Developing 48V through-the-road hybrid vehicle technology
Controlled Power Technologies, in partnership with Ricardo, Tata Motors European Technical Centre (TMETC) and Provector, is applying its low voltage electric motor technology to the rear driveline of a B-segment city car. The consortium has secured a funding award from Innovate UK, the UK’s innovation agency, who will contribute £1.8m of the total £3.4m investment.
Nanoparticles could treat intestinal inflammation
Nanoparticles designed to block a cell-surface molecule that plays a key role in inflammation could be a safe treatment for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), according to researchers in the Institute for Biomedical Sciences at Georgia State University and Southwest University in China.The scientists developed nanoparticles, or microscopic particles, to reduce the expression of CD98, a glycoprotein that promotes inflammation. Their findings are pu...
Machine makes prescription drugs 'on demand'
Scientists have created a compact machine that can churn out thousands of doses of prescription medication in a day—putting the capabilities of a drug-manufacturing plant into a device the size of a kitchen refrigerator. Experts said the advance could eventually allow on-the-spot drug production in special circumstances—on the battlefield, during epidemics, after natural disasters, or in cases where a drug is needed for a rare medical...
Scientists invent a thermometer for the nanoscale
The IBM lab responsible for inventing the scanning tunneling microscope and the atomic force microscope has invented another critical tool for helping us understand the nanoworld.Accurately measuring the temperature of objects at the nanoscale has been challenging scientists for decades. Current techniques are not accurate and they typically generate artifacts, limiting their reliability.
