Flexible Packaging Cleanroom Expansion
Today PPC Flexible Packaging announced it has completed the first phase of a greater than $2 million facilities and equipment investment aimed at expanding and further upgrading production capacities for its Precision Clean™ cleanroom packaging business. The company purchased its Buffalo Grove based business as Fisher Container Corporation in February 2017.
Herpes Linked to Alzheimer’s Disease
“It was as long ago as 1991 when we discovered that, in many elderly people infected with HSV1, the virus is present also in the brain, and then in 1997 that it confers a strong risk of Alzheimer’s disease in the brain of people who have a specific genetic factor.”
Neural Circuits Controlled By Sound Waves
In the maze of our brains, there are various pathways by which neural signals travel. These pathways can go awry in patients with neurological and psychiatric diseases and disorders, including epilepsy, Parkinson’s, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Researchers have developed new therapeutic strategies to more precisely target neural pathways involved in these conditions, but they often require surgery.
Gene Editing Therapy Made Safer With New CRISPR Technique
Scientists from The University of Texas at Austin took an important step toward safer gene editing cures for life-threatening disorders, from cancer to HIV to Huntington’s disease, by developing a technique that can spot editing mistakes a popular tool known as CRISPR makes to an individual’s genome. The research appears today in the journal Cell.
Immune Cells Boosted by Nanoparticles
By developing nanoparticle “backpacks” that hold immune-stimulating drugs, and attaching them directly to T cells, the MIT engineers showed in a study of mice that they could enhance those T cells’ activity without harmful side effects. In more than half of the treated animals, tumors disappeared completely.
Biotechnology Innovation Platform Launched by HKU
Biotechnology Innovation Platform Launch expected to become a national-level technology startup incubator. It aims to host at least 50 spinoff companies and commercialize the results of at least 10 HKU research projects within five years. The platform will focus on key areas including cancer treatment, medical devices and infectious disease treatment.
Realtime Flexible Sensor Tests and Cures Inflammation
Realtime Flexible Sensor for Healing HKU Engineering and Medicine collaborate and develop a real-time flexible sensor that makes inflammation testing and curing 30 times faster Different from the inorganic counterparts like silicon, organic semiconductors can operate...
Smart Bandages Monitor and Tailor Treatment for Chronic Wounds
Smart bandages designed to monitor and tailor treatment for chronic wounds Smart Bandages with integrated pH and temperature sensors and electronically triggered drug release are designed to improve healing A team of engineers led by Tufts University has developed a...
Osteoarthritis Pain Eased by Graphene Foam Suggested by Research
Boise State researchers believe graphene foam-enhanced cartilage could one day be used to treat the joint pain caused by osteoarthritis as well as prevent the need for joint replacement. Osteoarthritis is incurable and affects half the U.S. population over the age of 65.
Alzheimer’s Disease Study Suggests Viral Beginnings
More than a century after its discovery, no effective prevention or treatment exists for this progressive deterioration of brain tissue, memory and identity. With more people living to older ages, there is a growing need to clarify Alzheimer’s disease risk factors and disease mechanisms and use this information to find new ways in which to treat and prevent this terrible disorder.
Computer diagnoses Parkinson’s with behavioral tracking
Thousands of people do not know they have Parkinson’s disease. Eric Horvitz wants them to be able to find out — before the incurable neurodegenerative disorder progresses to its later stages. In his perfect world, they wouldn’t have to interrupt their daily routines. They could stay in their homes and offices, working on their computers, and their online activity would eventually trigger a message: A visit to the doctor is in order.
The beating brain: A video captures the organ’s rhythmic pulsations
A study recently published in the journal Magnetic Resonance in Medicine and co-authored by Stanford life-science research assistant Itamar Terem, then-postdoc Samantha Jane Holdsworth, PhD, (now at the University of Auckland) and several other Stanford colleagues describes a new imaging method that, by means of a kind of strobe-action amplification technique, is able to visually blow up the minute heartbeat-induced pulsations of the brain to produce mind-boggling video sequences such as the one you’ve hopefully taken a peek at here.

Pharmaceutical Cleanroom News and Advancements
The Pharmaceutical Cleanroom Industry or medicine industry is the commercial industry that discovers, develops, produces, and markets drugs or pharmaceuticals for various uses and formations of medicines and medications. The pharmaceutical cleanroom industry produces the controlled aseptic cleanroom environments where by the pharmaceutical products are created and packaged. Pharmaceutical companies create a various array of products for different applications.
The primary developments of Pharmaceutical companies are generic medications, branded pharmaceuticals and medical devices. The pharmaceutical companies are subject to a variety of laws and regulations that govern the patenting, testing, safety, efficacy and marketing of drugs. Cleanroom Connect provides the latest Pharmaceutical Cleanroom News from various pharmaceutical and biopharma industries.

The Pharmaceutical Cleanroom Industry is a booming industry, and production has been growing exponentially over the past few decades as innovations in the medical field have taken off. This increasing production has also led to increasing demands for safety features installed in industrial pharmaceutical manufacturing plants and storage areas. These safety procedures ensure the health of employees as well as the safe preservation of products that are stored for later use by consumers.
