20150083369 | METALLIC THIN-FILM BONDING AND ALLOY GENERATION - Diffusion bonding a stack of aluminum thin films is particularly challenging due to a stable aluminum oxide coating that rapidly forms on the aluminum thin films when they are exposed to atmosphere and the relatively low meting temperature of aluminum. By plating the individual aluminum thin films with a metal that does not rapidly form a stable oxide coating, the individual aluminum thin films may be readily diffusion bonded together using heat and pressure. The resulting diffusion bonded structure can be an alloy of choice through the use of a carefully selected base and plating metals. The aluminum thin films may also be etched with distinct patterns that form a microfluidic fluid flow path through the stack of aluminum thin films when diffusion bonded together. | 03-26-2015 |

20090294424 | SELF-SEEDED SINGLE-FREQUENCY LASER PEENING METHOD - A method of operating a laser to obtain an output pulse having a single wavelength, comprises inducing an intracavity loss into a laser resonator having an amount that prevents oscillation during a time that energy from the pump source is being stored in the gain medium. Gain is built up in the gain medium with energy from the pump source until formation of a single-frequency relaxation oscillation pulse in the resonator. Upon detection of the onset of the relaxation oscillation pulse, the intracavity loss is reduced, such as by Q-switching, so that the built-up gain stored in the gain medium is output from the resonator in the form of an output pulse at a single frequency. An electronically controllable output coupler is controlled to affect output pulse characteristics. The laser acts a master oscillator in a master oscillator power amplifier configuration. The laser is used for laser peening. | 12-03-2009 |

20120038107 | Canz - My invention is a game called Canz that youth play as a hobby. Canz is a two player game that requires a ball and can be played with one or two condensed cans. The two condensed cans are placed ten feet apart from one another on the sidewalk. Each player stands behind their can and take turns throwing the ball at their opponent condensed can. The condensed can must be placed in the appropriate spot on the line before a shot attempt is taken. Players may move further back to increase their point value. The line where each player can is placed represents ten points and each line after that represents increments of ten points. The first player to 100 points total is declared the winner. | 02-16-2012 |

20130173013 | Composite Bone Graft, Method of Making and Using the Same - The invention is directed to a composite bone graft for implantation in a patient, and methods of making and using the composite bone graft, along with methods for treating patients by implanting the composite bone graft at a site in a patient. | 07-04-2013 |
20140154663 | Process for Devitalizing Soft-Tissue Engineered Medical Implants, and Devitalized Soft-Tissue Medical Implants Produced - The invention provides methodologies and apparatus for producing devitalized soft-tissue implants where the implant retains metabolically non-viable and/or reproductively non-viable cells, and preferably retains large molecular weight cytoplasmic proteins, such implants produced both in small quantities and in commercializable quantities. Such soft-tissue implants include vascular graft substitutes. A devitalized graft is produced by subjecting the tissue sample to an induced pressure mediated flow of an extracting solution, optionally followed by inducing a pressure mediated flow of a salt solution, then washing the tissue to produce the devitalized graft. The devitalized grafts produced are uniform and non-immunogenic. The inventive method allows for the production of multiple devitalized soft tissue implants, where processing time is significantly less than prior art processes and the number of implants produced per day is increased over prior art processes. In clinical use, the devitalized grafts produced exhibit significantly improved in long-term durability and function, and enhanced recellularization post-implantation. | 06-05-2014 |
20140341871 | REGENERATIVE TISSUE MATRIX - A process for the preparation of a tissue matrix suitable for regenerative repair of tissues, including contacting an isolated connective tissue with an amount of detergent and an amount of disinfectant to significantly reduce at least one of lipids, phospholipids, nucleic acids, major histocompatibility (MHC) antigens, contaminating microorganisms, and endotoxins. The process further provides for less significant reduction in proteoglycan content while retaining the overall structure of the tissue matrix produced. Processing may further include micronizing the tissue matrix. Also, a tissue matrix having a scaffold portion and non-structural portion, collectively structured to promote cellular infiltration, attachment, and proliferation. The tissue matrix may be in the form of a sheet, thick sheet, or micronized. Also, kits including a prepared tissue matrix for use in regenerative repair, and kits for preparing a tissue matrix. | 11-20-2014 |

20090041729 | Process for Decellularizing Soft-Tissue Engineered Medical Implants, and Decellularized Soft-Tissue Medical Implants Produced - The invention provides methodologies and apparatus for producing acellular soft-tissue implants, both in small quantities and in commercializable quantities. Such soft-tissue implants include vascular graft substitutes. An acellular graft is produced by subjecting the tissue sample to an induced pressure mediated flow of an extracting solution, followed by inducing a pressure mediated flow of a treating solution, then washing the treated tissue to produce the acellular graft. The acellular grafts produced are uniform and non-immunogenic. The inventive method allows for the production of multiple decellularized soft tissue implants, where processing time is significantly less than prior art processes and the number of implants produced per day is increased over prior art processes. In clinical use, the decellularized grafts produced exhibit significantly improved in long-term durability and function. | 02-12-2009 |

20110015757 | Plasticized Bone and Soft Tissue Grafts and Methods of Making and Using Same - The present invention provides a plasticized dehydrated or freeze-dried bone and/or soft tissue product that does not require special conditions of storage, for example refrigeration or freezing, exhibits materials properties that approximate those properties present in normal hydrated tissue, is not brittle, does not necessitate rehydration prior to clinical implantation and is not a potential source for disease transmission. The invention replaces water in the molecular structure of the bone or soft tissue matrix with one or more plasticizers allowing for dehydration of the tissue, yet not resulting in an increase in brittleness of the plasticized product, and resulting in compressive and/or tensile properties similar to those of normal hydrated bone. Replacement of the chemical plasticizers by water prior to implantation is not required and thus, the dehydrated bone or soft tissue plasticized product can be placed directly into an implant site without significant preparation in the operating room. | 01-20-2011 |
