PERSONALISED MEDICINES ARE A STEP CLOSER WITH XAAR 1201 PRINTHEAD

The Xaar 1201 printhead is proving instrumental in helping Nottingham-based research organisation, Added Scientific, establish the suitability of inkjet printing in the manufacture of personalised pharmaceutical pills, where dosages could be tailored to individuals on an industrial scale.


Dogs & Bones: Topsey’s turvy spine and Lucca’s limbs helped with bespoke titanium devices

 	Repositioning: the desired result was for the angular limb to be repositioned to mimic the opposite side limb. The lower limb was to be repositioned into its preferred location and screw trajectories were planned to hold the correction implant in place. Certain breeds of small dog are genetically prone to developing potentially life changing conditions. In dachshunds and Shih Tzu’s, abnormal bone growth can sometimes cause their front paws to point outwards. And in pugs, and other breeds with corkscrew tails, are susceptible to spinal problems caused by mis-shapen bones. Fortunately, if diagnosed in time, these conditions can be treated with surgery.

HP Delivers Innovations to Public Health with New CDC Pilot Program

CDC purchases HP D300e Digital Dispenser BioPrinters for Antibiotic Resistance Lab Network to accelerate testing of new antibiotics

• CDC launches HP pilot program with the purchase of HP BioPrinters for four regional labs in New York, Minnesota, Tennessee, and Wisconsin.

• HP BioPrinters, with inkjet printing technology, adapted for automated laboratory dispensing to help fight antimicrobial resistance.

• Makes testing of new antibiotics possible at the local level for the first time

3D-Printed Blood Vessels: The Tech Just Became Scalable with Mathematica and the Wolfram Language

"If there's a known algorithm, we want an optimal implementation; if there isn't, we want to invent one." - Greg Hurst of Wolfram Research took one of the company's mission statements very seriously. Thousands of existing algorithms couldn't solve a problem, so he created one.

KYOCERA Honored by Japan's METI for Aquala® Artificial Hip Joint Technology

Kyocera Corporation (NYSE:KYO)(TOKYO:6971) today announced that its innovative Aquala technology received Japan’s “Prize of the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry” during the 2018 National Invention Awards held in Tokyo June 12 by the Japan Institute of Invention and Innovation (JIII).

SABIC again expands fast-growing additive manufacturing materials portfolio with launch of three new filaments at NPE 2018

SABIC, a global leader in the chemical industry, announced here at NPE 2018, booth S19001, the third expansion of its additive manufacturing materials offering within 12 months. Specifically, SABIC is launching three new filaments for fused deposition modeling: ULTEM™ AM1010F filament for general high-temperature applications, including tooling; and ULTEM™ AMHU1010F and LEXAN™ AMHC620F filaments for healthcare applications. These advanced new materials, which can be used for end-use parts as well as prototypes, are key to SABIC’s strategy of extending the scope of additive manufacturing. The company is also applying its broad expertise in materials, processing and design optimization – as well as deep knowledge and experience in healthcare – to enhance additive manufacturing technologies.

Bioprinting of organs

Printed replacement human body parts might seem like science fiction, but this technology is rapidly becoming a reality with the potential to greatly contribute to regenerative medicine. Before any real applications, "bioprinting" still faces many technical challenges. Processing the bio-ink and making it stick to itself and hold the desired printed gel structure have been proving particularly difficult especially in inkjet printing. Few methods currently exist for gluing bio-ink droplets together and these do not work for every kind of cell, motivating new alternative approaches.
