20090104253 | Hemostatic biocidal dressing - A hemostatic biocidal dressing includes pro-coagulant and biocidal agents providing a physical barrier to bleeding as well as chemical action to promote blood coagulation and thereby arrest coverage. At the same time, biocidal properties of the dressing prevent the introduction of infected agents and the establishment of infection within wounded tissue. A silverized textile provides biocidal action while a granulated hemostatic agent disposed within interstitial regions between polymer fibers provides coagulating action. | 04-23-2009 |
20090131979 | Wound closure method apparatus and system - Disclosed is a wound closure device, such as a suture, including a substantially flexible tensile member, the tensile member having an external surface, the external surface including a biocidal material such as a coating of substantially pure silver. A method of applying the suture includes piercing a patient's skin adjacent to a wound using, for example, a needle and drawing a substantially flexible tensile member through a resulting aperture in the skin. By virtue of the biocidal material, pathogens and other bioactive materials drawn through the aperture are rendered less active and/or incapable of causing infection. | 05-21-2009 |

20130154887 | ANTENNA TESTING ENCLOSURES AND METHODS FOR TESTING ANTENNA SYSTEMS THEREWITH - Antenna enclosure apparatus are provided that may be used to verify the signal path integrity, amplitude and/or phase of a single antenna or multiple antennas of direction finding (DF) antenna array and associated electronics without interference of external signals such as ground interference signals present when an aircraft-based antenna is tested on the ground. An individual antenna test enclosure may in one embodiment be provided as an antenna hood having a cavity dimensioned for internally receiving an antenna, such as an aircraft external blade antenna. The cavity of the antenna enclosure may be lined with a RF absorbing material inside the enclosure to allow for RF path testing with substantially no “ringing”, so that accurate phase and gain testing of a received antenna and its RF signal path may be accomplished. | 06-20-2013 |
