| 20110232373 | CHROMATOGRAPHIC SEPARATION DEVICE WITH VARIABLE LENGTH AND A METHOD FOR ITS USE - The present invention enables the automatic change of the number of segments involved in a coupled chromatographic column system, without the need to physically detach and attach the individual segments. The present invention further relates to a method for performing method development in chromatography and for selecting the optimal separation conditions to perform a chromatographic separation using the system of the present invention. | 09-29-2011 |

| 20110313784 | HEALTHCARE INFORMATION COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A healthcare information communication system is configured to send automated messages to patients of a medical practice based, at least in part, on data stored on a practice management system. Integration between components of the healthcare information communication system and the practice management system including a health information management system and a billing management system facilitate patient visits to a medical practice by reducing the burden on medical practice personnel to collect all information from patients during visits to the medical practice. Automated messaging and reminder of appointments based on information stored in the practice management system reduce the amount of revenue lost by a medical practice due to last minute cancellations, no-shows at the medical practice, and uncollected outstanding bills. | 12-22-2011 |

| 20110055985 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR AN ATOMIC FORCE MICROSCOPE FOR THE STUDY AND MODIFICATION OF SURFACE PROPERTIES - The invention relates to a device for an atomic force microscope (AFM) for the study and/or modification of surface properties. The device comprises a cantilever (flexible bar) having an integrated, piezoresistive sensor, an integrated bimorphic actuator, and a measuring tip. The measuring tip carries at least two metal electrodes, which can be activated via electrical terminals. The measuring tip and/or the cantilever have at least one nanoscopic hole through which synchrotron radiation or laser light is directed onto the material surface to be studied. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for the study and modification of surface properties and surface-proximal properties, which can be executed using such a device. To this end, atomic force microscopy (AFM), surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), photo emission spectroscopy (XPS, XAS), and material modification by local exposure are executed in sequence or simultaneously using the same device. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20110217655 | LITHOGRAPHIC DRY DEVELOPMENT USING OPTICAL ABSORPTION - A novel approach to dry development of exposed photo resist is described in which a photo resist layer is exposed to a visible light source in order to remove the resist in the areas of exposure. The class of compounds used as the resist material, under the influence of the light source, undergoes a chemical/structural change such that the modified material becomes volatile and is thus removed from the resist surface. The exposure process is carried out for a time sufficient to ablate the exposed resist layer down to the layer below. A group of compounds found to be useful in this process includes aromatic calixarenes. | 09-08-2011 |

| 20100003287 | Compositions and Methods Relating to Treatment of Cancer and Infectious Diseases - The present invention provides methods for modulating an immune response by administering a composition comprising a Toll-like receptor agonist and an immune mediator which downregufates the expression of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 and upregulates the expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-12. The methods can be used to provide therapeutic treatment for cancerous conditions and infectious diseases. | 01-07-2010 |
