Characterization of low-temperature plasmas generated by dielectric barrier discharges for bacterial inactivation
Low-temperature plasmas (LTPs) at atmospheric pressure hold great promise for disinfection and sterilization applications. When compared to traditional sterilization technologies like autoclaving, LTPs may offer several benefits, including reduced energy c ...
EPFL2024Biological material pooling device for biological or biomolecule purification
Bart Deplancke, Riccardo Dainese, Daniel Alpern
The present invention concerns a biological material pooling device for biological or biomolecule purification comprising a receptacle including a first orifice comprising ordefining a rectangular opening, the receptacle being configured to receive at leas ...
2023Morphology of Nanostructured Tantalum Oxide Controls Stem Cell Differentiation and Improves Corrosion Behavior
Tantalum is receiving increasing attention in the biomedical field due to its biocompatible nature and superior mechanical properties. However, the bioinert nature of tantalum still poses a challenge and limits its integration into the bone tissue. To addr ...
Washington2023Industrial Biotechnology Conservation Processes: Similarities with Natural Long-Term Preservation of Biological Organisms
Corinne Scaletta, Philippe Abdel Sayed, Nathalie Hirt-Burri, Alexis Laurent
Cryopreservation and lyophilization processes are widely used for conservation purposes in the pharmaceutical, biotechnological, and food industries or in medical transplantation. Such processes deal with extremely low temperatures (e.g., -196 degrees C) a ...
MDPI2023Controlling morpho-electrophysiological variability of neurons with detailed biophysical models
Henry Markram, Werner Alfons Hilda Van Geit, Lida Kanari, Alexis Arnaudon, Maria Reva, Mickael Maurice Zbili
Variability is a universal feature among biological units such as neuronal cells as they enable a robust encoding of a high volume of information in neuronal circuits and prevent hyper synchronizations such as epileptic seizures. While most computational s ...
2023Passive and Deterministic Droplet Microfluidics for Single Object Encapsulation and Pairing
The single-cell study, which dissects cell-cell heterogeneity from bulk populations, is of growing attention and importance in biological studies and clinical practices. At the core of the single-cell analysis is the efficient cell isolation and constructi ...
EPFL2023A study model for reconstructing urban ecological niches
Francesco Mondada, Robert Matthew Mills
The Living Arch is a study model that was designed to showcase our ongoing research into bioactive architectural systems to be inhabited by honeybees. The arch is a synergistic combination of 3D printing and active mycelia growth, created for a museum exhi ...
CRC Press2022Surprise-based model estimation in reinforcement learning: algorithms and brain signatures
Learning how to act and adapting to unexpected changes are remarkable capabilities of humans and other animals. In the absence of a direct recipe to follow in life, behaviour is often guided by rewarding and by surprising events. A positive or a negative o ...
