Interferon Induced proteins with Tetratricopeptide repeats (IFIT) proteins are a family of antiviral proteins that have been shown to confer immunity against viral infection. IFIT proteins have been shown to be conserved in vertebrates, with homologues having been identified in several organisms

The need for accurate, rapid and sensitive detection of bio-molecules is becoming ever more pressing. The aforementioned are needed in several industries, ranging from clinical diagnostics and screening to assessing microbial contamination in water and even plant disease diagnostics, to name just a

A scalable pneumatic cushion features an array of pressure-controlled air cells, each equipped with a pressure sensor for closed-loop control. This allows for precise regulation of pressure in high-risk areas, promoting blood flow and reducing localized pressure. The system uses a microcontroller to
Advances in diagnostic technologies have expanded the use of saliva as a valuable testing medium. Saliva collection is simple, non-invasive, and avoids many of the challenges associated with blood or sputum sampling, making it highly suitable for point-of-care and community-based screening. As part
