Utilising Brains of India for Medical device
innovation, Development
Indian brain is best in the world.
Unfortunately brain power is not directed to right
direction. To utilise this power one needs to
disseminate information about the inventions made and
capabilities. Communication between three pillars
Inventor, user & manufacturer required. Inventors
should approach the world with businessman attitude. |

Lubrizol LifeSciencesCompatibility of
Thermoplastic Polyurethanes with Drugs for IV Sets
Compatibility between medications
and intravascular (IV) administration sets is
important for assuring predictable delivery of the
drug dose, safety and efficacy. Potential interactions
include sorption, permeation of the drug into the
administration set, leaching of the set material
components into the drug solution. The use of
thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU) for IV sets has seen
a recent increase. A comprehensive evaluation of the
in vitro compatibility of IV sets of thermoplastic
polyurethanes with an array of drugs with different
properties, indicated that TPU sets did not affect the
pH, impurity and particulates of the drug products
tested, being similar or better to compared to TPE and
PVC IV sets. |

Associate Dean
Facilitation Centre for Industrial Plasma
Technologies, GandhinagarPLASMAJET - A NOVEL
DEVICE FOR BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS
Plasma the fourth state of matter
after solid, liquid and gas, comprises of ions,
electrons, unionized gas atoms/molecules. Depending on
the nature of plasma generation either the plasma will
have low heat content but high in chemical reactivity
(commonly known as cold plasma and used for surface
modification) or will have high heat content (commonly
known as hot plasma and used for bulk material
modification, waste disposal). At FCIPT division of
IPR, work on both cold and hot plasmas is being
undertaken for various applications for societal
benefit. Plasmajet is a device, which produces a cold
plasma at atmospheric pressure and is extremely useful
for biomedical applications.
An atmospheric pressure plasmajet
is developed with argon and oxygen as plasma forming
gases, and then it is directed to the patient’s skin
having fungal infection (Tinea Cruris). The initial
results indicate that patients are getting cured in 3
to 4 sittings where each sitting ~ 15 minutes. Further
studies on the mechanism of fungal infection with
plasma and micro-biological tests are going on. This
work is done in collaboration with IIEST, Howrah and
IPGMER, Kolkata. Now plasmajet is planned to be put on
some cancer cells to test its performance in
collaboration in BSG-BARC. The talk will highlight
development of the plasmajet at FCIPT and also mention
some other technologies which may benefit the
biomedical community. |

Dr. Milind Antani
Nishith Desai Associates, MumbaiWorkshop On
“Technology Driven Transactions “with Focus On Medical
Devices Pharmaceuticals & Healthcare Sector
Investments.
When one negotiates a license of
technology, they need to know what royalty rate and
other financial terms they should seek (as a licensor)
or pay (as a licensee) and the Allied Clauses in the
Legal Agreement whether a Technical Collaboration or a
Joint Venture.
This intense skills development
workshop will show how to make that determination. It
will show the methodologies one should employ, and
those that one should not. It will show the sources of
information that one need to make that determination
and it will teach the skills that one need to hone to
be able to reliably make that determination. |
