A New Nixtimalization Process
Working together, researchers at the University of Illinois and the University of Sinaloa, Mexico, have developed a new method of nixtamalization, the process of treating corn in an alkaline solution, that yields a higher-quality masa dough and/or instant masa flour than traditional nixtamalization processes.

New Technologies for Cost-Efficient Manufacture and Improved Functionality of Microfluidic Devices for Medical and Biological Applications
These three technologies improve the manufacturing and functionality of microfluidic devices. The technologies enable fast, easy, and inexpensive construction of microfluidic devices that can perform complex functions, have innovative designs, and operate autonomously. Devices fabricated using these technologies offer self-regulating functions, better "constriction regions" for positioning objects within the device, and the ability to create a large liquid-air interface by means of "virtual walls" in the device's channels.
