20140217245 | REMOTE MANIPULATOR FOR MANIPULATING LIVE MULTIPLE SUB-CONDUCTORS IN A SINGLE PHASE BUNDLE - A manipulator for separating sub-conductors in an energized single phase bundle includes a rigid support member and first and second actuators mounted on the support member, wherein each actuator is independently actuable of the other. Insulators are mounted on each actuator. A selectively releasable coupler is mounted on each insulator for selectively releasable coupling of each insulator to a corresponding sub-conductor.

20100075908 | MIMOTOPE RECEPTORS AND INHIBITORS FOR PLATELET-PLATELET AND PLATELET-ENDOTHELIUM INTERACTIONS - It is provided mimotope receptors and inhibitors that employ peptide mimics that mimic the shape and function of natural receptors and ligands, thus providing synthetic binding sites for ligands and receptors. Receptor mimics can be attached to carriers, such as liposomes, to act as synthetic platelets, for example, by providing multiple binding sites for binding to other (natural or synthetic) platelets or to the endothelium. Synthetic platelets would have virtually limitless shelf life and would not require disease screening prior to transfusion, thereby providing a solution to the perpetual platelet shortages, as well as the safety and storage issues associated with natural blood platelets. | 03-25-2010 |
