20100255573 | EXTRACTION AND PURIFICATION OF BIOLOGIGAL CELLS USING ULTRASOUND - A process is described in which biological cells are separated from a material sample, such as blood or soil, in which the material sample is formed as a suspension in a fluid and introduced into a chamber. One or more acoustic pressure nodes aggregate the material sample, and a flow of fluid removes soluble matter from the aggregate leaving the biological cells and other inert materials at the node(s). In one aspect of the invention the biological materials are separated from inhibitors that might render their subsequent analysis in, for example, a PCR system difficult. In another aspect of the invention a method is described to extract a clean DNA sample for such biological cells. | 10-07-2010 |

20100062544 | Saturation Assay - The invention provides a modified form of saturation assay, which is based on the measurement of a free or unbound labelled reagent fraction (such that there is an increase in signal in the presence of analyte) and employs trapping zones to concentrate said unbound or free labelled fraction to avoid loss of sensitivity. Preferably, the assay is a membrane assay. | 03-11-2010 |

20080248504 | Agglutination Assay - The invention relates to agglutination assays and related kits, reagents and devices. In particular methods of assaying small analytes having few epitopes are disclosed, by means of using hub moieties to which multiple analytes may be bound by a first epitope, together with a further moiety capable of binding a second analyte epitope and which is also capable of binding to a detectable particle. Stable agglutinated complexes may be so formed, which may used as the basis for various assay formats. | 10-09-2008 |

20150075646 | SECURITY DEVICE - A security device is configured to limit access and prevent removal of a backflow preventer connected to a fire hydrant. The security device includes an upper enclosure rotationally and detachably coupled to a lower enclosure. The upper enclosure has an upper enclosure left end and the lower enclosure comprises a lower enclosure left end each being configured to accommodate a portion of the fire hydrant. An upper access door is attached to the upper enclosure and permits and restricts access to the backflow preventer. A side door is attached to the lower enclosure and permits and restricts access to the backflow preventer to install a hose to the backflow preventer. A plurality of height adjustment legs are attached to the lower enclosure to adjust a height of the lower enclosure from ground and to carry weight of the security device which avoids plastic deformation of the backflow preventer. | 03-19-2015 |

20150098666 | RESEALABLE BAG WITH CUTTING MECHANISM - A combination sealing and cutting assembly for a bag comprises a first sealing strip and a second sealing strip. The first sealing strip and second sealing strip are connected at their corresponding ends. A slider block is movable along the first sealing strip and the second sealing strip. Movement of the slider block in a first direction brings the first sealing strip and the second sealing strip into sealing engagement with one another while movement of the slider block in a second direction releases the first sealing strip and the second sealing from said sealing engagement. A cutting mechanism is mounted on the slider block and moves with the slider block along the first sealing strip and the second sealing strip. | 04-09-2015 |
20150101284 | BAG CLAMP WITH A RECIPROCATING BLADE - An improved bag clamp comprises a first jaw member and a second jaw member. The first jaw member has an opening in a clamping surface thereof and there is a blade reciprocatingly movable along the second jaw member. A hinge couples the first jaw member and the second jaw member. The clamp is moveable between an open configuration in which the first jaw member and second jaw member are angularly spaced and a closed configuration in which the blade is received by the opening in the first jaw member and the blade is moveable along the second jaw member. | 04-16-2015 |

20080220056 | Treatment for liver disease - The present invention is based on the finding that the artificial induction of hepatic stellate cell (HSC) apoptosis in vivo can promote the resolution of liver fibrosis. Thus, the present invention provides methods for treating liver disease in a subject involving administration of an inducer of apoptosis which is capable of selectively inducing hepatic stellate cell apoptosis in the liver of the subject or of an agent which is capable of giving rise to such an inducer in the subject. In addition, the invention provides methods for treating liver fibrosis in a subject comprising the selective delivery of an inducer of apoptosis specifically to the hepatic stellate cells of the subject or of an agent which is capable of giving rise to an inducer of hepatic stellate cell apoptosis. | 09-11-2008 |

20090125866 | METHOD FOR PERFORMING PATTERN DECOMPOSITION FOR A FULL CHIP DESIGN - A method for decomposing a target pattern containing features to be printed on a wafer into multiple patterns. The method includes the steps of segmenting the target pattern into a plurality of patches; identifying critical features within each patch which violate minimum spacing requirements; generating a critical group graph for each of the plurality of patches having critical features, where the critical group graph of a given patch defines a coloring scheme of the critical features within the given patch, and the critical group graph identifies critical features extending into adjacent patches to the given patch; generating a global critical group graph for the target pattern, where the global critical group graph includes the critical group graphs of each of the plurality of patches, and an identification of the features extending into adjacent patches; and coloring the target pattern based on the coloring scheme defined by the global critical group graph. | 05-14-2009 |
20090172630 | AUTOMATED PROCESSOR GENERATION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DESIGNING A CONFIGURABLE PROCESSOR - A system for generating processor hardware supports a language for significant extensions to the processor instruction set, where the designer specifies only the semantics of the new instructions and the system generates other logic. The extension language provides for the addition of processor state, including register files, and instructions that operate on that state. The language also provides for new data types to be added to the compiler to represent the state added. It allows separate specification of reference semantics and instruction implementation, and uses this to automate design verification. In addition, the system generates formatted instruction set documentation from the language specification. | 07-02-2009 |
