[What is Huperzine A]

Huperzia is a type of moss that grows in China. It is related to club mosses (the Lycopodiaceae family) and is known to some botanists as Lycopodium serratum . The whole prepared moss was used traditionally. Modern herbal preparations use only the isolated alkaloid known as huperzine A. Huperzine A is an alkaloid found in huperzia that has been reported to prevent the breakdown of acetylcholine, an important substance needed by the nervous system to transmit information from cell to cell. Animal research has suggested that huperzine A’s ability to preserve acetylcholine may be greater than that of some prescription drugs. Loss of acetylcholine function is a primary feature of several disorders of brain function, including Alzheimer’s disease . Huperzine A may also have a protective effect on brain tissue, further increasing its theoretical potential for helping reduce symptoms of some brain disorders.

[Function] Used in alternative medicine, huperzine A has been found to act as a cholinesterase inhibitor, a type of medicine used to prevent the breakdown of acetylcholine (a chemical essential to learning and memory).

Not only used as a treatment for Alzheimer’s disease, huperzine A is also said to enhance learning and memory and to protect against age-related cognitive decline.

In addition, huperzine A is sometimes used to boost energy, increase alertness, and aid in the treatment of myasthenia gravis (an autoimmune disorder that affects the muscles).

Sprayable Antibacterial Film: A Nanosilver Composite
TEAM: Nathan Cloeter, Luis Correa, Benjamin Lee, Matt Reilly, Mercedes Valero

ABSTRACT: Recent studies suggest that cell phones are one of the surfaces with the most bacteria we encounter in our day, where it was shown that 1 in 6 cellphones are contaminated with fecal matter (Song). Silver nanoparticles have been shown to be highly efficient antibacterial nanoparticles, largely due to the oxidation and release of silver ions (Ferrer, Guo). Composite materials with antibacterial polymers and silver nanoparticles expand the applications of silver nanoparticles for antibacterial purposes, especially because they can be used as coatings for a variety of applications. These composites are beneficial because the nanoparticles can prevent bacterial growth while the polymer can prevent bacterial adhesion. This design takes advantage of the inherent antibacterial properties of chitosan, a polysaccharide extracted from shrimp shells, and the silver nanoparticles to produce a chitosan based polymeric coating with enhanced antibacterial properties. In the design, the properties of the sprayable solution, the nanoparticle formation kinetics and the film properties were studied. We also report on the results from the preliminary prototyping and antibacterial testing of films designed to be applied to the Aluminum back of the iPhone 5.
