The fusion of CBD to spider dragline silk proteins to form silk fibers and silk-cellulose composites....

Our group is researching novel bioadhesive strategies that allow application in wet environments, and an on-demand adhesive mechanism. ...

We have developed an environmentally-friendly, non-toxic peptide-based mixture which can serve as an antibacterial cleaning agent for killing many types of bacteria rapidly, and efficiently degrading mature biofilm structures....

The researcher suggests tackling the dental implant infections by a novel peptide of six amino acids. The peptide forms a bi-functional coating. On one hand it prevents the adsorption of bacterial proteins and the development of biofilm, on the other hand it promotes the attachment of mammalian cells (osteoclast) on the implant....

Using injectable polymeric implants – liquids that solidify in the vicinity of the fracture. The solidified implants are expected to perform several functions: isolate the fracture site, allow adherence, proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells present in the fracture and periosteum....

The invented compound class against malaria inhibits the growth erythrocytic (human red blood cell) stages of plasmodium para- sites. Since the compounds are structurally unrelated to existing anti-malaria drugs, the risk of cross-resistance is low....

Cluster8 Cluster10a Cathepsin Targeted Computed Tomography X-Ray Contrast Agents for Molecular Imaging of Cancer and atherosclerosis (can also be used for Arthritis and others)...

A new method for preparing polymeric or hybrid microcapsules using oil-in-oil emulsions, enabling the encapsulation of various hydrophilic and hydrophobic materials....

The researchers developed a novel microencapsulation technology. The technology is based on oil-in-oil emulsification and non-aqueous sol-gel chemistry that enables the encapsulation of various hydrophilic and hydrophobic active materials. The technology make it possible to encapsulate water-sensitive or air-sensitive actives that previously couldn't  be encapsulated by any other microencapsulation methods....

We have developed a non-toxic, ecologically-friendly anti-bacterial agent that prevents bacterial diseases in agricultural crops, including in fruit and vegetables – caused mainly by pathogenic bacteria. Such diseases are commonly treated with copper-based pesticides, which has resulted in the development of numerous copper-resistant bacterial strains....
