We are seeking research ideas for nasal mucosa studies using animal models. Currently, we are employing a method where a tube is inserted through either the right or left nasal cavity of rodent animal models to deliver a solution, while creating negative pressure in the opposite nasal cavity to collect the liquid. However, it seems that rodents, which cannot breathe through their mouths, are prone to having the liquid that enters through their noses easily reach their lungs. This leads to weakness during continuous washing, making it difficult to evaluate safety for long-term use. Therefore, we have decided to seek solutions to this issue from researchers across a wide range of fields working with animal models. If you have research ideas using animal models that can evaluate the safety of nasal irrigation products during continuous washing, please submit your proposals through the Innovation Portal linked below. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

One of the proposed solutions to save the critically endangered North Atlantic right whale is to develop a buoy-free fishing gear location technology. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has requested our company to identify new solutions for buoy-free underwater object location. To make this project feasible, it was necessary to identify and track the location of underwater objects (such as fishing gear) that may move from the initial deployment site using a low-cost system, allowing users to detect their location. The system is required to be rope-free, meaning that it cannot indicate location using buoys or floating ropes. A key outcome from this technology scouting project was related to acoustic devices. Our team identified numerous acoustic device solutions, which became strong candidates for the final solution. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.*
