To view macromolecules within living cells using a light microscope, improvement in resolution is required. Methods for achieving super-resolution have been proposed, however, super-resolving microscopes have had little impact. The reasons are not only high cost and instrumental complexity but each ...
Cancer is still a leading cause of death worldwide accounting for about 13% of all deaths. Molecular chemotherapy can be highly effective in treatment of cancer, but there is a problem with specificity and selectivity in gene delivery. Hence, there is a real need for effective targeted systems to de...
Nephropathic cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive disease. It is characterised by raised lysosomal levels of cystine in the cells of most organs. If untreated, the disease, results in death from renal failure by the second decade of life.Cysteamine, the treatment for cystinosis, posesses an offe...
Control of blood glucose levels through glucose measurement and insulin injection can reduce the occurrence of complications in diabetics. Methods such as the “finger-stick” technique, while relatively cheap, can be cumbersome and painful to use. In addition to diabetes, control of blood...
The single stage suture anchor insertion system is an orthopaedic technology developed at RGU which benefits both the surgeon and patients. The technology is an insertion tool which will results in a more convenient and faster way to insert suture anchors in bone.
A role for an orphan receptor in metastatic breast cancer has recently been discovered by researchers at the University of Aberdeen. The expression level of this receptor may be correlated with the invasiveness and metastatic potential of breast cancer cells. The receptor may be used as a biomarker ...
This technology developed at the University of Aberdeen relates to the discovery of mutation of a single gene in individuals with classical autism. The gene is involved in protein translation and offers possibilities in the diagnostic and therapeutic markets for those with autism spectrum disorder.
Researchers at The Robert Gordon University have engineered novel nano-sized polymeric solubilisers to encapsulate and deliver therapeutic agents such as peptides, proteins and water insoluble drugs. In the aqueous solution, these delivery systems form a protective core, which can trap and separate ...
An opportunity has arisen for a company to exploit commercially in partnership with Bioengineers at the University of Strathclyde a novel synovial joint bioreactor designed to support the growth and differentiation of human cells in vitro technology into functional replacement tissue constructs for ...
The technology, developed at the University of Aberdeen, relates to the MRI system which will cost significantly less than current equipment. Most existing magnetic resonance imagers are highly sophisticated, occupy a large amount of space and are costly to purchase and maintain. There are numerous...
