Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) Device to Resolve Individual Membrane Electrical Properties of Epithelial and Endothelial Tissues
Understanding the electrical properties of barrier tissues is crucial for deciphering their physiological functions and pathological conditions. These tissues, such as epithelial and endothelial layers, play critical roles in regulating the transport of ions, nutrients, and signaling molecules. By quantifying membrane-specific resistances, capacitances, and potentials, researchers gain valuable insights into epithelial development, barrier integrity, and disease progression.

High-Speed Counter Current Chromatography
The pool of potential medicinal candidates found in natural products is vast. One section of one plant can contain thousands of potential candidate compounds. Natural products research has become increasingly interesting to pharmaceutical companies engaged in new drug discovery. As a result, a device is needed that will extract candidate compounds more efficiently and cost-effectively.
