The technology is intended to face the main problems of transmucosal dental implants, such as peri-implant mucositis, peri-implantitis and epithelial downgrowth. The strategy foresees the development of a surface able to favor soft tissues growth (gum sealing), limit at the implant collar these tissues, reduce bacterial adhesion and eventually have an antibacterial action.

In this section it is possible to view, also through targeted research, the technologies inserted in the PROMO-TT Database. For further information on the technologies and to contact the CNR Research Teams who developed them, it is necessary to contact the Project Manager (see the references at the bottom of each record card).

IMM has developed tactile sensors for the detection of objects and surface and for the handling of objects with humanoid robots (e-skin). These devices can be integrated on ultra-flexible and high conformable substrates and they can be used for multiple applications: 1) for a correct interaction with objects distributed in complex environment; 2) for a safe short-range interaction between humanoid robot and humans; 3) for fabricating smart wearables for the detection of biometric parameters (e.g. heartbeat); 4) for remotely control rovers with wearable gadgets.
We present a technology for the multiscale isolation (analytical-laboratory-production) of Extracellular Vesicles (VE), which overcomes the limitations of the currently available methods. As opposed to traditional "affinity-based" systems that exploit antibodies, our technology represents a radical paradigm shift in the development of affinity probes for vesicles, i.e.
Our treatment demonstrated the ability to kill metastatic human melanoma cells, for which there are very few effective therapeutic approaches. Use of a specific Essential Oil (EO) to inhibit the replication of human metastatic melanoma cells. This EO can be used both for direct application to the skin, and administered by mouth to reach both primary and metastatic melanomas.
Environmental monitoring is a rapidly growing field, both in academia and industry. The use of wearables for environmental monitoring is a promising technique, as it allows data to be collected continuously and comprehensively. The main problem with using wearables for environmental monitoring is the size and weight of the system, as well as the high degree of specialization required to develop a fully functional device.
