One Touch Ping: use gold strips , http://www.onetouch.ca/
The OneTouch® Ultra is a small, easy to use and very fast meter, producing results in five seconds. The OneTouch Ultra uses FastDraw™ Design test strips, a new capillary action, end-fill test strip that takes only 1 microliter of blood, is touchable, and is approved for alternative sites (e.g., the arm instead of the finger tip). Combining small blood volume, small size (3.12" x 2.25" x .85", 1.5 ounces with battery) and the short, 5-second test time, the OneTouch Ultra is recommended, though the newer OneTouch Ultra2 and UltraMini are better choices (especially the new UltraMini, now that it has a data port).

Life Technologies; Dynabeads® are used for magnetic separation and handling of biomoleculesin a wide range of assays and applications. The  Dynabeads® act as a solid-phase with true liquid-phase kinetics, and is easily adapted to automated liquid-handling platforms.
Dynabeads® are uniform, monosized superparamagnetic beads, composed of highly cross-linked polystyrene with evenly distributed magnetic material. The beads are further coated, enclosing the iron oxide inside the beads. To allow full flexibility, a range of surface-activated Dynabeads® are available (e.g. 1 μm / 2.8 μm / 4.5 μm bead diameter, hydrophobic / hydrophilic surface characteristics, and with epoxy- / amine- / tosyl- / hydroxyl- / carboxylic acid surface groups available for coupling).

Oxford Photovoltaics

Our technology uses abundant and non-toxic organic solar cell materials that are screen printed directly onto glass, so the manufacturing process is simple, cheap and extremely scalable both in size of substrate and production volume. Using glass, the solar cell can be transparent, self-coloured and ideal for integration into the facade or cladding of buildings in applications known as Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV).

NEW OXFORD DEVELOPED COATING FOR SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS WINS VENTURE PRIZE AWARD

28 June 2012, Researchers at the University of Oxford have won a major materials science prize to develop a high-technology coating with the potential to significantly reduce the manufacturing costs of new-generation solar photovoltaic cells.

Medicinal products containing nanoparticles in the form of liposomes (i.e. Caelyx, Myocet), polymer protein conjugates (i.e. PegIntron, Somavert), polymeric substances (i.e. Copaxone) or suspensions  (i.e. Rapamune, Emend) have already been granted Marketing Authorisations within the Community under the existing regulatory framework. 

 The table below provides a breakdown of the type of nanostructures utilized in the confirmed and likely nanomedicine products. The various forms of free nanoparticles were the most prevalent categories, with significant numbers in both commercial products and investigational applications.

Liquid Solar Cells - Crystalline nanoparticles of cadmium selenide could be suspended in liquid and painted or printed on to a suitable surface to make stable solar cells of almost any shape or size………………Researchers at South Carolina Univ found a way to make the liquid colloidal suspension electrically conductive by adding connecting ligands (the 1,2,3,4-thiatriazole-5-thiolate anion) using a relatively low-temperature process to stabilize the nanocrystals. The TTT- anion is relatively easy to synthesize the team says and acts as a “masked” thiocyanate, but without the issues that thiocyanate has with forming a stable ink.

"The UK as a whole has four of the world's top six universities, and they typically spin out around 200 companies a year. Whilst London is best defined as a global talent hub, it can also be described as the world's largest science park, with financial and legal advice close at hand."

(Baroness Valentine, in the occasion of the Nanotechnology Knowledge Transfer Network (NanoKTN) and UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) in the London Hilton Park Lane, Nov 2009)

The gloomy time will pass, and good times will come back. This much is certain, when we finally enter the post crisis period, the business and economic context will not have returned to pre crisis context. The New Normal business scene will have changed. The result will be an environment that while different from the past, is no less rich in possibilities for those who are intelligently prepared. (Ian Davis)
