  • OPTICAL SENSITIZER DEVICE AND METHOD FOR LOW-ENERGY LASER IGNITION OF PROPELLANTS
    Publication number: 20240102439
    Abstract: An igniter system and method for igniting a propellant by an optical energy source. The igniter system including an igniter composite and a propellant. The igniter composite including a reactive component and a fluoropolymer. The propellant is coupled to the igniter composite. The igniter composite has a composition including nano-aluminum at ideal stoichiometry in polyvinylidene fluoride. The igniter composite is configured to achieve a sustained ignition from a wavelength emitted from the optical energy source. The wavelength is between around 250 nanometers to around 1100 nanometers.

  • Compositions and methods for enhancing CRISPR activity by POLQ inhibition
    Patent number: 10760081
    Abstract: Provided are approaches to improving CRISPR-based DNA editing by performing the editing in cells in which pol ? (“POLQ”) enzyme and/or its function is reduced. Approaches are provided that are applicable to Cas9 nuclease and Cas9 nickase CRISPR editing. Also provided are kits that can contain a polynucleotide encoding a Cas9 and an agent for use in inhibiting POLQ, and/or or an expression vector configured for expressing a mutation template for use in CRISPR chromosome editing and an agent for use in inhibiting POLQ.
