20140298537 | Crop Resistance to Nematodes - Methods of inhibiting plant parasitic nematodes, methods of obtaining transgenic plants useful for inhibiting such nematodes, and transgenic plants that are resistant to plant parasitic nematodes through inhibition of plant nematode CLE peptide receptor genes are provided. Methods for expressing genes at plant parasitic nematode feeding sites with plant nematode CLE peptide receptor gene promoters are also provided, along with nematode CLE peptide receptor gene promoters that are useful for expressing genes in nematode feeding sites as well as transgenic plants and nematode resistant transgenic plants comprising the promoters. | 10-02-2014 |
20140117586 | MODULAR FABRICATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS - The present invention relates to an article fabrication system having a plurality of material deposition tools containing one or more materials useful in fabricating the article, and a material deposition device having a tool interface for receiving one of the material deposition tools. A system controller is operably connected to the material deposition device to control operation of the material deposition device. Also disclosed is a method of fabricating an article using the system of the invention and a method of fabricating a living three-dimensional structure. | 05-01-2014 |

20090273105 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PERFORMING AN INTERFACIAL REACTION IN A MICROFLUIDIC DEVICE - A microfluidic system for performing interfacial reactions can comprise at least one pump in fluid communication with a tube. A first fluid is injected into the tube so that its flow is laminar and continuous. A second fluid is injected in discrete amounts into the tube into the stream or flow of the first fluid. In other embodiments, discrete amounts of the second fluid are introduced into the channel first, then the first fluid is injected so that it creates a region of substantially laminar fluid flow around the discrete amounts of the second fluid. After the two fluids are in contact, a reaction occurs. The system can be configured so that the second fluid solidifies to form a capsule around the first fluid or vice versa. Other interfacial reactions also can be accomplished using the disclosed microfluidic systems and methods. | 11-05-2009 |
