A cadaver dissection table that consists of a long tray designed to hold a cadaver. The tray has openings for fluid drainage and an angled section at one end. The table also has ventilation holes angled toward the flat part of the tray where the cadaver rests. Below the tray is a long bath, and

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

This technology introduces a diagnostic method and kit that detects inflammatory diseases by measuring fibrin amyloid microclots (FAM) and Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) found in patient blood. These two components often bind together to form microclot-associated NETs (MiNETs), which are

This technology provides a software solution that facilitates the rapid detection of viral particles in any electron micrograph. It utilizes a neural network approach to enable automated virus recognition. It is based on a convolutional neural network/machine-learning based image analysis tool, that

The Novel Peri-Intubation Containment Chamber (PICC) encompasses the principles of containment and extraction of virulent particles. It is a transparent sealed chamber, and its access ports allow rapid assembly in emergency situations. It further comprises disposable single-use gloves and a torso

Stellenbosch’s solution is a 2-component injectable hydrogel designed to block the vas deferens, thus preventing the passage of sperm cells. Unlike a vasectomy, this hydrogel is reversible, restoring fertility. The hydrogel is formulated from two aqueous polymer solutions with complementary reactive

The novel aspect of this patented technology lies in the specific combination of a functionalised nanocarrier ( A single-walled carbon nanotube with polyethylene glycol), targeting moiety (folic acid), and unique plant extract compounds (which and known for their medicinal properties and potential

Nanosene (Pty) Ltd‘s technology centres around the development of polymer tools tailored for membrane proteins (MP) drug target research. Unlike existing solutions, Nanosene’s polymers are optimised to isolate MPs, with the added benefit of customisation possibilities. This technology enables the

The technology integrates melatonin with bio-identical estrogen to counteract the pro tumorigenic effects associated with estrogen. The research conducted demonstrated that combining melatonin with estrogen diminishes estrogen’s proliferative impact on breast cancer cells and attenuates their

A computer implemented method, system or programme for combining a three-dimensional PET scan and a CT scan of a body into a combined image for segmentation, comprising of: Co-registering each of the PET scan and the CT scan as an input with reference to each other. Extracting metadata from the

Nanomedicine is revolutionising cancer care. By harnessing particles smaller than 100 nanometers, scientists can now target cancer cells with precision while sparing healthy tissue. These nano-scale delivery vehicles—like liposomes and dendrimers—boast a high surface area and customizable chemistry
