The team comprises Professors Yoshiki SAWA and Shigemi MIYAGAWA from the Cardiovascular Surgery Department of Osaka University, Dept. of Medicine. The study will be done with cell sheets from cardiomyocytes generated from iPS cells of each of the 3 patients considered. Compared with the myoblast sheets offered by Terumo Co. and derived from the patient’s […]
Massachusetts-based BioSurfaces has developed a process for producing nanofibrous materials out of commonly used FDA-approved polymers. These materials can incorporate drugs or other bioactive agents for localized release. Application of such technology has the potential to help prevent strictures and promote healing of fistulas, which are common manifestations of GI diseases. Takeda news release, July […]
The test at Osaka Institute of Industrial Science and Technology provided 50 % energy and 40 % heat recovery efficiency. The 2.2 × 4.3 × 2.8 m size fuel cell uses hydrogen obtained by reforming city gas containing methane as a main fuel component. It is seen as power generation equipment for food supermarkets, convenience […]

Dazu werden alle relevanten Daten des Kunden mittels SSL und TLS (transport layer security) in der Cloud von Amazon Web Services AWS gespeichert und können sowohl vom Kunden wie auch von medizinische Dienstleistern (Krankenhäuser, Ärzte, Apotheken) […]
In this technology, genetic code expansion is used to introduce drugs into antibody Fab fragments. As a proof of concept, the researchers introduced, by a degenerate codon, an azide-loaded lysine derivative at particular sites of Trastuzumab Fab fragments and loaded the fragments with emtansine (DM1), an anticancer drug. In-vitro tests with appropriate cell lines showed […]
Allerdings geht es dabei nur um die Energiesteuerung des Gebäudes, aber die hat es in sich. Die Energieversorgung für 16.000 m2 Laborfläche benötigt 55,3 TJoule/Jahr und erfolgt durch Geothermie. Das Energiemanagent erfolgt durch ein Energiemanagement-System im internationalen Standard IEEE 1888. Die Hocheffizienz-LED-Leuchten werden im Standby-Modus kabellos über Bewegungssensoren abgedunkelt. Energie zur Luftkühlung spart man durch […]
