Development of Inkjet Nozzle Driven by Double Piezo Actuators
An inkjet nozzle with double piezo transducers has been designed, which is different from conventional inkjet nozzles. The body of the nozzle which is fabricated by precision machining techniques is made from transparent acrylic material to visualize the flow inside the nozzle. The piezoelectric actuators are activated by a voltage amplifier which generates high-voltage bipolar waveforms. The k...
متن کاملConcepts of risk in nanomedicine research.
Risk takes center stage in ethical debates over nanomedical technologies. Yet concepts of risk may hold different meanings, and they are embedded within particular political, economic, and social contexts. This article discusses framings of risk in debates over medical innovations such as nanomedicine, and draws attention to organizational and institutional forms of risk which are less visible ...
متن کاملNanomedicine for tuberculosis: Insights from animal models
Patient noncompliance to current tuberculosis (TB) therapy owing to multidrug administration daily leads to treatment failure and emergence of multidrug resistant and extensively drug resistant TB. To avoid the daily dosing, application of nanotechnology is the only viable solution by virtue of sustained release of drugs. Other potential advantages of the system include the possibility of selec...
متن کاملNanomedicine first-in-human research: challenges for informed consent.
Risks of harm, translational uncertainty, ambiguities in potential direct benefit, and long-term follow-up merit consideration in first-in-human research. Some nanomedical technologies have additional characteristics that should be addressed, including: defining and describing nanomedical interventions; bystander risks; the therapeutic misconception; and a decision-making context that includes ...
متن کاملMultilayer nanoencapsulation: a nanomedicine technology for diabetes research and management.
Nanothickness encapsulation using a layer-by-layer technique has applications in several areas of diabetes research, including improved glucose sensors, islet cell transplantation and oral insulin delivery. We have fabricated microvesicles containing a fluorescence lifetime-based glucose sensing system, with bacterial glucose-binding protein as the glucose receptor. Such sensors are suitable fo...
