20080206293Absorbent substrate with a non-leaching antimicrobial activity and a controlled-release bioactive agent. - This invention relates to antimicrobial wound dressings having a non-leaching antimicrobial activity, releasable antimicrobial and antiprotease agents, and a controlled-release bioactive agent such as doxycycline. The Wound dressing material is absorbent and acts as a substrate for antimicrobial and antiprotease agents as well as bioactive agents. More generally, this invention relates to methods and compositions for materials having a non-leaching coating that has antimicrobial properties. The coating is applied to substrates such as gauze-type wound dressings, powders and other substrates. Covalent, non-leaching, non-hydrolyzable bonds are formed between the substrate and the polymer molecules that form the coating. A high concentration of anti-microbial groups on multi-length polymeric molecules and relatively long average chain lengths, contribute to an absorbent or superabsorbent surface with a high level antimicrobial efficacy. Utilization of non-leaching coatings having a plurality of anionic or cationic sites is used according to this invention to bind a plurality of oppositely charged biologically or chemically active compounds, and to release the bound oppositely charged biologically or chemically active compounds from said substrate over a period of time to achieve desired objectives as diverse as improved wound healing to reduction in body odor.08-28-2008

20090134898Coaxial Spring Probe Grounding Method - The present invention provides a spring probe array for use in a semiconductor test fixture wherein the spring probes provide electrical continuity between a device under test and a test system. The array includes a spring probe retaining device with sockets for supporting spring probes. Fixed within the retaining device are a plurality of signal spring probes and a plurality of ground spring probes. A grounding board is fixed internal and captive to the spring probe retaining device and provides a common grounding connection between coaxial spring probes and adjacent non-coaxial spring probes in the spring probe retaining device.05-28-2009
20090302877Reduced Ground Spring Probe Array and Method for Controlling Signal Spring Probe Impedance - A reduced ground spring probe array and a method for controlling the impedance of the signal spring probes in the reduced ground spring probe array. Signal spring probes are positioned in a row-column format across the surface of the spring probe tower. Ground spring probes are positioned in a row/alternating-column format across the surface of the spring probe tower such that one ground probe is positioned between two or more signal probes. In doing so, a void space exists for every other ground probe column such that one or more signal lines may be routed within the void space or the array may be compressed to establish a smaller overall spring probe tower footprint.12-10-2009
