| 20120021453 | LABEL-FREE CELL SORTING USING NEAR INFRARED EMISSION - Disclosed are methods and systems for identifying and sorting cells based on a near-infrared emission pattern of the cell in response to excitation at 630±nm. The NIR emission pattern can be used for monitoring and sorting of cells in a label-free manner, and thus provides a positive method for selecting cells, such as stem cells, for use in therapy. | 01-26-2012 |
| 20110250670 | LIGHT ENERGY-INDUCED STABILITY OF BIOMATERIALS - Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for stabilizing labile biomolecules in an aqueous solution without the use of chemicals. For example, some embodiments involve exposing an aqueous solution of a labile biomolecule, such as a protein, to light energy to stabilize the biomolecule in the solution. | 10-13-2011 |
| 20110249897 | CHARACTER RECOGNITION - Systems and methods for character recognition by performing lateral view-based analysis on the character data and generating a feature vector based on the lateral view-based analysis. | 10-13-2011 |
| 20110158163 | ENERGY EFFICIENT INTEGRATED ROUTING PROTOCOL - A Link Layer (e.g., TCP/IP Layer 1, OSI Layer 2) routing protocol that routes frames from a sending node to a receiving node based upon service solicitation and availability is proposed. The routing protocol may reduce control messages across the layers, and may achieve greater energy efficiency by placing non-participating nodes into a sleep mode for durations of time while an ad hoc network is being utilized by participating nodes. The proposed scheme may also reduce network setup time by enabling routing as soon as a service and corresponding request is initiated. | 06-30-2011 |
| 20110099645 | ANIMAL MODEL FOR CIGARETTE-SMOKE-INDUCED ATHEROSCLEROSIS AND RELATED METHODS - Provided herein are non-human animal models and related methods useful for the identification, characterization, and analysis of the effects of environmental stimuli on the development and progression of pathological conditions. The environmental stimuli can include, but are not limited to, exposure to tobacco (e.g., cigarette, etc.) smoke. Exemplary pathological conditions include, but are not limited to, atherosclerosis, other cardiovascular disease (CVD), and the like. Also provided herein are non-human animal models and related methods useful for the identification, characterization, and analysis of pharmaceutical compounds, compositions, and/or formulations that can be used to prevent or treat a given pathological condition brought on by exposure to a given environmental condition. | 04-28-2011 |
| 20110053172 | ONE STEP NANOSENSOR FOR SINGLE AND MULTIDRUG RESISTANCE IN ACUTE CORONARY SYNDROME (ACS) - An embodiment relates to a method of detecting a drug resistance in a patient comprising adding nanoparticles to sample platelets to form activated platelets containing the nanoparticles and comparing a difference in activation of the activated platelets and the sample platelets. Another embodiment relates to a method of monitoring a thrombotic risk factor in a subject in a general population comprising adding nanoparticles to sample platelets to form activated platelets containing the nanoparticles and comparing a difference in activation of the activated platelets and the sample platelets. Yet another embodiment relates to a kit comprising nanoparticles, a fluorescence dye tagged antibody and optionally a buffer, wherein the kit is configured to detect a drug resistance in a patient or a likelihood of the thrombotic risk factor in a subject in general population. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20110046489 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS EMPLOYING GIANT STOKES SHIFT - A method comprising exposing a sample comprising water to near infrared (NIR) light and detecting the presence of one or more objects by measuring a Stokes shift in the emission spectra in the near infrared. | 02-24-2011 |
