In order to investigate proteins in their natural environment one can attach tiny reporter molecules to them that can be traced with appropriate instruments. However, these small reporter molecules may often cause strong perturbations to the functionality of the proteins, or cannot be seen due to experimental restrictions like low concentrations. Bioorthogonal chemistry aims to […]

This project will allow Apollogreen and Loyalist College’s Applied Research Centre (ARC) to establish expertise based on a new analytical approach of cannabinoids at an early growth stage, allowing them to analyse and select cultivars to be commercially grown based on the sought after components for specific applications of licenced producers. This analytical process uses […]

The production of biogas via the anaerobic digestion of organic waste is a growing industry in Canada. One benefit of this approach is that the resultant organic waste (digestate) can be dewatered and used as fertilizer; however, the removed water fraction remains rich in organic compounds and must be adequately treated before being discharged from […]

AMCO requires improvements to the alternate energy systems that cannot be supported by operating profits alone. This project is essential to ensure the company remains viable and that the company does not shut down the Biomass Plant and absorb such debt in its current operations. The project will increase the amount of green energy production […]

With the onset of COVID-19, the commercial real estate industry has been greatly impacted as fewer individuals and businesses are using office spaces. As such, with growing uncertainty, it is imperative to adapt, develop, and strategically plan for the foreseeable future. This project serves two purposes: 1) Assist in operational transformation using cloud-based technology and […]

The world is currently facing a biodiversity crisis driven by the loss and degradation of habitat resulting from the conversion of natural areas to agricultural land and urban development. To combat this biodiversity crisis, the government committed to Convention of Biological Diversity and national targets of protecting at least 17% of terrestrial land through network […]

Because of the usefulness of non-destructive testing in the assessment of different types of materials, they have attracted widespread interest in the last years. Non-destructive testing (NDT) is a descriptive term used for the examination of materials and components in such a way that allows materials to be examined without changing or destroying their function. […]

Data analysis plays an important role in healthcare as it enables service providers to discover hidden knowledge in the data, allowing them make more informed decisions about patients’ health. The continuing increase in the amount of data and lack of skilled people, however, has made data analysis very challenging. This project aims at developing web-based […]

Facing unprecedented times, Go Bee has decided to add a new division, Connector to leverage the firm’s strong capabilities in the digital product sampling space by providing a virtual […]

Today, decisions on which products continue in the product line even when it’s near its end of the lifecycle are arbitrary and often made intuitively based on gut feelings. This could incur serious and unnecessary financial loss, and also means the decision is made in a mostly qualitative fashion and doesn’t include as much quantitative […]

Spinal fixation, the process by which a broken spine is mended, or a deformed spine corrected, can involve the placement of tens of pedicle screws during lengthy surgical operations. With an ageing population the overall demand for these procedures is increasing. Surgeon fatigue is an issue in these procedures and has demonstrated decreased performance. Our […]

Anaerobic Digesters are used in farm-based, municipal and industrial settings to convert wastes (manure and crop residues) as well as other feedstock material (fat, grease, oil and food wastes) to biogas. Produced digestate is rich in nutrients such as phosphate, nitrogen, (and other minor nutrients) and is mixed with water that makes the transportation costly […]
