20100093261FLUID JET ASSEMBLY - A fluid jet assembly includes a non-pressurized lance barrel through which a high pressure hose (“a lance hose”) is threaded and anchored at the distal end of the lance barrel relative to an operator's position. The other end of the lance hose is coupled to a high pressure fluid source. The fluid is fed into the lance hose and transported to the output of the lance barrel, where it is discharged as a fluid jet stream. A nozzle is mounted at the output of the lance barrel to control the characteristics of the fluid jet flowing out of the lance hose. When infused with an abrasive material, the fluid jet stream exits the nozzle in a focused jet capable of cutting through most structural surfaces.04-15-2010
20100093262FLUID JET MANIFOLD - A fluid jet system providing a hydraulic induction manifold for at least two valves. The manifold is positioned “upstream” of an abrasives holding tank, so that no abrasive material flows through the valves and the manifold. The valves and the manifold provide pressurized fluid for at least two different flows: (1) a primary fluid flow and (2) an abrasive material flow through the abrasives holding tank. The two flows are merged again at a junction to provide a fluid flow having a predetermined abrasive-to-fluid mixture ratio. The manifold balances the pressure of the two different flows using a preset geometric relationship between the two different output flow paths associated with the valves.04-15-2010

20080311391Bio-Compatible Hybrid Organic/Inorganic Gels: Vapor Phase Synthesis - The disclosure provides a simple and effective way of synthesizing robust organic-inorganic hybrid gels and ultra-thin films using vaporization of a gel precursor. The gels are synthesized at relatively low temperature allowing the activity of the immobilized species to be maintained. The disclosure provides robust, synthetic, selective, active and/or passive transport systems in the form of functional biologically active species and mechanisms for forming them. These systems allow selective and passive or active transport of ionic, molecular and biological species through the incorporation of functional biological molecules and biomolecular assemblies in a rigid matrix.12-18-2008
20080312073Self Supporting Structurally Engineered Non-Platinum Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction in Fuel Cells - A highly dispersed, unsupported, electrocatalyst made of pyrolyzed porphyries and a method for synthesizing the same. The disclosed synthesis procedure allows for optimization of pore size and therefore transport properties. Compounds suitable for use include transition metal N12-18-2008
20090069175Nanostructured anode PT-RU electrocatalysts for direct methanol fuel cells - An aerosol-assisted method for synthesis of nanostructured metallic electrocatalysts and the electrocatalysts formed thereby. The electrocatalyst may be formed from metals such as, but not limited to, platinum, platinum group metals, and binary and tertiary compositions thereof such as, for example, platinum-ruthenium and platinum-tin. The resulting unsupported electrocatalyst is homogenous and highly disperse.03-12-2009
20090242429Electrochemical Biosensor - A simple, fast, selective and highly sensitive electrochemical method assay and disposable device for detection of viruses, bacteria, proteins, DNA, and/or organic/inorganic compounds. The sensor has a multi-layered construction, with each successive layer performing a different function. The design further allows for the packing of numerous microscopic electrode transducers onto the small footprint of a biochip device, allowing for a high-density array of sensors.10-01-2009
20090288960Rapid Detection of Anti-Chromatin Autoantibodies in Human Serum using a Portable Electrochemical Biosensor - A rapid electrochemical flow-through sensor and method for detecting the presence of autoantibodies in a fluid sample such as blood is shown and described. The sensor may take either a single- or multi-plexed form. The sensor comprises a fluid inlet, a reaction region comprising immobilized autoantigens and an electrode assembly, and a fluid outlet.11-26-2009

20110020541Methods of Making Assay Devices Utilizing Hollow Particles - Hollow particles for use in various types of assay devices are provided. Due to their hollow or voided structure, the particles may exhibit a variety of beneficial properties. For instance, hollow particles are generally lightweight, and thus, relatively inexpensive in comparison to other types of particles. Hollow particles may also form a stable system without requiring refrigeration or rotation. In addition, hollow particles may possess enhanced light diffraction capabilities, which may be particularly beneficial in certain types of assay devices, e.g., diffraction-based assay devices.01-27-2011
