Researchers from Universidad de los Andes have invented a new edible coating that extends the shelf-life of fresh meat by locking in moisture and preventing oxidation and microbial growth. https://in-part.com/blog/top-10-innovations-2019-q1/
Researchers at Sandia National Laboratories have designed a organic compounds detector to diagnose diseases and infections from a patient?s breath at the point-of-care. This system is sensitive enough to detect trace levels of analytes (parts per billion to parts per trillion range), making it possible to detect specific VOCs released by a pathogen. https://app.in-part.com/login?returnTo=/articles/9Lx0Rq1Ygv26
Magda is a modern platform built to power a new generation of data portals. Magda helps government agencies quickly and easily find, share and publish their datasets, so that the public can benefit from more effective and open policy-making and governance. This idea is led by Data 61 at the CSIRO. http://www.oninnovation.com.au/en/ON-teams/ON-Tribe/Prime5/Sydney
DentalAR has created IntARface which is a radical technology for dentistry that allows a head-up display so they can check a patient's history while working. This new AR technology is useful as it delivers increased efficiency, accuracy, improved hygiene and cloud connectivity. DentalAR has been supported by the ON Accelerate program at CSIRO. http://www.oninnovation.com.au/en/ON-teams/ON-Tribe/Accelerate3/DentalAR
Scientists from the CSIRO and the University of California, San Diego have vaccinated mosquitoes to be resistant to spreading the Zika virus. They engineered a gene cluster and injected it into mosquito embryos. These injected mosquitoes were unable to pick up the Zika virus and hence were unable to spread it. https://blog.csiro.au/latest-buzz-about-zika-resistant-mozzies
