A high yield vaccine seed strain is required for timely vaccine manufacture and is thus a critical component of a successful influenza vaccination program. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon... A Method for Targeting Nanoparticles to Bacterial Biofilm Infections using Bacterial Surface Proteins Published: 10/2/2024 Inventor(s): Nicholas Fitzkee, Dhanush Amarasekara Background Biofilm‑related infections are associated with high mortality and morbidity, combined with increased hospital stays and overall treatment costs. Traditional antibiotics play an essential role in controlling biofilms; however, they are becoming less effective due to the emergence of drug‑resistant bacterial strains. The need to treat biofilms... mRNA Treatment to Induce Expression of Relaxin for Reproductive Applications in Animals and Humans Published: 9/9/2024 Inventor(s): Peter Ryan, Amelia Woolums, Elmer King, Merrilee Thoresen, Federico Hoffmann Background Female cattle and other animals, including humans, sometimes have trouble delivering their young (dystocia) at the time they are due because of inadequate relaxation or size of the mother's reproductive tract. Such situations can lead to difficult deliveries that may be harmful to the mother or the offspring. They may also require surgery... Mobile Markerless Motion Capture for Movement Data Collection in All Environments Published: 12/6/2024 Inventor(s): Reuben Burch, Michael Thompson, Charles Freeman, Anthony Luczak, John Middleton, Harish Chander, David Saucier, John Ball Overview of Technology Mobile markerless motion capture is a technology that collects biomechanical data by using drones and cameras which are synced to capture human or animal movement. Background Mobile markerless motion capture is the future of human performance data collection outside of the laboratory. Currently, Markered motion capture is considered... Increased Expression of Hyperpolarization-activated Cyclic Nucleotidgated Channel 4 (HCN4) in Airway Muscle During Naturally Occuring Asthma-like Disease Directs Pharmacologic Modulation of Funny Current Pathways to Modify Bronchial Tone...
