Method of extracting nucleic acid

Researchers at the University of Dundee have developed a novel method for the recovery of DNA from cotton swabs.

Vaccines for Group A Streptococcus: Recombinant production platform for universal ‘dual-hit’ Group A Streptococcus glycoconjugate-vaccines

Researchers at the University of Dundee have developed a novel method for the recombinant production of universal Group A Streptococcus (GAS) glycoconjugate vaccine candidates.

iLFT: automated algorithms for use in routine clinical diagnostics for real-time management of disease

Researchers at the University of Dundee and NHS Tayside have developed the ‘iLFT system’, a system for linking patient sample analytes with clinical data which can then cascade appropriate additional tests and populate algorithms t8263_IPo deliver earlier identification of treatable liver disease.

Machine learning model for antibiotic discovery

Researchers at the University of Dundee have developed a computational protocol that predicts the likelihood for any given compound to act as a broad-spectrum antibiotic against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

Pulsed Photo Stimulated Luminescence System

Food irradiation is the use of high energy ionising radiation to extend shelf life by reducing the bacterial loads associated with natural foods. The University of Glasgow has developed methods and equipment for screening foodstuffs for irradiation.

Wireless EEG Neuro-Feedback System for Rehabilitation and Pain Management

Researchers at the University of Glasgow have developed a Wireless Electroencephalogram Neuro-feedback System for rehabilitation and the treatment of chronic pain.

Distributed Feedback Membrane Lasers for Counterfeit Protection and Authentication

Extremely flexible, ultrathin and ultralow weight membrane lasers could be widely applied as security features on valued documents, banknotes and pharmaceuticals, and also a wide range of other high value branded products (spirits, perfumes).

Flexible Tubing Anchor Device

In consultation with Scotland National Health Services (NHS) and professional care staff leads, a team at Edinburgh Napier University (Scotland, UK) has designed, prototyped and has patents pending for a mass producible flexible tubing safety device suited to Ventilators and respirators.
