20110229545 | MELT EMULSIFICATION - The present invention generally relates to colloidal systems, which may include colloidal particles and/or other types of particles. One aspect of the invention is generally directed to a system comprising fluidic droplets that can be at least partially solidified, e.g., to form colloidal particles. In some embodiments, particles comprising an at least partially solid outer phase encapsulating an inner phase are formed. The inner phase may be any phase, e.g., a solid, a liquid, or a gas. In some cases, solidifying at least a portion of the outer phase of the droplets to form particles may increase the stability of the particles and/or the colloidal system containing the particles. In one set of embodiments, melting or liquefying the outer phase of the particles (for example, by heating the particle to a temperature above a threshold temperature) can allow release of an agent contained within the inner phase, and/or allow the inner phase to coalesce with a phase external to the particles. The melting temperature of the outer phase can be controlled in some embodiments such that the outer phase will melt above a predetermined temperature. In some embodiments, the particles may be formed to be essentially free of an auxiliary stabilizing agent. In some embodiments, an agent may be encapsulated within a particle with relatively high efficiency. Other aspects of the invention are generally directed to methods of making and using such colloidal systems, e.g., containing such particles, kits involving such colloidal systems, or the like. | 09-22-2011 |

20150157569 | Stabilized All-Aqueous Emulsions and Methods of Making and Using Thereof - Methods for preparing all-aqueous emulsions, including stable emulsions or emulsions having high viscosity and/or ultra-low interfacial tension are described. The method includes mixing, combining, or contacting a first electrically charged phase containing a first solute (e.g., dispersed phase) with at least a second phase containing a second solute (e.g., continuous phase). The solutes are incompatible with each other. The electrostatic forces between the two phases induce the formation of droplets of a dispersed phase in a continuous phase. The dispersed and continuous phases contain oppositely charged molecules, such as surfactants or other macromolecules and colloids which stabilize the drops of the dispersed phase. Complex coacervation of the oppositely charged molecules or colloids at the interface of the two aqueous phases results in formation of a membrane or barrier which prevents coalescence or aggregation of the droplets. The membrane also prevents leakage of any encapsulated agents from the droplets. | 06-11-2015 |
20150157576 | Core-Shell Capsules for Encapsulation of Particles, Colloids, and Cells - Methods for preparing capsules, such as micro- and/or nanocapsules from all-aqueous emulsions are described herein. The method includes mixing, combining, or contacting a first electrically charged phase containing a first solute with at least an optionally charged second phase containing a second solute. The solutes are incompatible with each other. The electrostatic forces between the two solutions induce the formation of droplets of a dispersed phase in a continuous phase. The droplets are then solidified to form the capsules. | 06-11-2015 |
20150342891 | OSMOTIC DRYING OF ALL-AQUEOUS EMULSIONS - A one-step method for fabricating solidified particles from all-aqueous emulsion droplets involves solidification and drying of the droplets by osmosis. According to this method the fabrication of solidified particles is induced by implementing a high osmotic pressure gradient between the internal phase and external phase of the all-aqueous emulsion. The resultant extraction of water leads to solidification of the emulsion droplets. This approach provides mild conditions for encapsulating bioactive ingredients or other delicate components to conveniently fabricate bio- and cyto-compatible particles because it does not involve the introduction of external energy used in conventional drying. Such conventional external energy inputs are time-consuming, so the method is more efficient. | 12-03-2015 |

20100153774 | DATA STORAGE SYSTEM, METHOD AND DATA STORAGE AND BACKKUP SYSTEM - A data storage system, method and a data storage and backup system are provided. The data storage method comprises defining a local storage of the data processing system as a journal vault; storing data in the journal vault by journaling; sending the data from the journal vault to a transmitter; and transmitting the data from the transmitter to a secondary storage. The present invention enhances a write function of a low performance storage device by journaling. In a case where the present invention is applied to a backup system, the performance of the whole backup system can be improved significantly, and the backup system can be extended to a remote site easily. When a storage of a production system fails, the storage system of the present invention can be switched to “production mode” and service resumes to be provided with the shortest downtime. | 06-17-2010 |

20130163257 | Strobe Zoom Device - In a strobe zoom device of an electrically driven feed screw type, to reduce the sound pressure level of zoom operation sound caused by an electrically driven feed screw and to allow strobe imaging to be performed quietly, the electrically driven feed screw for strobe zoom includes: a feed screw rod ( | 06-27-2013 |
20140104809 | Electronic Flash Device - An electronic flash device is properly protected from thermal damages without requiring an expensive heat resistant temperature sensor to be mounted on a flash tube thereof. A heat generation accumulated value is incremented by each activation of the flash unit and decremented by elapsing of each unit time. An activation of the flash unit is permitted when the heat generation accumulated value is no more than a prescribed value and is prohibited when the heat generation accumulated value is more than the prescribed value. | 04-17-2014 |

20090000016 | Toilet Bowl Cleaning And/Or Deodorizing Device - A device for spraying an inner surface of a toilet bowl with a cleaning fluid is disclosed. The device includes a container for the fluid, a fluid sprayer through which the fluid can be sprayed on the inner surface of the wall of the enclosure, a pumping apparatus for delivering fluid from the container to the fluid sprayer, a sensor for detecting the presence of an object near the fluid sprayer, and a controller. The controller executes a stored program that activates the sensor at a beginning time of a time interval before a scheduled spraying time stored in the controller, monitors electrical signals from the sensor during the time interval to determine if an object is near the fluid sprayer, and if the controller determines that an object has not been near the sensor during the time interval, activates the pumping apparatus for delivering fluid from the container to the fluid sprayer. | 01-01-2009 |
