Micro Bubble-jet Cell Sorter KU Leuven
FACS enables the analysis and sorting of cells from a heterogeneous cell population at single cell level, hence representing an indispensable tool for biological research and clinical diagnostics and therapeutics. A traditional FACS consists of a flow cell in which biological cells pass an optical detection point one by one. There they are discriminated based on optical scatter signals and fluorescent labels. The cells are then encapsulated ...
Innovation in pharmaceutical melt granulation Ghent University
The pharmaceutical industry intends to switch from batch to continuous production. Continuous manufacturing offers many benefits when the process is constantly within control, ensuring appropriate end-product quality. This can be achieved when the process and formulation are well-understood since then, deviations can be rapidly detected and real-time adjustment of process parameters becomes feasible. Twin-screw hot melt granulation (TS HMG) ...
Electric stimulation in the brain cavity wall to reduce its associated symptoms. A generic approach applied in central post-stroke pain. KU Leuven
Millions of people worldwide suffer from neurological symptoms that are associated with an abnormal brain cavity (aBC). This aBC is the anatomical result of neuronal loss, mostly after stroke, brain trauma, surgery or infection. The symptomatology is dependent on the location and extent of the aBC.
We hypothesised that electrical stimulation of the aBC wall can alleviate aBC-associated symptoms. This is reasonable, as there is ...
Dispersions Comprising Aerogel and Water for Manufacturing New Products for the Building Industry KU Leuven
Carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4), the two most abundant greenhouse gases, continue to rise every year in our atmosphere driving global climate changes despite the international efforts to minimize emissions of mainly CO2. Immediate action is required in developing solutions that significantly improve energy efficiency in buildings by installing thermal superinsulation, which minimizes the energy requirement for heating or cooling and ...

MHD simulations of flux rope formation and eruption KU Leuven
In this thesis, we study magnetic flux rope (MFR) formation and eruption driven by photospheric converging motion. Two-and-a-half-dimensional magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulation and forward modelling analysis are conducted.
Chapter 1 introduces general research background. In Section 1.1, the structure and evolution of the Sun, the solar radiation feature, and the properties of solar magnetic fields are summarised. Section 1.2 reviews ...
