20120067226 | IMPINGEMENT/CONVECTION/MICROWAVE OVEN AND METHOD - A combination oven that is operable with convection air, impingement air and microwave energy in various combinations thereof. The oven has an oven chamber and a fan box that are located front to back. A fan in the fan box circulates heated air by discharging via openings in a top and a bottom and taking in via an intermediate opening of a baffle plate. Impingement plates are easily installed and removed in the oven chamber to provide impingement air upwardly or downwardly. At least one of the impingement plates is installed and removed by a sliding motion. Microwave energy is provided through the side walls of the oven chamber. | 03-22-2012 |

20120200694 | MULTI-MODALITY CONTRAST AND BRIGHTFIELD CONTEXT RENDERING FOR ENHANCED PATHOLOGY DETERMINATION AND MULTI-ANALYTE DETECTION IN TISSUE - Multiple modality contrast can be used to produce images that can be combined and rendered to produce images similar to those produced with wavelength absorbing stains viewed under transmitted white light illumination. Images obtained with other complementary contrast modalities can be presented using engineered color schemes based on classical contrast methods used to reveal the same anatomical structures and histochemistry, thereby providing relevance to medical training and experience. Dark-field contrast images derived from refractive index and fluorescent DAPI counterstain images are combined to produce images similar to those obtained with conventional H&E staining for pathology interpretation. Such multi-modal image data can be streamed for live navigation of histological samples, and can be combined with molecular localizations of genetic DNA probes (FISH), sites of mRNA expression (mRNA-ISH), and immunohistochemical (IHC) probes localized on the same tissue sections, used to evaluate and map tissue sections prepared for imaging mass spectrometry. | 08-09-2012 |
20130109019 | HAPTEN CONJUGATES FOR TARGET DETECTION | 05-02-2013 |
20130260379 | SIGNALING CONJUGATES AND METHODS OF USE - Disclosed herein are embodiments of a signaling conjugate, embodiments of a method of using the signaling conjugates, and embodiments of a kit comprising the signaling conjugate. The disclosed signaling conjugate comprises a latent reactive moiety and a chromogenic moiety that may further comprise a linker suitable for coupling the latent reactive moiety to the chromogenic moiety. The signaling conjugate may be used to detect one or more targets in a biological sample and are capable of being covalently deposited directly on or proximally to the target. Particular disclosed embodiments of the method of using the signaling conjugate comprise multiplexing methods. | 10-03-2013 |

20120213631 | UNFLARED COMPRESSOR BLADE - A compressor component having an airfoil with a profile in accordance with Table 1 is disclosed. The compressor component, such as a compressor blade, has an increased thickness over a portion of the airfoil span in order to increase stiffness. Furthermore, the airfoil has been restacked so as to induce a compressive stress in the blade root/attachment area. The increased stiffness and restacked airfoil combine to improve high-cycle fatigue capability of the compressor component. | 08-23-2012 |
20130216387 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BLADE RETENTION - A system and method for securing a blade within a disk so as to eliminate the need for permanently deforming materials associated with the blade disk is disclosed. A recess is formed generally within each slot used to secure a blade within the disk. A retaining insert is positioned within the recess and a wedge insert is positioned within a slot of the retaining insert, such that a pressure is applied to the retaining insert thereby deflecting the retaining insert into a pre-set radial position to prevent axial movement of the blade within the slot of the disk. | 08-22-2013 |

20140039446 | PATIENT CARE SYSTEM FOR CRITICAL MEDICATIONS - A patient care system has a medical pump for delivering a medicine to a patient, and a processor in communication with the pump. The pump is configured to receive a first input on whether the medicine is a critical medicine, and a second input on a trigger condition that triggers a fail-operate mode for the critical medicine. The processor controls the medical pump to operate in the fail-operate mode, where the fail-operate mode continues delivery of the critical medicine when the trigger condition is triggered. | 02-06-2014 |
20150088070 | FAIL-SAFE DRUG INFUSION THERAPY SYSTEM - A fail-safe drug infusion system, including a user interface controller (UIC) and at least one pump motor controller (PMC), with protocols that enable the PMC to operate therapy delivery for a limited amount of time if the UIC fails or the communication link between the UIC and the PMC is interrupted. Includes synchronization methods to synchronize the delivery information back to the UIC after the UIC reboots or after the communication link is restored. The PMC may apply intelligent fail-safe drug infusion therapy by temporarily displaying therapy information, for example information normally displayed by the UIC, while taking control of alarm signaling and providing minimal user control of the therapy until the UIC restores itself, the infusion completes normally, or the user stops the infusion. If the PMC becomes inoperable, the UIC may wait for the PMC to reboot, or attempt to switch infusion channels to provide robust drug infusion. | 03-26-2015 |
