20110154298 | COLLECTING COMPUTER PROCESSOR INSTRUMENTATION DATA - A system and method for collecting instrumentation data in a processor with a pipelined instruction execution stages arranged in an out-of-order execution architecture. One instruction group in a Global Completion Table is marked as a tagged group. Instrumentation data is stored for processing stages processing instructions associated with the tagged group. Sample signal pulses trigger a determination of whether the tagged group is the next-to-complete instruction group. When the sample pulse occurs at a time when the tagged group is the next-to-complete group, the instrumentation data is written as an output. Instrumentation data present during sample pulses that occur when the tagged group is not the next-to-complete group is optionally discarded. Sample pulses are generated at a rate equal to the desired sample rate times the number of groups in the global completion table to better ensure occurrence of a next-to-complete tagged group. | 06-23-2011 |

20130150256 | NOVEL MICRORNAS FOR THE DETECTION AND ISOLATION OF HUMAN EMBRYONIC STEM CELL-DERIVED CARDIAC CELL TYPES - The present invention relates to the use of human-derived microRNAs (miRNAs) as targets for the identification of cardiac and cardiac-like cell types. In particular, it relates to a specific set of miRNAs which have been found to be correlated to cardiac differentiation and can act to up or downregulate a number of putative mRNA targets to guide differentiation and also act as markers for a cardiac phenotype. In addition, it also relates to the use of these miRNAs as tools for the isolation, selection, purification and characterisation of cardiac and cardiac-like cells and tissues. The invention also encompasses the possible use of these miRNAs in the differentiation and maturation of cardiac or cardiac-like cell types. | 06-13-2013 |

20110301553 | Antimicrobial lubricant - An antimicrobial lubricant combines an antimicrobial agent, preferably silver based, with a silicone lubricant. This is achieved by first formulating a lubricant solution that has a non-volatile silicone lubricant and a volatile solvent carrier. An antimicrobial agent is added to the lubricant solution. The solution is then subjected to ultrasonic energy so that the antimicrobial agent is uniformly mixed with the lubricant in the solution. The solution containing the antimicrobial lubricant may be sprayed onto a medical device, for example the outer surface of the catheter of a peripheral IV catheter. After the solvent flashes off, a coat of uniform antimicrobial lubricant is formed on the catheter surface. The antimicrobial lubricant coating facilitates the insertion of the catheter to a patient, and at the same time prevents the growth of microorganisms from the device and infection to the patient. | 12-08-2011 |
