This method uses polymer modifications to tune enzyme activity for increased solubility in non-native solvents.

CU ����Vlog�ƽ�� researchers have demonstrated the use of polymer modification to modulate the interactions of enzymes with non-native solvents specifically. This allows rational��tuning of��the interactions of the enzyme-polymer conjugate with the solvent in a thermoresponsive manner within a desired temperature range. By rationally altering the composition of the polymer, the solubility and temperature of the phase separation can be quantitatively controlled and tuned. This approach ultimately permits exploiting the advantages of homogeneous (high activity, low diffusional limitations) and heterogeneous (recyclability) biocatalysis in non-native solvents.��

This device is easy to produce, cheaper��and efficient, with a modular nature that makes swapping liquid crystal cells and PCB boards easy.

CU researchers��have developed a phased array system with liquid crystal as a phase shift medium. This technology allows for antenna design for higher frequencies over conventional phase shift technology. This opens the way to create small, compact systems that can be utilized in new areas, including self-driving vehicles, hand-held secure communication devices��and robot guidance systems. They also developed a new “flip-chip” method for assembling the antenna. This allows for the separation of glass liquid crystal cells from the PCB used for the associated antenna electronics. This gives the entire assembly a modular nature making it easy to swap liquid crystal cells and/or the PCB boards.
