Stanching the free flow of blood from an injury remains a holy grail of clinical medicine. Controlling blood flow is a primary concern and first line of defense for patients and medical staff in many situations, from traumatic injury to illness to surgery. If control is not established within the first few minutes of a hemorrhage, further treatment and healing are impossible.
RTI Surgical Inc.™ (RTI), a leading global surgical implant company, announced that The Journal of Spinal Disorders & Techniques published a study online highlighting nanOss® clinical data results. NanOss is an advanced bone graft substitute that is composed of nano-structured hydroxyapatite granules and an open structured engineered collagen carrier.
University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) researcher Vladimir Zharov, Ph.D., D.Sc., recently was awarded a $1.5 million R01 grant by the National Institutes of Health to investigate his diagnostic concept — “In vivo reading written in blood” — with new stimuli-responsive nanoparticles circulating in blood.
Kansas State University researchers have developed a patented method of keeping mosquitoes and other insect pests at bay.
Nanomedicine is offering patients a growing arsenal of therapeutic drugs for a variety of diseases but often at a cost of thousands of dollars a month. Generics could substantially reduce the price tag for patients -- if only there were a well-defined way to make and regulate them. An article in Chemical & Engineering News (C&EN), the weekly newsmagazine of the American Chemical Society, details the challenges on the road to generic nanodrugs.
A research team headed by a professor from Virginia Commonwealth University has succeeded in improving a method used for determining the charge, size and shape of water-soluble molecules. Joseph Reiner, Department of Physics, Assistant professor of experimental nanoscience in the College of Humanities and Sciences and his co-workers have enumerated their discovery in an article "Enhanced Single Molecule Mass Spectrometry Via Charged Metallic Clusters," to be published in the Analytical Chemistry journal.
Titan Spine, a medical device surface technology company focused on developing innovative spinal interbody fusion implants, today announced that it has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to market its Endoskeleton® line of interbody fusion implants featuring its next-generation nanoLOCKTM surface technology.
Arcturus Therapeutics, Inc., a leading RNA medicines company pursuing orphan diseases, today announced it will present a poster at the 2nd International mRNA Health Conference being held on November 11-12, 2014 in Cambridge, MA.
EnGeneIC, Ltd., an emerging biopharmaceutical company focused on developing its proprietary EDV™ nanocell platform for the targeted delivery of cancer therapeutics and other therapeutic molecules, announced today that, together with the Asbestos Disease Research Institute (ADRI), it has initiated the first clinical trial evaluating its bacterially-derived and antibody-guided EDV™ nanocells packaged with microRNA for the treatment of patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM).
Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems have developed nanoscale swimming bodies which are able to navigate through complicated biological fluids.
