| Low Energy Method for Producing Biodiesel
Our technology utilizes a low energy air bubbling process – where air bubbles surround the oil molecules – which not only enables a preferential reaction, but also prevents competition for the base catalyst. This leads to an enhanced rate of biodiesal formation, thereby aiding in the separation of biodiesel from glycerin and gives rise to a higher throughput in biodiesel yield.

Low GI Kueh Bahulu formulation for Haemodialysis Patients
People who have Chronic Kidney Disease require a special diet that is low in sodium and phosphorous levels, low to moderate potassium levels, appropriate protein intake and potentially restrictions in fluids intake. Our Kueh Bahulu formulation is a familiar snack item which meets all the above criteria, and contains sufficient protein and is Low GI, which helps diabetic patients manage their blood sugar levels.
Layered Cake with Jam Suitable for Haemodialysis Patients
People who have Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) require a special diet that is low in sodium and phosphorous levels, low to moderate potassium levels, appropriate protein intake and potentially restrictions in fluids intake. Our Layered Cake with Jam formulation meets all the above criteria, and contains sufficient protein and is Low GI, which helps diabetic patients manage their blood sugar levels. Trials have also been conducted at a local hospital and CKD patients have found the product to be highly palatable.
Low Glycemic Index Banana Chocolate Cupcake (without fructose)
The Low Glycemic Index (GI) banana chocolate cupcake recipe is formulated to providing people with a tasty, low GI snack which does not induce spikes in postprandial glucose levels, and is suitable for people with diabetes and does not contain added fructose which is known to adversely affect plasma lipids.
Low Glycemic Index Brownie (without fructose)
The Low Glycemic Index (GI) brownie recipe is formulated to providing people with a tasty, low GI snack which does not induce spikes in postprandial glucose levels, and is suitable for people with diabetes and does not contain added fructose which is known to adversely affect plasma lipids.
Low Glycemic Index Soy Pudding
The Low Glycemic Index (GI) soy pudding recipe is formulated to providing people with a tasty, low GI snack which does not induce spikes in postprandial glucose levels. The low GI soy pudding also contains inulin (prebiotic), is low in fat content and does not contain added fructose. It is suitable for people with diabetes, health conscious individuals and people who likes to make soy pudding at home.
i-VISION – Licensed non-exclusively to Epvis Pte Ltd and Smart Technology Solutions
i-VISION is an application that sits on a surveillance system of CCTV cameras and Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) and gives it ‘intelligence’ by monitoring actively within the entire camera view. It transforms ordinary passive system into an active one.
Carbon materials for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell
Carbon materials, such as carbon nanotubes, graphite, graphene, et al., were used in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). We introduced these carbon materials as counter electrodes for the DSCs. The efficiency is comparable to that of platinum counter-electrode based devices but much lower cost, which exhibit a new way to commercialization.
EMI Shielding Paint –Licensed to Stratbiz Global Pte Ltd
The invention is the preparation of an electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding paint. When coated on the interior and exterior surfaces of non-metallic small articles or large installation enclosures, it provides EMI protection. The paint developed is environmentally friendly, chemically stable, light weight and good corrosion resistance.
Nano Glass Coating for Energy Saving Applications
The invention is a nano glass coating which can be applied directly onto glass panels, and can be used on glass surfaces with complex shapes. The coating is able to reject more than 90% of Ultraviolet radiation and Infra-Red radiation above 1400nm wavelength while allowing the transmission of at least 60% of the visible light to be transmitted through. This allows the reduction of the total solar energy transmission by more than 50% as compared to untreated clear glass, and an additional 8% reduction when compared to commercially available solar films.
Rapid Diagnosis of Dengue Infections – Licensed to IVD Tech Pte Ltd
We have developed a platform technology using Carbon Nanotube (CNTs)–based labels as a POC diagnostic tool for dengue infections. Since their discovery, CNTs have been of great interest for a wide range of applications, including diagnostics. This approach has good potential as a platform technology for rapid, sensitive and low-cost POC diagnosis of infectious diseases.
Anti-Chafing Cream
Chafing is skin irritation that occurs where skin rubs against skin, clothing, shoes, or other materials. Chafing sometimes refers to red, sore skin that has been irritated by something rubbing against it. Our special formula creates a smooth velvet surface for protection purpose and effective in preventing the chafing problem. For existing condition, it would also temporarily lessen the irritation. Anti-chafing cream is available in cream formulas. Ideal for use every day.
Handheld Solid Dispenser Using a Motor-Driven Auger – Licensed exclusively to Xentiq Pte Ltd
This portable solid dispenser (Fig 1) will help facilitate solid materials weighing. It makes use of a motor-driven auger for solid dispensing with a consistency of more than 97%.The ergonomic design of our prototype allows users to avoid contamination and …..
A Tremor Compensation Device
This invention relates to a handheld or portable device that can compensate for involuntary hand tremor. The device will 1) detect its own motion, 2) distinguish between the intended motion and the tremor, and 3) compensate for the tremor of the tip of the tool (such as a soldering iron, and a writing utensil) attached to the hand-held device. It allows a user with involuntary hand tremor to engage in such as writing, drawing and soldering.
Active-assisted Arm Brace
This invention relates to a device that is designed to assist with upper limb rehabilitation, and allows the clinician to diagnose and make objective assessment on the rehabilitation progress. The device utilizes biofeedback and intelligent controls to help patients undergo both assisted and passive muscle stretching, and allows clinicians to make objective assessment of each therapy session by providing real-time diagnostic information. The invention has potential to be adapted for home-based upper limb rehabilitation usage.
Collaboration Opportunity
Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell
Solar power has received increasing attention over the past decades in order to replace the environmentally damaging and diminishing fossil fuels. Due to easy, low cost and environmentally-friendly fabrication, dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) is much cheaper than traditional silicon PVs and produces power ‘all day every day’.
