| 20120101007 | SILVER NANOPLATES - A sensor for detecting of an analyte in a solution phase comprises a plurality of functionalised silver nanoplates wherein a functionalising agent is directly bonded to the surfaces of the nanoplates. The nanoplates provide a detectable wavelength shift change in their local surface plasmon resonance spectrum in response to the binding of an analyte. Two or more of the nanoplates may be electromagnetically coupled. | 04-26-2012 |

| 20110132358 | INHALER - An inhaler is disclosed. It comprises a housing to receive a strip of blisters each having a puncturable lid and containing a dose of medicament for inhalation by a user, a mouthpiece through which a dose of medicament is inhaled by a user and, an actuator operable to sequentially move each blister into alignment with a blister piercing member. The actuator is also operable to cause the blister piercing element to puncture the lid of a blister such that, when a user inhales through the mouthpiece, an airflow through the blister is generated to entrain the dose contained therein and carry it out of the blister and via the mouthpiece into the user's airway. | 06-09-2011 |

| 20120245433 | Thoracic Access Port Including Foldable Anchor - A surgical access device includes a body having a first member and a second member relatively movable between open and closed configurations. Each member is positionable within an opening in tissue to provide access to an interior space of a patient. Each member includes a top surface, a bottom surface, a leading end, and a trailing end. The top surfaces are positioned in close cooperative alignment when the first and second members are in the closed configuration. The trailing ends are positioned in close cooperative alignment when the first and second members are in the open configuration. In the open position, the first and second members define a passage therethrough to permit access to the interior space for passage of a surgical instrument therethrough. | 09-27-2012 |

| 20090164345 | System and method for management and control of containerized freight - A system and method for managing containerized freight is disclosed. The system generates a 3-D view of a containerized freight terminal that is rendered on a display. The 3-D view includes rendered scale models of all the containers, vessels, buildings and equipment within the freight yard and according to stored information relating to such. The rendered 3-D view is updated as changes are made to the stored information and according to user input related to the desired point of view and perspective. The rendered scale models may be selectively visually coded or displayed according to pre-determined criteria. | 06-25-2009 |
