Intracellular Delivery of Small Molecule Reactive Ligands for Bioconjugation
A protected small molecule probe is delivered intracellularly and subsequently releases an aryl diazonium ion for use as a bioconjugation agent or drug delivery agent. This technology enables a novel chemical probe for observing intact biological cells. It builds on previous IP developed by Jewett laboratory for protection, as a class of chemistry enabling...

Triazabutadienes as Cleavable Protein Linkers
This technology describes water-soluble triazabutadienes as cleavable cross linkers. Upon changes in chemical conditions, triazabutadienes release a highly reactive diazonium species, enabling delivery of the cross-linked molecule.
Background:
Cross linking is becoming a valuable practice in chemistry, including for life science applications, with...

Releasable Triazabutadienes
This invention is a chemical means of protecting triazylbutadienes from degradation in acidic conditions. When exposed to a predetermined specific enzyme, the system can release triazylbutadiene. Triazylbutadienes can then go on to release aryl diazonium. This aryl species can be apart of various coupling reactions. This invention has the potential...

All-Fiber Multicore Fiber Laser Devices
Researchers at the University of Arizona have developed a compact, power-scalable, alignment-free fiber laser that takes a new approach to stabilizing phase-locked operation of multi-core fiber lasers by completely removing all free space optical components. This high-brightness, all-fiber laser package uses passive optical fiber spliced at both ends...
