Pharma
Methods for Making Multilayered Vesicles
Delivering active ingredients like vitamins, peptides, and botanical extracts is challenging. Many of these compounds are either unstable, degrade before absorption, or have poor solubility, making them less effective when applied topically or…
Diagnostics
Active Learning AI Mass Spec Analysis Platform
Mass spectrometry is a powerful tool for diagnosing diseases and discovering biomarkers, but analyzing the data is complicated and often requires expert interpretation. This slows down the process and increases the chance of missing important signs…
Microbiology/Immunology
Precision Bacterial Gene Control System
Producing proteins in the lab is a key part of developing new drugs, enzymes, and industrial materials. But many systems used to grow these proteins are inefficient and don’t allow much control over how much of the protein is made. This team has…
Diagnostics
Advanced Lipid-Based SARS-CoV-2 Detection
Most COVID-19 tests detect the virus only after it has had time to grow in the body, which can delay isolation and treatment. Current tools may also miss early signs of infection. This team has developed a blood test that can spot the virus right…
Diagnostics
PEP-TORCH for Identifying Mycobacterial Species
When someone has a mycobacterial infection, such as tuberculosis, it can be difficult and time-consuming for doctors to identify exactly which type of bacteria is causing the illness. Many existing tests are either too general or take a long time to…
Energy
Scalable Nanowire Production Technology
Nanowires are used in electronics, energy devices, and sensors, but most current methods to make them are slow, complex, and expensive, limiting their use in large-scale applications. Tulane researchers have developed a faster and cheaper way to…
Diagnostics
Cell Membrane Analysis Tool
Understanding how flexible or rigid a cell’s membrane is can give scientists important clues about disease, drug response, and how cells function. Tulane researchers have developed a more affordable and precise way to study cell membranes in order…
Materials Science
High-Performance Energy Storage Solution
Tulane researchers have developed MXene-based supercapacitor electrodes with enhanced capacitance by intercalating alkylammonium cations to increase layer spacing and enable ionic liquid intercalation. This innovation offers improved energy storage…

Advanced Cooling System for High-Performance Solar Panels
Most solar panels today waste a large portion of the sun's energy, especially heat, because they aren't designed to capture different types of sunlight efficiently. This technology will boost solar energy systems by capturing both electricity and…
Energy
Liquid-Cooled Hybrid Solar Technology
Conventional solar panels typically capture only sunlight's energy in the form of electricity, while the heat produced is wasted. This limits the overall efficiency of solar energy systems. In addition, storing solar energy remains a technical and…

Dual Solar Energy Collector
Many solar energy systems are not using sunlight to its full potential. Most panels convert sunlight into electricity but waste the heat that could also be used. This leads to lower efficiency and higher costs, especially in areas where energy needs…
