20100304236CATALYSTS AND METHODS INCLUDING STEAM REFORMING - The present invention generally relates to catalyst compositions comprising aluminates, such as nickel aluminates, and related methods. In some embodiments, the catalyst composition may be advantageously modified, for example, by the addition of one or more metal additives to further enhance catalyst performance. Such modifications can provide a more effective catalyst and can reduce the level of coking during catalytic processes. Some embodiments of the invention may provide effective catalyst compositions for steam reforming. In some cases, the catalyst composition may be utilized under relatively mild reaction conditions.12-02-2010

20100240117THREE DIMENSIONAL FABRICATION OF BIOCOMPATIBLE STRUCTURES IN ANATOMICAL SHAPES AND DIMENSIONS FOR TISSUE ENGINEERING AND ORGAN REPLACEMENT - Methods and apparatuses involving biocompatible structures for tissue engineering and organ replacement and, more specifically, biocompatible structures formed by three-dimensional fabrication, are described. In some embodiments, the biocompatible structures are scaffolds for cells that can be used as tissue engineering templates and/or as artificial organs. The structures may be three-dimensional and can mimic the shapes and dimensions of tissues and/or organs, including the microarchitecture and porosities of the tissues and organs. Pores in the structure may allow delivery of molecules across the structure, and may facilitate cell migration and/or generation of connective tissue between the structure and its host environment. Structures of the invention can be implanted into a mammal and/or may be used ex vivo as bioartificial assist devices.09-23-2010

20100059391METHOD FOR DETECTING BIOMOLECULES AND USE THEREOF - Biomolecule-specific probe is immobilized on an electrode surface to form a modified electrode. The modified electrode is exposed to target biomolecule. The biomolecule is captured by the probe whereby a first complex with the biomolecule is formed. Subsequently, the biomolecule is exposed to electroactive label having binding affinity to the biomolecule. The biomolecule adsorbs the electroactive label to the modified electrode to form a working electrode whereby a second complex comprising the first complex with the biomolecule and the bound electroactive label is formed. The working electrode is placed in an electrolyte medium and electrochemical measurement between the working electrode and a reference electrode is taken wherein the electrochemical measurement comprises the measurement of electrical signal resulting from a solid-state electrochemical process involving the electroactive labels. The magnitude of the electrochemical measurement corresponds to the concentration of the biomolecule present in the sample.03-11-2010
