This technology can be used in the development of yeast-based syntheses of plant alkaloids, or any other biosynthetic pathway that uses 5-hydroxytryptohan or L-DOPA as precursors. It can be used for the synthesis of compound monoterpene indole alkaloids derived from strictosidine (e.g. quinine, camptothecin, ajmalicine, serpentine, vinblastine and vincristine) or benzylisoquinoline alkaloids derived from dopamine (e.g. berberine and morphine).

• Tunable – Broad range of possible interactions with guest molecules

• Sensitive bio-markers of knee healing process 
• Can be used outside of clinical settings 
• Provides quantitative measurements as opposed to qualitative ones

• Faster growth rates result in reduced epitaxy cost
• Ability to grow at lower temperatures reduces thermal budget, stress and wafer bowing
• Ability to grow pseudo-substrates of any III-nitride alloy composition

• Reduces pressure pulses from “fluid-borne noise” which fatigue mechanical seals and cause system leaks
• Reduces “structure-borne vibrations” that create operator discomfort and make it difficult to control tasks that require precision
• Reduces “air-borne noise” that disrupts work-site communication and creates a hazardous work environment

• Property tuning capability
• Improved surface wettability and electrical conductivity which improved alignment of polymer chains
• Increased thermal capability

• Lighter – Carbon fiber is lighter than metals and exhibits significantly higher strength characteristics
• Stronger and More Thermally Stabile – Process produces stronger fibers by using new processing techniques
