Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100241142SUTURE PASSING APPARATUS AND METHOD - An endoscopic surgical instrument for passing a suture through tissue includes a first jaw member, a needle, and a capture feature actuable to grip and retain the suture after the suture has been passed through a tissue body. An actuation mechanism can both move the needle between retracted and extended positions, and move the capture feature between open and closed configurations, via a single actuation. The capture feature may be a trap door which is axially translatable relative to the first jaw member to overlap a portion of the first jaw member and trap a portion of the suture between the trap door and the overlapped portion. The first jaw member may be movable relative to a second jaw member to grasp a tissue body. The instrument can grasp a tissue body, pass the suture through the tissue, capture and retain the suture without being repositioned relative to the tissue.09-23-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100114105SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VERTEBRAL INTERBODY FUSION - A surgical inserter and a fusion cage system which may provide for simplified fusion cage attachment and positioning. The inserter may comprise a collapsible collet with a locking rod. The fusion cage with a rectangular cross-section head may be secured to the inserter through the reverse tapered aperture of the fusion cage. The collet may be inserted into the reverse tapered aperture and the locking rod may control collapse of the collet. The collet may lock the fusion cage to the inserter allowing simplified manipulation of the collet with the inserter. The inserter with the attached fusion cage is inserted into a surgical patient. The fusion cage may be positioned within an intervertebral space. The locking rod may be withdrawn from the collet allowing collapse and withdrawal of the collet from the fusion cage leaving the fusion cage positioned between two vertebrae and the inserter withdrawn from the surgical patient.05-06-2010

20100328207VISUAL CLARITY OF A SUBSTANTIALLY TRANSPARENT TOUCHPAD - The creation of a checkerboard pattern of a plurality of conductive but electrically floating panels of conductive material that are disposed in the space between electrodes on the layers of X and Y electrodes, wherein each panel is separated from adjacent panels by a minimal gap, wherein the panels are aligned such that when viewed from above, the panels appear to form a continuous ITO surface, wherein the panels are not visible to the user from typical user distances, wherein the dis-color effect between etched empty fields and ITO electrodes is thereby eliminated by creating an apparently homogeneous touchpad surface.12-30-2010
20110084920REDUCING LAYERS IN A TOUCHPAD BY MAXIMIZING DISTANCE BETWEEN A GROUND PLANE AND SENSOR ELECTRODES ELECTRODES - A system for reducing the number of layers of a touchpad between sensor electrodes that form a touch sensor, and the all other components of a touchpad, wherein the other components are comprised of a ground plane and sensor circuitry of a capacitance sensitive touchpad, and wherein the number of layers required for all the various components of the touchpad are reduced to thereby lower manufacturing costs of the touchpad.04-14-2011

20090247448Pectate Lyase Variants - The present invention relates to pectate lyase variants exhibiting alterations relative to a parent enzyme exhibiting pectate lyase activity as its major enzymatic activity; to a method of producing such enzymes; and to methods for using such enzymes in the textile, detergent and cellulose fiber processing industries. Compared to the parent enzyme, the pectate lyase variants of the present invention exhibit improved stability in detergents.10-01-2009
20090264300ENZYMATIC ENCODING METHODS FOR EFFICIENT SYNTHESIS OF LARGE LIBRARIES - Disclosed is a method for obtaining a bifunctional complex comprising a molecule linked to a single stranded identifier oligonucleotide, wherein a nascent bifunctional complex comprising a chemical reaction site and a priming site for enzymatic addition of a tag is a) reacted at the chemical reaction site with one or more reactants, and b) reacted enzymatically at the priming site with one or more tag(s) identifying the reactant(s).10-22-2009
20100016177TEMPLATED MOLECULES AND METHODS FOR USING SUCH MOLECULES - The present invention relates to a method for synthesising templated molecules. In one aspect of the invention, the templated molecules are linked to the template which templated the synthesis thereof. The intion allows the generation of libraries which can be screened for e.g. therapeutic activity.01-21-2010
