| 20120019382 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE REMOTE MONITORING OF POTTED PLANTS - The invention relates to a system and method for determining the state, state changes, and/or condition changes of a potted plant and for indicating the determined state of said object to the owner or user thereof, wherein the system and method locally determine at least one physical and/or chemical parameter on top of on the side of or in the immediate vicinity of the plant ( | 01-26-2012 |
| 20100276734 | ELECTROCHEMICAL BIOSENSOR ARRAYS AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF MAKING SAME - Electrochemical biosensor arrays and systems, as well as methods of making the electrochemical biosensor arrays and systems, are described herein. The electrochemical biosensor systems can be used with CMOS detection circuits that have a plurality of chemical detection and/or actuation channels or sites. The biosensor systems generally include a first inert conducting electrode disposed on a first portion of a CMOS detection circuit and a polymeric layer adjacent the first inert conducting electrode. The biosensor systems can also include a capture biomolecule bound to the polymeric layer. The biosensor system can also include the CMOS detection and/or actuation circuit having a plurality of channels. | 11-04-2010 |
| 20090252965 | Surface functionalization and coating of flame-generated nanoparticles - A method for generating a chemically bonded organic functionality on the surface of particles or for condensing an organic compound onto the particle surface giving an organic coating is described. The method comprises a step of contacting a vapour containing an organic compound and a gaseous process stream containing flame-generated particles so as to react the organic compound with surface groups on the particles to give a chemically bonded organic functionality to the particle surface or so as to result in an organic coating. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090215588 | Device and Method for an Automatic Treadmill Therapy - A method to control the velocity of a treadmill according to the walking velocity of the person that is using the treadmill. A reaction force is measured, which occurs when a longitudinal repulsion force is created between the treadmill ( | 08-27-2009 |
| 20090186838 | Amphotericin Derivatives - The present invention provides new polyene macrolide derivatives which show very low toxicity while retaining high antifungal activity as compared with amphotericin B (AmB). These polyene macrolide derivatives comprise a polyene macrolide backbone having at least one free amino group, wherein the amino group is doubly alkylated with at least one hydrocarbon group carrying a total of at least two basic groups. | 07-23-2009 |
