| 20110056489 | RESPIRATORY TREATMENT DELIVERY SYSTEM - Embodiments relate to systems and methods for delivery of oxygen or other treatment gases to a patient without requiring physical contact or enclosure of the patient. Embodiments can include a delivery hood, sensing components, and a gas distribution system including one or more gas delivery ports. Gas delivery ports may be individually controlled based on input from the sensing components to alter the volume and orientation of treatment gas flow directed at a patient. Sensing components can include cameras or other sensors that detect the position of a patient's head, and gas delivery ports may then be controlled to direct treatment gas flow in the direction of the patient's head. Embodiments and methods described thereby allow for efficient oxygen or other gas delivery to a patient without requiring contact or enclosure of the patient. | 03-10-2011 |

| 20120118740 | METHODS AND DEVICES FOR SORTING CELLS AND OTHER BIOLOGICAL PARTICULATES - An optical pattern-driven light induced dielectrophoresis (DEP) apparatus and separation methods are described which provide for the manipulation of particles or cells and selection based on traits correlated with the DEP response. Embodiments of the apparatus use DEP electric field patterns in combination with microfluidic laminar flows to measure response, separate, segregate and extract particles from heterogeneous mixtures according to the relative response of the particles to one or more DEP fields without damaging living cells. The methods are particularly suited for selecting and extracting the best sperm and embryo candidates based on fitness for use with existing artificial reproduction procedures and excluding defective or non-viable gametes. | 05-17-2012 |

| 20080299593 | Luminogenic and fluorogenic compounds and methods to detect molecules or conditions - A method to detect the presence or amount of at least one molecule in a sample which employs a derivative of luciferin or a derivative of a fluorophore is provided. Compounds and compositions for carrying out the methods of the invention are also provided. | 12-04-2008 |

| 20100195254 | OVERCURRENT AND BROWN OUT PROTECTION APPARATUS - A discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) converter is provided. The converter comprises a transformer having a primary and a secondary side, an RCD network, a rectifier, a switch, and a controller. The transformer has primary side with a first primary winding and a second primary winding and has a secondary side with a secondary winding. The RCD network is coupled to the first primary winding and is adapted to receive energy from the leakage inductance of the first primary winding. The rectifier is coupled to the second primary winding. The switch is coupled between the RCD network and ground. The controller receives indicia of a rectified voltage from the rectifier, indicia of current from the switch, indicia of transformer magnetization and controls the actuation of the switch. Preferably, the controller provides an actuation signal to the switch with actuation periods that are separated from one another by an interval that allows energy within the transformer to substantially dissipate. Average output current of this converter is generally limited from the peak switch current level that is allowed by the controller and a switching frequency that the controller allows the converter to operate. | 08-05-2010 |

| 20090063706 | Combined Layer 2 Virtual MAC Address with Layer 3 IP Address Routing - Inbound packets received by a physical network adapter of a processing device are routed by evaluating an inbound frame to determine if an inbound frame destination MAC address is associated with the processing device and determining whether the inbound frame should be routed to a corresponding logical interface or to drop the inbound frame if the inbound frame destination MAC address is equal to a virtual MAC address supported by the processing device. If it is determined that the inbound frame should be routed to the corresponding logical interface, then any necessary layer 3 functions are performed and the inbound frame is routed to the corresponding logical interface, thereby combining both layer 2 and layer 3 routing into a single logical function. | 03-05-2009 |
