20080292835 | Methods for forming freestanding nanotube objects and objects so formed - Methods for forming freestanding objects primarily comprising aligned carbon nanotubes, as well as the objects made by these methods, are provided. Arrays of generally aligned carbon nanotubes are first synthesized on a substrate then released from the substrate and densified, maintaining the aligned arrangement.

These objects can be further cut or otherwise machined to desired dimensions and shapes. Release from the substrate can be accomplished mechanically, such as by shearing, or chemically, such as by etching. Densification can be accomplished, for example, through compaction or by taking advantage of capillary forces. In the latter case, an array is first wetted with a fluid and then dried. As the fluid is removed, capillary forces draw the nanotubes closer together. | 11-27-2008 |

20100280798 | TOOTH MOVEMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD - A patient's dentition is analysed to determine an orthodontic treatment plan by simulating an intervention in advance. 3D imaging techniques and computer technology are used to simulate and predict tooth movement as a function of the chosen treatment, i.e. a specific orthodontic appliance. In this way treatment options can be compared and the most optimal (shortest treatment time, lowest forces . . . ) treatment for each individual patient can be selected. Sub-steps of the tooth movement are not predefined but computed based on a simulation of orthodontic elements and wire as they would be used in the orthodontic treatment of the patient. This means that the sub-steps are calculated based on the relationship between the applied loads and the tooth movement; only one of both parameters can be chosen freely. Thus, either the tooth load is specified and applied in order to calculate the resulting tooth movement or vice versa the tooth movement is specified and applied in order to calculate the tooth load that should be applied. Moreover, the current invention allows predicting the time at which brackets and/or archwire should be changed, and comparing different treatment options with respect to tooth loading and duration. | 11-04-2010 |

20090286687 | Method and Compositions for Detection and Enumeration of Genetic Variations - Many areas of biomedical research depend on the analysis of uncommon variations in individual genes or transcripts. Here we describe a method that can quantify such variation at a scale and ease heretofore unattainable. Each DNA molecule in a collection of such molecules is converted into a single particle to which thousands of copies of DNA identical in sequence to the original are bound. This population of beads then corresponds to a one-to-one representation of the starting DNA molecules. Variation within the original population of DNA molecules can then be simply assessed by counting fluorescently-labeled particles via flow cytometry. Millions of individual DNA molecules can be assessed in this fashion with standard laboratory equipment. Moreover, specific variants can be isolated by flow sorting and employed for further experimentation. This approach can be used for the identification and quantification of rare mutations as well as to study variations in gene sequences or transcripts in specific populations or tissues. | 11-19-2009 |
20130210645 | PERSONALIZED TUMOR BIOMARKERS - Clinical management of human cancer is dependent on the accurate monitoring of residual and recurrent tumors. We have developed a method, called personalized analysis of rearranged ends (PARE), which can identify translocations in solid tumors. Analysis of four colorectal and two breast cancers revealed an average of nine rearranged sequences (range 4 to 15) per tumor. Polymerase chain reaction with primers spanning the breakpoints were able to detect mutant DNA molecules present at levels lower than 0.001% and readily identified mutated circulating DNA in patient plasma samples. This approach provides an exquisitely sensitive and broadly applicable approach for the development of personalized biomarkers to enhance the clinical management of cancer patients. | 08-15-2013 |
