20100136026Ship Inhibition to Direct Hematopoietic Stem Cells and Induce Extramedullary Hematopoiesis - The present invention concerns inhibition of SHIP expression and/or function in mammalian subjects to direct HSC from the bone marrow to other sites in the body (such as the spleen and/or liver), where they then re-establish blood cell production. The method of the invention can be employed, for example, to rescue or enhance blood cell recovery during bone marrow impairment due to bone-seeking radioisotope exposure, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, infection, or genetic or congenital defects. Preferably, inhibition of SHIP expression and/or function is achieved by administering an effective amount of one or more SHIP inhibitors to the subject. In one embodiment, the subject is suffering from, or at risk of developing, bone marrow failure (such as an aplastic bone marrow failure syndrome). In another embodiment, the subject is suffering from, or at risk of, exposure to a bone-seeking radioisotope. In another embodiment, the subject is suffering from, or at risk of developing, fibrotic or damaged bone marrow due to chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy for cancer.06-03-2010

20080316478METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SPECTROMETER NOISE REDUCTION - Methods and apparatus for enhancing reference spectra are presented. Movement of a reference material relative to a spectrometer optical path is used to enhance reference spectra precision. Alternatively, changing an optically sampled area and/or volume of a reference material during collection of a reference spectrum is used to enhance reference spectra precision. Two separate cases are treated, where the observed variation removed is dependent upon hardware configuration of an analyzer and position of the analyzer relative to the reference. The first case is reduction or removal of radiance variation. The second case is reduction or removal of spectral variation due to observed diffraction. Enhanced reference spectra precision results in enhanced precision and/or accuracy of associated analyte property determinations.12-25-2008
