20090119837 | Changing Table Guard for Infant - Disclosed is a safety guard that can be easily and temporarily installed upon an existing infant changing table. The guard generally includes a number of lateral supports that can be positioned over the width of the changing table. The distal ends of these supports each include a hinge that permits it to be hooked over the edge of the changing table. The opposite ends of the supports are secured to a netting. With the distal ends secured about the edge of the table, the netting is positioned adjacent the opposite edge at a 90° angle to the table surface. In this position, the guard effectively prevents an infant falling off the side of the table. | 05-14-2009 |

20130175235 | PHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCT WITH CLOSURE ASSEMBLY - A system includes a container and an adapter. The container may include a wall defining a receptacle and a neck, the neck forming an opening and a passage in fluid communication between the receptacle and the opening; a closure assembly having a portion disposed within the neck, and including an insert defining a valve seat, an actuator, a valve member attached to the actuator and sealingly engageable with the valve seat, and a biasing member disposed between the insert and the actuator. The biasing member urges the valve member into sealing engagement with the valve seat in an actuator advanced state, and the valve member disengages from the valve seat in an actuator retracted state, the actuator depending through the opening in the advanced state. The adapter may be removably attached to the container, and configured to move the actuator from advanced to retracted state upon attachment. | 07-11-2013 |

20140053949 | Ice machine - An ice bagger is provided. The ice bagger includes an ice hopper into which ice is disposed from an ice manufacturer. The ice hopper further includes an ice agitator and defines an ice trough there beneath. An ice auger, housed inside the ice trough, transports ice to an ice delivery chute. A hatch is positioned beneath the ice delivery chute, upon which the bag rests while filling. A scale is positioned on the hatch. The scale weighs the ice being deposited into the bag. When the bag is full, the bag is sealed by a sealer. When the bag is sealed, the hatch opens and the bag of ice is deposited in an bag depository. This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims. | 02-27-2014 |

20090096895 | MULTI-SPECTRAL IMAGING - Multi-spectral imaging technique embodiments are presented which involve an active imaging approach that uses wide band illumination of known spectral distributions to obtain multi-spectral reflectance information in the presence of unknown ambient illumination. In general, a reflectance spectral distribution of a captured scene is computed by selecting a number of different illumination spectra and capturing multiple images of the scene. Each of these images is captured when the scene is illuminated by a different one of the selected illumination spectra in addition to the ambient light. The reflectance spectral distribution of the scene is computed for each pixel location based on the relative response between pairs of the radiometric responses of the corresponding pixels in the captured images, given a set of parameters including the added illumination spectra used to capture each of the images and the response function and spectral sensitivity of the camera used to capture the images | 04-16-2009 |
20110242334 | Time Interleaved Exposures And Multiplexed Illumination - Samples of a scene are acquired in synchronization with finely interleaved varying conditions such as lighting, aperture, focal length, and so forth. A time-varying sample at each pixel for each condition is reconstructed. Time multiplexed interleaving allows for real-time, live applications, while handling motion blur naturally. Effects such as real-time video relighting of a scene is possible. Time interleaved exposures also allow segmentation of a scene, and allows for constrained special effects such as triangulation matting using a multi-color interleaved chroma key. | 10-06-2011 |
20110267619 | CAPTURING REFLECTED LIGHT FROM A SAMPLING SURFACE - A mechanism is disclosed for capturing reflected rays from a surface. A first and second lens aligned along a same optical center axis are configured so that a beam of light collimated parallel to the lens center axis directed to a first side, is converged toward the lens center axis on a second side. A first light beam source between the first and second lenses directs a light beam toward the first lens parallel to the optical center axis. Second light beam source(s) on the second side of the first lens, direct a light beam toward a focal plane of the first lens at a desired angle. An image capturing component, at the second side of the second lens, has an image capture surface directed toward the second lens to capture images of the light reflected from a sample capture surface at the focal plane of the first lens. | 11-03-2011 |

20100015615 | Identification and Isolation of Adult Stem Cells and Related Methods of Use - Inhibitor of DNA Binding-1 (Id-1) is a marker protein found in stem cells, including adult stem cells, which can be used an indicator of the “stem-ness” of the cells. This allows Id1 expression to be used in a method for identifying cells as potential stem cells involving the step of screening the cells for expression of Id1; and a method for isolating cells as potential stem cells comprising the step of separating cells that express Id1 from cells that do not. Expression of GFAP can be used as a secondary screen to isolate rare B1 type adult neuronal stem cells. | 01-21-2010 |
20130072844 | USE OF ENTRAINED NEUTROPHILS TO TREAT METASTATIC AND MICROMETASTATIC DISEASE IN AT RISK PATIENTS - The present invention relates generally to compositions and methods for treating cancer patients with a poor prognosis, and to therapeutic modalities for improving prognosis by combating metastasis and abrogating chemoresistance in cancer cells. In particular, the invention relates to the role of white blood cells, i.e. neutrophils and neutrophil-like cells, in preventing the spread of cancer from a primary tumor to secondary locations in the body. The invention provides methods for reducing or delaying the spread of metastatic cancer cells in a patient at risk for metastatic tumor development, at risk for metastatic relapse, i.e. prophylactic methods, and treating patients suffering from metastatic tumors. | 03-21-2013 |
