Catalytic Metal Alloys (Isis-8220)
Method to create enhanced metal catalytic alloys by optimising the surface composition by gaseous exposure, producing cost savings for energy and other industrial markets.

Brain Tumour Detection and Treatment (Isis-6855)
Method to selectively increase permeability of the blood-brain barrier at sites of secondary brain tumours.

Heart Arrhythmia (Isis-4315)
A research and diagnostic tool for heart arrhythmogenicity. Existing antiarrhythmic drugs have proved only moderately effective and can produce adverse, life-threatening effects.

Colour Image Sensor (Isis-7311)
Colour image sensor technology using solid state dye-sensitised photodetectors (DSPD) with high sensitivity, reduced dark current leakage and quick response time. Applications include sensors, X-ray detectors and scanners.

The Pressure Regulator, Reinvented (Isis-4220)
Compact, low cost in-line flow control device that is reliable and easy to use.

Water-in-Fuel Sensor (Isis-78451)
A quantitative and simple method for detecting absorbed water in aviation fuel.

Bulk Deposition (Isis-8204)
An electro-plating method that avoids the requirement to oxidise the metal core.

Allergy Treatment (Isis-8248)
Combination therapy for prevention and treatment of disorders associated with mast cell activation such as hay fever and asthma.

Medical Equipment Sterilisation (Isis-78696)
Plasma-based technology for the simultaneous cleaning and sterilisation of medical instruments.

Motor Control Software (Isis-78697)
Integrated development environment for embedded motor/motion control.

Pre-eclampsia Diagnostic (Isis-7305)
A biomarker for assessing the risk of developing pre-eclampsia during pregnancy.

Improved Torque Measurement (Isis-7935)
An approach to monitoring shaft torque without compromising the design or performance of the shaft itself, with applications in the power generation, marine, aerospace and automotive industries, amongst others.

Tooth Test (Isis-7983)
A device to quickly determine whether tooth pulp is dead or alive, serving as an alternative to methods such as electronic pulp testers.
