Gel patch may one day deliver MS drugs through the nose into the brain A simplified diagram of the Nose2Brain patch, loaded with biomaterial-based drug particles N2B-patch Project N2B-patch Project Getting traditionally administered drugs into the brain can be challenging, due to the body's protective blood-brain barrier. There may be new hope, however, in the form of a patch that gets shoved up the patient's nose.

Bioactive paper coatings to replace plastic for packaging foods The amount of plastic waste increases every year. Some of this waste is due to plastic packaging used to protect food. As part of the “BioActiveMaterials” project, researchers at the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft have developed an eco-friendly coating for paper packaging. With this, not only is plastic saved, but the coating of plant-based proteins and waxes also extends the shelf life of the food. After use, the packaging can go into the paper recycling bin for disposal. Nowadays, those who shop for food in discount stores will al...
