Isolation And Dissociation Of Immune Complexes From Pleural Effusions Of Lymphoma Patients, Geeta V. Patel, Mangesh N. Satam, Gopal Nadkarni Apr 2015

Isolation And Dissociation Of Immune Complexes From Pleural Effusions Of Lymphoma Patients, Geeta V. Patel, Mangesh N. Satam, Gopal Nadkarni

Dr. Gopal Nadkarni

Immune complexes (IC) isolated from pleural effusions of lymphomas with favorable and unfavorable prognoses were of IgG type. These IC were further dissociated by ion exchange chromatography using 8 M urea. The antibody was found to be a high molecular weight protein (1.5 x l0 s daltons) and reacted with antihuman IgG immunologically while a second peak obtained on ion exchange chromatography may be an antigen moiety with a molecular weight of 3.2 × 10 4 daltons as it reacted immunologically with the antibody. Strong cytoplasmic fluorescence was observed with various cell suspensions of lymphomas when reacted with the antibody …

Accelerating Technology Commercializationuniversity Of Akron (Ohio) Using The Nsf I-Corps Model, Gopal Nadkarni, Elyse Ball, Daniel Hampu

Dr. Gopal Nadkarni

The paper explores the new technology commercialization model being followed at The University of Akron (UA).UA has implemented the National Science Foundation (NSF)Innovation ICorpsTMmodel since 2013. This paper describes how the NSF I-Corps model has changed the innovation culture at UA and allowed the academic faculty to explore the business potential of their intellectual property.Differences in implementation across several I-Corps Sites are explored. The lessons from UA's experience show that the I-Corps Sites program has been a resounding success and helped faculty and students to become more entrepreneurial in exploring the commercial value and demand drivers of technologies invented at …
