Translation of such devices into biomedical applications requires molecular engineers to first address the susceptibility of DNA nanostructures to nuclease degradation, as well as their ability to activate an inflammatory immune response.
For example, despite several publications that have addressed translation of optical imaging devices [ 30– 32], very few published validation protocols exist for batch release criteria for imaging devices and molecular imaging agents.
Recently, mobile phone-based microscopy platforms are emerging to provide alternatives to conventional benchtop microscopes; translation of mobile phone devices into hand-held microscopy platforms relies on the creation of lightweight, compact, and mechanically robust imaging attachments that can be added onto the existing camera module of the mobile phone.
In order to facilitate the clinical translation of bioprinting, hand held device (Biopen) was developed for intraoperative bioprinting (O'Connell et al. 2016).
While the narrative can become tiresome with its periodic translation of language into food, this device is also used as a way of exploring the early estrangement between Linda and her adoptive mother: "Momchocolatemilk, honest.
As an example we here show the translation of a technical temperature control device into biological proteins: As a starting point for the translation from a technical to a biological process, all proteins allowing the temperature detection have to be found.
"Fast and accurate translations are possible with any smartphone, regardless of device specifications, because Hanashite Hon'yaku utilises Docomo's cloud [remote computer servers] for processing".
"The promotional video in question was created with an intention to showcase the effectiveness of the translation device.
The Tower of Babel translator is a prototype translation device that functions in a completely different fashion from existing translators.
"It is an important step towards demonstrating the translation of basic research into a practical device," said Willner.
