20090179400 | ROTATIONAL BREAKAWAY TRAILER JACK ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF USE - A rotational jack assembly is provided to support a portion of a trailer. The jack assembly has a pivot mount with a pivot axis, a mounting plate rotatable about the pivot axis and a pin receptor with a first and second portion. The mounting plate carries a support assembly and a locking pin. The locking pin is engagable with the pin receptor, and adapted to move between the first and second portions of the pin receptor upon application of rotational force. A force activated locking assembly and a breakaway support assembly are also provided for supporting a portion of a trailer. A method of use for the rotational breakaway trailer jack assembly is also disclosed. | 07-16-2009 |

20100284965 | COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR ADOPTIVE AND ACTIVE IMMUNOTHERAPY - Modular aAPCs and methods of their manufacture and use are provided. The modular aAPCs are constructed from polymeric microparticles. The aAPCs include encapsulated cytokines and coupling agents which modularly couple functional elements including T cell receptor activators, co-stimulatory molecules and adhesion molecules to the particle. The ability of these aAPCs to release cytokines in a controlled manner, coupled with their modular nature and ease of ligand attachment, results in an ideal, tunable APC capable of stimulating and expanding primary T cells. | 11-11-2010 |

20140179544 | COMPOSITIONS, SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DROPLET FORMATION, SPACING AND DETECTION - The present disclosure provides assays and devices for forming, spacing, and/or detecting droplets. The droplets may be emulsions composed of two or more immiscible fluids. An emulsion can be a double emulsion, such as water-in-oil droplets that are present in a continuous aqueous phase. The double emulsion can be formed when the water-in-oil droplets are contacted with one or more streams of aqueous fluid(s). This disclosure also provides a variety of additives that can be added to the fluids. | 06-26-2014 |

20140134623 | STABILIZED DROPLETS FOR CALIBRATION AND TESTING - Provided herein, are droplet mixture compositions and systems and methods for forming mixtures of droplets. The system may comprise two or more droplet generation units. Each unit may include at least one first input well, a second input well, and an output well connected to the first and second input wells by channels that form a droplet generator. The combined droplet populations can be mixed, heated, and collected for multiple uses, such as for use as calibration standards for instrument testing and analysis. | 05-15-2014 |
20140170665 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR STABILIZING DROPLETS - This disclosure provides systems, devices, and methods for sample preparation and/or analysis comprising a droplet generator having a first channel in fluid communication with a carrier fluid reservoir and a second channel in fluid communication with a sample reservoir. The first channel and second channel may meet at an intersection that receives a sample from the sample reservoir and a carrier fluid from the carrier fluid reservoir and generates one or more droplets that flow along a droplet channel to a droplet reservoir. An energy application member in thermal communication with the intersection, at least a portion of the droplet channel, the sample reservoir and/or the carrier fluid reservoir may provide energy to an individual droplet of the one or more droplets, such as at the intersection and/or as the droplet moves along the droplet channel to the droplet reservoir. | 06-19-2014 |

20120152369 | SYSTEM FOR FORMING EMULSIONS - System, including methods, apparatus, and kits, for forming emulsions. The system may include an instrument and a microfluidic chip received by the instrument. The instrument may apply pressure to prospective emulsion phases held by the chip, to drive formation and collection of emulsions in the chip. In some embodiments, the instrument may stop applying pressure to the chip when a change in pressure meeting a predefined condition is detected by the instrument. The change may indicate that an endpoint of droplet generation has been reached. | 06-21-2012 |
