20140118083 | ELECTRONICALLY TUNABLE ACTIVE DUPLEXER SYSTEM AND METHOD - This invention provides a novel electronically tunable active duplexer for wireless transceiver applications. It relates to an active duplexer with full-duplex operation, permitting simultaneous transmission and reception of signals at same or different frequencies. Instead of incorporating fixed or mechanically adjustable capacitors, and even instead of incorporating varactor diodes, it incorporates one or more capacitance tuning circuit in phase shifting networks enabling one to electronically tune, with ease and precision, the frequency at which isolation is desired, over a band in both transmit and receive modes of operations. | 05-01-2014 |
20130269909 | HEAT TRANSFER APPARATUS AND METHOD - A heat transfer apparatus and related methods are provided. The heat transfer apparatus and related methods more evenly distribute fluid flow in two-phase heat exchange systems by restricting fluid flow to one or more tube. | 10-17-2013 |
20090117050 | STEM CELL TARGETING OF CANCER, METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS THEREFOR - Disclosed are methods of detecting and treating a cancer such as an ovarian cancer using stem cells. Detection methods include administering a plurality of labeled stem cells to a subject having, or suspected of having, a cancer; and detecting the distribution of the stem cells. In some configurations, the label can be a nanoparticle such as a mono-crystalline iron oxide, which can be detected by magnetic resonance imaging. Treatment methods include administering a plurality of stem cells comprising a therapeutic agent such as an enzyme which activates a prodrug. In some configurations, the stem cells harbor a nucleic acid sequence encoding a cytosine deaminase, the cells express the enzyme, and the treatment further includes administering the prodrug 5-fluorocytosine, which is converted by the cytosine deaminase to the cytotoxic metabolite, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). | 05-07-2009 |
