Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090194136DEVICE FOR CLEANING CONTAINERS - A hollow ware scrubber comprised of an elongated tube of material having weighted balls or objects, the tube sealed on its' ends. The scrubber can be easily passed through the narrow opening of jars, bottles, wine decanters, vases, or other hollow ware. When the scrubber is inside of hollow ware, and the hollow ware is shaken or agitated, the scrubber comes into contact with the inside surfaces of the hollow ware and cleaning or polishing of the surfaces occurs. The scrubber may also be furnished with a cleaning solution inside the tube or infused in the tube. When scrubber is inserted into an object to be cleaned, cleaning solution is released from the scrubber and facilitates cleaning. A scrubber can be made in decorative shapes and various thicknesses and lengths, as long as the scrubber is conformable and adapts to the inside of the object to be cleaned.08-06-2009

20100114287IMPLANTABLE TISSUE MARKER ELECTRODE - The present application discloses a tissue marker that may be permanently applied to cardiac (or other) tissue by means such as, but not limited to, a minimally-invasive procedure to allow for pre- and post-op lesion site testing, with the marker also preferably being radiopaque to facilitate post-op imaging. More specifically, the marker may preferably comprise or include an electrode as part of an integrated assembly. The marker may be mounted on the tissue with a suitable tissue retention member for securing the marker in place. The disclosed examples include one or more tissue retention members, and in an exemplary embodiment comprises a pair of clips for securing the assembly to a target tissue. Each retention member or clip has a conductive lead with an electrically conductive surface in the form of a patch associated therewith. Each clip is preferably associated with a discrete electrically conductive area on the surface of the patch so that the assembly may function as a bi-polar electrode, with a voltage applied between the discrete conductive areas.05-06-2010

20090303013SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR WIRELESS CONTROL OF EQUIPMENT - Systems and methods for wirelessly controlling equipment or apparatus by employing radio frequency identification (RFID) technology. The systems and methods provide the capability to manually or automatically select an RFID tag or change the encoded information in an RFID tag to wirelessly change the control state of a piece of equipment or an apparatus. The system includes an RFID based selector including at least one RFID tag, and an RFID reader capable of wirelessly reading RFID codes from the RFID tags of the RFID based selector. The system further includes a control mechanism capable of changing a control state of said equipment or apparatus in response to said read RFID codes. To expand the system capabilities yet keep power requirements at the selector to a minimum, methods are included of passive addressing of many pushbuttons in the selector. Wireless and battery free selectors are explained. Utilizing the inherent ID code of the tag permits management of which selectors are virtually connected.12-10-2009

20120090051PLANTS CONTAINING A HETEROLOGOUS FLAVOHEMOGLOBIN GENE AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF - Plant nitrogen use efficiency in corn has been improved by transformation with a flavohemoglobin gene. Plants comprising a flavohemoglobin gene have decreased nitric oxide (NO) levels, increased biomass accumulation under a sufficient nitrogen growth condition, and increased chlorophyll content under a limiting nitrogen growth condition. Additionally, these transformed plants evidence higher levels of yield.04-12-2012
