Balaban

Alexandru T. Balaban, Galveston, TX US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090137045Pyridinium Cationic Lipids as Gene Transfer Agents - Pyridinium cationic lipids useful as non-viral gene delivery agents are disclosed. The agents are prepared by reaction of pyrylium salts with primary amines. Also disclosed are methods of trasfectind cells using the pyridinium cationic lipids as gene transfer agents.05-28-2009

Carey Balaban, Pittsburgh, PA US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100100510DYNAMIC DISCRETE DECISION SIMULATION SYSTEM - A system that enables dynamic discrete decision simulation is provided. Simulation has many advantages in modeling complex systems to facilitate decision making. The innovation discloses a system that integrates an agent-based discrete event simulator, a geographic information system, a rule base, and interactive databases in addition to interfaces and other supporting components. The modules can seamlessly communicate with each other by exchanging a progression of data, and by making a series of deductive decisions through embedded algorithms. The integrated system can be applied to disaster management planning and training.04-22-2010

Dahlia Balaban, Toronto CA

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110144516RELATIVE CONTRIBUTION OF THORACIC MUSCLES TO BREATHING - A method and apparatus for evaluating the relative contribution of the diaphragm versus other thoracic muscles to breathing by obtaining measurements of parameters that correlate with changes in thoracic cavity and intra-abdominal cavity pressures over identical time increments and organizing the measurement data in manner that reveals whether the pressures changes are characteristic of the pattern of contemporaneous pressure changes in those cavities that accompany contraction and/or relaxation of the diaphragm muscles or whether the pressure changes are characteristic of the pattern of contemporaneous pressure changes in those cavities that accompany contraction and/or relaxation of the intercostal muscles.06-16-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110112287CARBON NANOPARTICLES, WHICH ARE COVALENTLY BOUND VIA A BRIDGE MOLECULE TO A TARGET MOLECULE, AND A METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION THEREOF - A method for covalently binding target molecules to carbon nanoparticles via at least one bridge molecule includes converting carbon nanoparticles to acyl carbon nanoparticles using a carbonyl compound of the at least one bridge molecule in the presence of a Lewis acid under Friedel-Crafts conditionsm, where the acyl carbon nanoparticles include a nucleofuge in the omega position. The target molecule is covalently bound to the acyl carbon nanoparticles via nucleophilic substitution of the nucleofuge in the omega position.05-12-2011
