Device for chromatic counting and quantification of organisms or particles in a suspensionThe execution of ecotoxicological tests with organisms in liquid medium, eg. Daphnia sp., requires its counting and characterization to evaluate several parameters. Currently the score is performed by technicians by direct observation (“naked eye”) of exposed organisms. This process is slow, tiring and subject to human error, and it can have adverse effects on visual acuity of the technical staff involved in the count. This patent, developed in a Portuguese university, solves the problem by counting and automating this process with gains in runtime and accuracy and enabling quick and efficient recount. It follows the optimization of the process of assessing the exposure to contaminants in tests that require the use of small-sized organizations. The university is looking for companies interested in the production and commercialization of this industrial equipment.

Device for detecting early cervical and oral cancerThis device is used for detection of most of the early cancerous and high-grade precancerous lesions of cervix and oral cavity. It gives a complete white light spectrum (equivalent to day light 5500-6000 K) and provides magnification with interchangeable lenses with optical power from 1 to 4 dioptre. The light of this instrument goes deeper inside the mucosal folds and provides a clear view with magnification for the differentiation of various categories of lesions. The aceto-white lesions of the cervix are screened by means of this device after the application of 5% freshly prepared acetic acid on cervix. The oral cavity is rinsed with 1% acetic acid solution for 20 seconds followed by water to remove the mucous and saliva and the examination is done. If any lesion suspicious for cancer is identified by this device, the observations regarding location, size, morphology and colour of the lesion are recorded and then confirmed cytologically and histologically. It is proved from the validation studies that this low cost portable device is with sufficient sensitivity and specificity in detecting high grade pre-cancerous and early cancerous lesions of uterine cervix and oral cavity. The technology provides a high sensitivity with a specificity of 94.3% for precancerous and early cancerous lesions of uterine cervix and reduces false positive results.

Device for non-destructive and rapid permeability measurementMany products require determination on how easily can fluids penetrate through the sample material. A precise and rapid measurement of the permeability is therefore crucial in many applications in the fields of freeze-dried products (pharmaceutical and food industry), textile industry, filter and membrane material manufacturers, additive manufacturing (3D printing), artificial bone implants, composite producers… Our innovation provides in-situ determination of the permeability, quick & real-time measurement (< 1 sec.), non-invasive, non-destructive method, and appropriate also for fragile materials. Applicable for: filters, membranes, freeze-dried products, textiles, composites, artificial bone scaffolds…

DEVICE FOR SPERM SELECTION BY THERMOTAXISThis device for the selection of sperm with the best migratory capacity is based on the property of mammalian sperm (including humans) to migrate in a temperature gradient (thermotaxis) in order to select the only spermatozoa that can get to fertilize the oocyte in vivo. It overcomes all the significant disadvantages that current equipments have, allowing the separation of multiple samples into single, disposable units. In addition it can be manufactured on production lines and its use and the processing of samples is very easy, not requiring qualified personnel.

Devices for analysis and characterization of materials using electrochemical-based multiple response techniquesMultiple response techniques are all those in which more than one response is obtained simultaneously on the same chemical system or process. Electrochemistry is usually used as a means of controlling the oxidation state of the analyzed material, obtaining in the same experience one or more spectroscopic information or another type of signal, such as that from a high-precision balance. Color modifications, electronic structure changes, vibrational structure changes, mass variations due to oxidation or deposit on an electrode can be studied with multiple response techniques. Our group has successfully used them in the study of different materials (carbon nanotubes, conductive polymers, metallic nanoparticles, semiconductor nanoparticles and hybrid materials), although they can provide high-quality qualitative and quantitative information on any other type of material.

Diagnosis and cleaning using laser technology for the restoration of historical monumentsSince ancient times granite has been used in historic buildings. Some restorers used to apply molten beeswax on their granite surfaces to stop imminent deterioration of the monuments. At first, this treatment was a good solution to consolidate the stone, but with time it resulted counterproductive. This method allows removal and cleaning of wax and other contaminants from porous stones in historical monuments and artworks using nondestructive means through laser technology.

Diagnosis and Prognosis of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases Using Host RNA SequencingInflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients suffer from chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The disease course varies, and patients often experience relapses and remission, despite the availability of several medications types. Currently, the disease stage is only assessed by histological analysis of colonoscopy obtained biopsies. Therefore, there is a critical need for non-invasive diagnostic and prognostic markers for IBD. Prof. Itzkovitz and his team show that the feces transcriptome of host shed cells is a diagnostic biomarker for GI histological inflammation and could possibly be used as a prognostic tool to predict patients' responses to different treatments.

Diagnosis and Treatment of Multiple SclerosisResearchers at The University of Manitoba have identified an endogenous pathway that appears to play a key role in the development of MS pathogenesis and may allow for the development of novel markers for early diagnosis, disease prevention and personalized therapeutic approaches. Utilizing MS patient samples and a preclinical mouse model, researchers have discovered that a decline in the plasma levels of the signalling protein Nrg-1b1 is positively associated with MS development and progression, and could be potentially used as an early disease marker to help in MS diagnosis.
