20120227204 | Ice Skate Blade Cleaner - An ice skate blade maintenance device is provided for removing built-up ice from the surfaces of a skate blade without requiring a skater's hands. The device comprises a backing member, a blade-receiving block having one or a plurality of blade grooves, and a plurality of mounting holes. The backing member may be a surface, block or wedge shape that may be removably secured to a backing structure via fasteners inserted through member mounting holes. The blade-receiving block is secured to the upper surface of the backing member. The blade grooves comprise “Y” shaped channels disposed in parallel alignment along the block for a user to remove ice from a skate blade by sliding the blade therethrough, whereby the walls of the groove contact the blade and remove ice therefrom. The device is preferably comprised of a soft, durable material to prevent damage or dulling of a blade during its use. | 09-13-2012 |

20120103789 | Greener Synthesis of Nanoparticles Using Fine Tuned Hydrothermal Routes - The synthesis of energy and sensor relevant nanomaterials that involves the colloidal synthesis of quantum dots (e.g. CdSe, CdS, ZnS, CdSe/ZnS) under well-controlled hydrothermal conditions (100-200 degrees C.) using simple inorganic precursors. The resulting nanomaterials are of high quality, and are easily processed depending upon application, and their synthesis is scalable. Scalability is provided by the use of a synthetic microwave reactor, which employs dielectric heating for the rapid and controllable heating. | 05-03-2012 |
20120114962 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SYNTHESIZING CORE/ALLOY NANOSTRUCTURES - A system and method to tailor the optical properties of nanomaterials using a core-alloy-shell nano-ultrastructure. Atomic diffusion is used at the nanoscale in order to process as-synthesized nanomaterials into core-alloy-shell architectures. The alloy formation is controlled by the deposition of the alloy solute atoms, and then by alloy interdiffusion of the solute into the core nanoparticle. By controlling temperature, it is possible to control how far the solute diffuses into the core, which in turn allows the tailoring of the optical response of the particle itself. The alloy formation and subsequent interdiffusion allows tailoring of the nanoparticle composition and ultrastructure, resulting in a dramatic tunability of the metal nanostructures surface plasmon response. | 05-10-2012 |
20120141550 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DELIVERY OF DNA-BINDING CHEMOTHERAPY DRUGS USING NANOPARTICLES - System and method for loading the front line anticancer drug, doxorubicin (DOX) onto DNA-capped gold nanoparticles whose duplex DNA has been designed for specific DOX intercalation. Since each AuNP contains about 108 high affinity drug sites, this design allows for a high local DOX concentration on the particle. Drug binding was confirmed by monitoring the increase in DNA melting temperature, the shift in the plasmon resonance maximum, and the increase in the NP hydrodynamic radius as a function of [DOX]/[DNA] ratio. The feasibility of the nanoparticles as a drug delivery system was demonstrated by showing that particle-bound DOX could be transferred to a target DNA. | 06-07-2012 |
