NC Biotechnology Center awards $1.8M in grants, loans – here's the breakdown

by Barry Teater, NCBiotech Writer May 13, 2021 .
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK The North Carolina Biotechnology Center awarded 48 grants and loans totaling nearly $1.8 million to universities, bioscience companies and other entities in the third quarter of its fiscal year.
The awards, made in January, February and March, support life sciences research, technology commercialization and entrepreneurship throughout North Carolina. The funding also helps universities and companies attract follow-on funding from other sources.
Company loans
Three bioscience companies received Small Business Research Loans totaling $550,000 to advance their research, product development and commercial viability.
Alacrity Medical Innovations of Chapel Hill received $100,000 to complete prototype development and prepare for an Investigational New Drug (IND) filing with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for a disposable, drug-device combination product that treats mild to moderate ble ....

Nanodroplets and Ultrasound 'Drills' Prove Effective at Tackling Tough Blood Clots

Engineering researchers have developed a new technique for eliminating particularly tough blood clots, using engineered nanodroplets and an ultrasound “drill” to break up the clots from the inside out. The technique has not yet gone through clinical testing. In vitro testing has shown promising results.
Specifically, the new approach is designed to treat retracted blood clots, which form over extended periods of time and are especially dense. These clots are particularly difficult to treat because they are less porous than other clots, making it hard for drugs that dissolve blood clots to penetrate into the clot.
The new technique has two key components: the nanodroplets and the ultrasound drill. ....
