Procedure for the extraction of biosurfactants contained in corn steep liquorsNowadays, most of the pharmaceutical and cosmetic products in the market contain chemically synthesized surfactants in its composition. In many cases, these surfactants are the same as those used in regular cleanup activities. In order to get more natural and biocompatible products, it would be interesting to include natural surfactants instead of chemical surfactants in the preparation of these pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. These biosurfactants are also present in the formulation of greener nanoparticles, replacing the chemical surfactants currently used in the preparation thereof. Most biosurfactants have antimicrobial activity, which would improve the properties of certain nanoparticles, as well as many pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. The main disadvantage of biosurfactants industrial production is related to the high cost compared to chemically synthesized surfactant production. The solution proposed by the Chemical Engineering research group at the University of Vigo, is the development of eco-friendly simple extraction of biosurfactant from a corn wet-milling industry byproduct, such as corn wash liquors, better known as "corn steep liquor (CSL)", which could compete in terms of cost production with its chemical counterparts.CINBIO posted this:
Procedure for the genetic identification of the european centolla del atlantico (maja brachydactyla)Procedure for the genetic identification of atlantic european spider crab (maja brachydactyla). A protocol has been developed for the genetic identification of european atlantic spider crab (maja brachydactyla) against the other species found in the mediterranean (m. Squinado, m. Crispata and m. Goltziana). These species constitute a commercial resource of great value; its identification is fundamental to enable its traceability and proper labeling and to guide its management and conservation. The protocol consists of amplifying a 671 bp DNA region of the 16s gene of mitochondrial DNA, whose nucleotide sequence is characteristic of each of the 4 species. In particular, to differentiate m. Brachydactyla, specific primers have been designed to amplify an internal fragment of 223 bp DNA region.CINBIO posted this:

Procedure for the preparation of polysubstituted pyrrolidines as inhibitors of the hepatitis C virusThe research group has developed a highly enantioselective process catalysed by small amounts of a chiral complex formed by a silver(I) salt and a chiral phosphoramidite. This method allows the preparation of enantioenriched polysubstituted proline derivatives after a three-step sequence. These prolines are widely used for multiple purposes, but the most important activity is based on the high efficiency against the hepatitis C virus. The administration of these drugs in mammalians is beneficial because the risks of the multiple side effects are reduced and the required dose is very small, unlike the mixture of the pharmaceuticals employed in the current therapy. This research group asks for companies ready to acquire this methodology for a future exploitation. Innovation features: At this moment, this methodology is the unique dealing with the production of these antiviral agents in an highly enantioselective manner. This enantioselective synthesis is very reliable, reproducible and allows to react very bulky starting materials giving high chemical yields. This method is a clear example of the atom economy.Universidad de Alcalá-OTRI posted this:

Procedure of determination of soybean proteins in pork meat products treated with heat, by liquid chromatography of high effectiveness of perfusion in reversed-phase.This technology can be applied in meat foodstuff treated with heat while most of this kind of analysis is made on raw products or synthetic mixtures. So far, the only method for meat foodstuff treated with heat (ELISA method) is slow, very expensive and its results are semi-quantitative. This new method is faster, cheaper and the results are reliable and quantitative. It means a huge improvement for the daily analysis and quality control of these products.Universidad de Alcalá-OTRI posted this:

Process for cooling Photovoltaic ModulesPhotovoltaic modules generating electric energy from global radiation often heat up under high global radiation values and loos electric power under these conditions, offen called voltage drop, We have developed different cooling methods which reduce temperature of photovoltaic modules and at the same time generate additional electric energy during cooling. For this cooling process we use thermogenerators. Based on weather situation cooling of photovoltaic modules could result in higher electric energy.Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla posted this:

Process for the purification of xylooligosaccharidesProcess for the purification of xylooligosaccharides based on the use of diafiltration. The present invention, entitled "process for the purification of xylooligosaccharides based on the use of diafiltration", claims a process applicable to the purification of xylooligosaccharides obtained by hydrolytic degradation (chemically and/or enzymatically) of the hemicellulosic fraction of plant biomass in aqueous medium. The hydrolysis liquors contain xylooligosaccharides together with other unwanted components, which must be eliminated to allow the use of xylooligosaccharides for food purposes. This objective is achieved through diafiltration (possibly, in combination with other physical-chemical operations that are described in the text of the application). The use of fractions containing purified xylooligosaccharides as food ingredients with prebiotic properties, applicable in human nutrition and animal feed, is claimed.Dr. Thomas Kallimopoulos posted this:

Process to prepare amine-functionalized cellulose nanocrystals for applications such as an antimicrobial agent or catalystThis technology relates to a process for preparing coated cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). These new CNC hybrid nanomaterials are useful for conjugation and electrostatic complexation with various functional moieties such as free metal ions, carboxylic acids, and epoxy and aldehyde derivatives. This technology also relates to a method to fabricate N-doped carbon nanomaterial from the coated CNCs. The production of stable nanotemplates using green solvents are challenging, and this technology offers an environmentally process to produce these useful nanomaterials. Waterloo researchers developed a green approach to produce coated cellulose nanomaterials in aqueous medium, and this process is readily scalable. As an example, CNC’s were coated with polydopamine (PD) and thereafter metallic silver (Ag) was reduced on the surface of the CNC-PD scaffold to produce a hybrid Ag-CNC-PD nanoparticle for use as an antibacterial coating material. The dispersion stability of this hybrid nanoparticle was significantly enhanced by the CNC, which in turn resulted in more than fourfold increase in antibacterial activity based on antibacterial studies using Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis.

Processor SoftwareAn arithmetic formula is discovered that can be used to reduce logic to arithmetic. The formula enables a logic algorithm to be reduced to an arithmetic algorithm without the use of logical trees, thereby converting a logical operation to an arithmetic operation. Therefore, it is possible to develop software that functions similar to a real processor.Unismart - University of Padua Foundation posted this:
