology techniques such as genetic engineering have developed to allow for the creation of engineered biological molecules. The biotechnology field focuses on designing and innovating new and different biological microorganisms and cells, constantly finding ways to create new gene formations and figure out how they work. The research and development of gene formations often happens in transgenic animals and plants. The biotechnology revolution has brought on an abundance of commercial applications that include gene cloning, directed mutagenesis, DNA sequencing, RNA interference, biomolecule labeling and detection, and nucleic acid amplification.
