• ·
• Project Size : 250,000 - 1,000,000 €

We are looking for approaches to engineer and optimize organisms (microbial and plant) for production and/or purification of relevant biomolecules in a non-trial-and-error format. It is believed that starting from a waste stream will be a more cost-effective solution. We are also interested in plant- or algae-based solutions that are scalable and cost effective. What We Are Looking For: • Strain engineering approaches that achieve target molecule production targets across multiple molecule classes in significantly less time versus the industry average • Host engineering capabilities in non-model systems • Scale up platforms/methods that are amenable to commodity scale ingredients • Downstream processing methods/technologies that facilitate continuous extraction and/or re-use of extractive reagents • Approaches that leverage feedstocks separate from the food chain

Smart bench for ambulances and air-ambulances

• Patents for licensing

The Department of Nursing of the University of Alicante has designed a new ambulances platform, which in addition to the current functions of the platforms allocating the stretchers in vehicles, provides the exact value of the weight of the patient, in real time, facilitating the calculation of precise doses of drugs, fluids, mechanical ventilation, etc. This platform has digitals sensors placed parallel along its lower side bars, connected to a digital transmitter and a screen via bluetooth or Wi-Fi. The design of the electronic device can be configured in a basic mode, just showing the weight of the patient allowing to health professionals to better calculate the correct doses of drugs, etc., by themselves; or its advanced mode, also detailing the exact dose of drugs, fluids, parameters of invasive mechanical ventilation, amount of energy, etc., automatically calculated with an integrated software. Companies interested in the commercial exploitation of the invention through a patent license agreement are sought.

The hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated #HCN channels are voltage-gated ion channels that play a vital role in regulating the activity of many cell types. Extensive research has shown that HCN channels may be a valuable target for the treatment of a number of neurological disorders. The Hyperpolarization-Activated Cyclic Nucleotide Gated Channel Blocker Library by Otava Chemicals https://bit.ly/3CBSKDK may be the perfect basis for antianginal, antiarrhythmic, neuropathic, etc. research and drug discovery projects.

LSF: B2B Chemtech, UK & NL, Angel round with lead investor, ≈40% funding secured

• Investment Opportunities in Startups and Spinoffs

LSF is a Chemtech business based in Amersham, UK, with extensive industry experience. A B2B operation, generating revenue from customers Proof of Concept (PoC) testing and a roadmap to deliver the first demonstrator facility. The LSF process accepts used solid or liquid, hydrocarbon-containing, feedstock materials. The process gasifies the feedstock and then using a liquid electrolyte, oxidation and saturation reactions are initiated. These reactions produce a recovered, saturated condensate and a solid, raw Carbon Black output. LSF's recovered condensate is of a higher quality and has far lower contaminants than its competitors and the rCB has been tested as suitable for vehicle and industrial rubber components. LSF has patented the core technology and the novel application of electrochemical processing of hydrocarbon-containing feedstocks. UK & US patents granted with EU patent expected to be granted in Q1, 24.
