Peptide Synthesizer

tact3
Multiwell solid phase peptide synthesis system for the production of peptide libraries. The synthesizer features an integral automated dispensing system for washing, deprotection, N-terminal acetylation and cleavage.  It accommodates parallel combinations of reagents and solvents using a unique reaction block nitrogen pressurization system, eliminating the need for mechanical valves. As many as 100 peptides can…

Infant Seat

tact3
An ergonomic and fully adjustable infant restrainer seat, training bench and stroller for severely disabled children.  The system consists of a lightweight chair with integral cushions conforming to the child’s body, a modular base capable of positioning the chair at any angle for feeding, playing and sleeping, and a mobile module for installation into a…

Aerosol Delivery System

tact3
Controlled turbulent-flow chamber with multiple ports for the introduction of therapeutic nanocrystalline elemental silver aerosols into the lungs as a novel, rapid treatment for tuberculosis, in which biofilms of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infect the alveolar surfaces of the lung. Such organized biofilms harbor drug-tolerant cells and are notoriously hard to cure, requiring months or even years of treatment…
