Polio Vaccine New Single Injection Approach
To create a single-injection vaccine, the MIT team encapsulated the inactivated polio vaccine in a biodegradable polymer known as PLGA. This polymer can be designed to degrade after a certain period of time, allowing the researchers to control when the vaccine is released.
Quantum Dots Destroy Lung Cancer Cells
Nanoparticles derived from tea leaves inhibit the growth of lung cancer cells, destroying up to 80% of them, new research by a joint Swansea University and Indian team has shown. The team made the discovery while they were testing out a new method of producing a type of nanoparticle called quantum dots. These are tiny particles which measure less than 10 nanometres. A human hair is 40,000 nanometres thick.
Cancer Trap Invention Kills Cancer Cells
The University of Texas at Arlington has successfully patented in Europe an implantable medical device that attracts and kills circulating cancer cells that was invented by a faculty member. This cancer trap can be used for early diagnosis and treatment of metastasized cancer.
Topical Nanotechnology Diagnoses Skin Disease
A new study published in the journal Nature Biomedical Engineering documents a novel diagnostic technology that exploits topically applied nanotechnology to detect skin tissue biomarkers for diagnosis. This concept is demonstrated by noninvasively imaging connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) mRNA in abnormal scar cells, whole tissue, and animal models.
New Sensor for Brain Research
A new reagent discovered by research scientists at St George’s, University of London has shown real-time brain behaviour in more detail than ever before.The sensor, iGluu, will now be made available to other researchers who may be working on either the fundamental properties of neuronal signalling or on neurodegenerative disease such as Huntington’ and Alzheimer’s disease. The sensor will help reveal what goes wrong with glutamate signalling in these conditions.
Supersonic Waves Improves Heat Transport in Insulators
Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory made the first observations of waves of atomic rearrangements, known as phasons, propagating supersonically through a vibrating crystal lattice—a discovery that may dramatically improve heat transport in insulators and enable new strategies for heat management in future electronics devices.
New Aseptic API Line Facility
The aseptic API line facility, which was officially opened today by AMRI leaders and local officials, was announced in November 2017 and enhances capacity at the site while complementing AMRI’s other aseptic API manufacturing plants in Bon Encontre and Tonneins, France.
GVSU, Beaumont Health partner on medical device innovation
GVSU, Beaumont Health develop medical device for people with neuromuscular diseases. A group of engineering students from Grand Valley State University partnered with Beaumont Health to create a medical device that has the potential to improve the quality of life for people with neuromuscular diseases.
Adventus Ventures Medical Device Incubator
Adventus Ventures, LLC is a venture capital company focused on medical device startups. Adventus Ventures, an incubator of medical device companies, recently announced that it has completed the first round of financing for several medical device portfolio companies.
Life Sciences Cleanroom Manufacturing Facility
Ecolab Inc., the global leader in water, hygiene and energy technologies and services, continues to expand its Greensboro campus with construction of a life sciences cleanroom manufacturing facility to support the launch of the company’s Life Sciences solution portfolio in North America.
Bioelectronic Medicine for a healthier future
Feinstein Institute researchers publish analysis about link between neuroscience and immunity. A detailed account of how the central and peripheral nervous systems signal the immune system could lead to new therapies — including those in the new field of bioelectronic medicine.
Compounding Pharmacy Safety violations
In December, the Food and Drug Administration issued a thorough inspection report on PharMEDium’s Tennessee plant that resulted in a pause in pharmaceutical production, until otherwise permitted. PharMEDium, one of the nation’s largest compounding pharmacy companies, is owned by AmerisourceBergen. It supplies medications to about 77% of hospitals nationwide.

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.
