In an embodiment, an intellectual property selection system receives from an innovator an innovation submission describing an innovation. An intellectual property protection system receives at least a portion of the innovation submission and manages obtaining an intellectual property legal right related to the innovation. An intellectual property asset management system receives and stores at least one of an innovation description and an intellectual property legal right description, where the innovation description is based at least in part on the at least a portion of the innovation submission and the intellectual property legal right description is based at least in part on the intellectual property legal right.04-08-2010
20100088244System and Method for Developing and Implementing Intellectual Property Marketing - The present invention relates to methods for the development and implementation of intellectual property marketing. A targeted innovation to fulfill an internal need is developed. Actions are taken to legally protect the targeted innovation as an intellectual property asset. The intellectual property asset is analyzed to determine a marketing assessment. A decision is made whether to market the intellectual property asset based at least in part on the marketing assessment. If the marketing assessment meets a predetermined threshold, the intellectual property asset is marketed.04-08-2010

20090095835Zero-backlash baitcast fishing reel with non-contact backlash sensing - A fishing reel that employs a non-contact line sensor to capture images of the backlash zone of a baitcast fishing reel, together with image analysis and feedback to a direct contact spool brake, with the result of gradual to near-instantaneously halting spool rotation, thereby decreasing or preventing backlash under all fishing conditions while maximizing cast distance.04-16-2009
20110120629MEDICAL BALLOON - A non-compliant medical balloon, where the non-compliant medical balloon may be changed from a deflated state to an inflated state by increasing pressure within the balloon, is made with a first fiber layer, a second fiber layer over said first fiber layer such that the fibers of the first fiber layer and the fibers of the second fiber layer form an angle and a binding layer coating the first fiber layer and said second fiber layer. The interior surface area of the non-compliant medical balloon remains unchanged when the balloon changes from a deflated state to an inflated state05-26-2011

20090030088Therapeutic benefits of gossypol, 6-methoxy gossypol, and 6,6'-dimothxy gossypol - 6-methoxy gossypol and 6,6′-dimethoxy gossypol were isolated from cottonseeds. Bioactivities of these two gossypol derivatives and gossypol were investigated regarding their antioxidant activities, DNA damage prevention ability, anti-cancer, and anti-trypanosomal activities. Both methoxy compounds had nearly equivalent bioactivities, but gossypol showed greater bioactivities than either methoxy derivative on free radical scavenging activity, reducing power, and DNA damage prevention ability. Gossypol and its methoxy derivatives inhibited growth of three cancer cell lines, i.e., SiHa (cervical cancer), MCF-7 (breast cancer) and Caco-2 (colon cancer) cells, in a dose dependent manner. These three compounds also significantly inhibited growth of trypanosome 01-29-2009
