20090217965 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ENHANCED SOLAR POWER GENERATION AND MAXIMUM POWER POINT TRACKING - Disclosed is an apparatus and methodology for generating operating power for various desired applications using solar energy. A solar array is formed using a small number of solar cells connected in series to form a string of solar cells and then connecting multiple strings in parallel. Unlike conventional solar arrays, no bypass diodes are incorporated into the array. A power converter is coupled to the array to boost output voltage to a level sufficient to operate the desired application. The power converter may be operated independently or based on output levels of the array, the material from which the solar cells of the array are constructed and the operating temperature of the array or combinations thereof. | 09-03-2009 |

20110052713 | REPAIRING DAMAGED NERVOUS SYSTEM TISSUE WITH NANOPARTICLES - The present application relates to reduction of acrolein-mediated cell death following neural insult. According to at least one embodiment, chitosan is utilized as a membrane fusogen to restore cell function. According to at least one other embodiment, chitosan or silica is used to create a non-toxic polymer surfaced microcolloid (PSM). PSMs were found to preferentially target the damaged nerve tissues; to restore conduction of nerve impulses; to seal/restore nerve fiber membranes; and to reduce to baseline the efflux of a large intracellular enzyme. PSMs are further used as a drug delivery vehicle for acrolein scavengers including hydralazine. | 03-03-2011 |
