Clinical Applications of Epidermal Stem Cells01:19

Clinical Applications of Epidermal Stem Cells

Epidermal stem cells (EpiSCs) are mainly located at the basal layer of the epidermis. These cells repair minor injuries of the skin and replace dead skin cells. However, EpiSCs’ cannot heal severe wounds such as major burns or those from diabetes or hereditary disorders. In such cases, culturing the epidermal stem cells from the patient is possible and has yielded successful treatment options, such as laboratory-grown skin grafts. These grafts are synthesized using a patient’s own EpiSCs...
Sensory Functions of the Skin01:16

Sensory Functions of the Skin

The skin is the largest organ of the human body and plays a crucial role in our sensory perception. It contains a vast network of sensory receptors that contribute to the skin's protective function by perceiving physical, biological, and environmental cues and generating relevant responses.
There are two main categories of receptors on the skin: capsulated and non-capsulated. The non-capsulated ones are mainly the pain receptors. The capsulated ones can be further categorized based on the...

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Electrical Engineering
  • Wearable Technology

Background:

  • Intra-body communication (IBC) is crucial for wearable and implantable devices.
  • Existing IBC methods face challenges with power consumption and miniaturization.
  • Capacitive coupling offers a promising, low-power alternative for short-range communication.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a novel intra-body communication (IBC) technology using capacitive backscatter.
  • To enable batteryless identification through skin-coupled transceivers and tags.
  • To address power limitations in existing IBC systems for enhanced functionality.

Main Methods:

  • A hardware system utilizing skin-coupled electrodes (interrogator and tag) was designed.
  • Capacitive backscatter phenomenon was investigated using RF carriers (40 MHz).
  • An ultra-low powered tag was developed to overcome path gain variations.

Main Results:

  • The system successfully interrogated binary IDs using a 40 MHz RF carrier.
  • Variable tag electrode dimensions caused fluctuating path gain and low tag power.
  • The developed ultra-low powered tag operates at -11 dBm peak RF power.
  • The tag can transmit multiple bursts of 16-bit binary packets.

Conclusions:

  • Capacitive backscatter is a viable technology for intra-body identification.
  • The developed ultra-low powered tag overcomes power limitations for practical applications.
  • This technology facilitates batteryless identification on everyday objects via wearable devices.
