AutoSyringe Injection: Mass transfer driven by plunger to force medication through a needle
(2006-05-24)The AutoSyringe is an automatic device that allows patients with limited dexterity to administer medication to themselves as painlessly as possible. The device allows patients to inject themselves subcutaneously, where ... -
Bald is Beautiful, but is it Warm?
(2004-11-12)The head is a major source of heat loss (60-80%), and therefore, if conditions are cold enough, not keeping the head properly insulated could lead to hypothermia. Because of this, we were interested in determining to what ... -

Breaking the Skin Barrier: Modelling Microneedles for Transdermal Insulin Delivery
(2016-05-16)Transdermal patches, devices developed to deliver drugs, can be limited in their efficacy because the amount of drug that diffuses through the skin often doesn’t reach sufficient concentrations. This problem is alleviated ... -
Chemotherapuetic Treatment Using Controlled Drug Delivery of BCNU via Nanoparticles
(2013-05-30)The most common type of brain tumor is the glioma and despite advances in diagnostic imaging and drug delivery, there are no effective cures. This is due to the malignant glioma’s tendency to recur after treatment, with ... -

Cold Therapy Analysis in Structurally Damaged Tissue
(2000-01-10)For our project, we conducted an analysis of cold therapy for structurally damaged tissue. Our intent was to determine the ideal conditions of temperature and time of cold therapy needed to most effectively treat a bruise. ... -
Cold Therapy of Sporting Injury in Upper Thigh Region: A Comprehensive Study on the Time Required to Achieve Optimal Cooling and the Effects of Swelling
(2006-05-24)One of the most common injuries amongst athletes is soft tissue injury due to impact, and the traditional treatment for this is cold therapy using an ice pack. While this treatment is effective, inexpensive, and easily ... -
Comparison of Oxygen Flux in Hydrogel and Silicone Hydrogel Contact Lenses
(2008-07-23)The prevalence of contact lens use has been continuously growing for their convenience and for cosmetic reasons. Although contact lenses do offer many advantages over glasses, the major concern for many contact lens users ... -
Comparison of Vaccine Freezing Methods
(2001-04-05)We have developed a temperature-sensitive vaccine formulation in a glass vial that needs to be frozen prior to lyophilization.The method for freezing the vial has traditionally been liquid nitrogen tunnel freezing, but ... -
A Computational Model of Oral Transmucosal Carvedilol Delivery
(2014-05-26)In the past few decades, there has been a rapid growth in alternative drug delivery routes. The oral cavity has gained attention as an attractive drug delivery site because it enhances drug bioavailability, allows for rapid ...
