  • Publication number: 20240084235
    Abstract: An organomimetic device includes a microfluidic device that can be used to culture cells in its microfluidic channels. The organomimetic device can be part of dynamic system that can apply mechanical forces to the cells by modulating the microfluidic device and the flow of fluid through the microfluidic channels. The membrane in the organomimetic device can be modulated mechanically via pneumatic means and/or mechanical means. The organomimetic device can be manufactured by the fabrication of individual components separately, for example, as individual layers that can be subsequently laminated together.

  • Publication number: 20230312555
    Abstract: A synthetic route to scopolamine and/or atropine. In such context, the present invention identifies a method for preparing 6,7-dehydro atropine, which can be converted into either scopolamine and/or atropine, along with a method for converting a protected pyrrole into a tetrachlorobicylic compound, such as benzyl 3-oxo-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-ene-8-carboxylate.
