20140131578 | PORTABLE SPECTROMETER - A portable spectrometer device includes an illumination source for directing at a sample, and a tapered light pipe (TLP) for capturing light interacting with the sample at a first focal ratio and for delivering the light at a second focal ratio lower than the first focal ratio. A linearly variable filter (LVF) separates the captured light into a spectrum of constituent wavelength signals; and a detector array, including a plurality of pixels, each of the plurality of pixels disposed to receive at least a portion of a plurality of the constituent wavelength signals provides a power reading for each constituent wavelength. Preferably, the TLP is lensed at one end, and recessed in a protective boot with stepped inner walls. The gap between the TLP and LVF is minimized to further enhance resolution and robustness. | 05-15-2014 |
20150247795 | SPECTROMETER WITH A RELAY LIGHTPIPE - A lightpipe is coupled to a spectrometer based on a laterally variable optical filter. The lightpipe may be used for both guiding the illuminating light towards a sample and collecting light reflected or emitted by the sample upon illumination, for spectral measurements at a distance from the sample afforded by the lightpipe. The lightpipe may include a slab of homogeneous transparent material for unconstrained bidirectional propagation of light in bulk of the material. The lightpipe may be solid, hollow, or sectioned for separate guiding of the illuminating and the reflected light. | 09-03-2015 |

20130302345 | CD89 ACTIVATION IN THERAPY - The invention relates to the use of CD89 activating molecules, in particular Fc alpha comprising molecules, and more particularly, IgA, for inducing apoptosis in neutrophils. Anti-CD89 antibodies can alternatively be used. The CD89 activation is beneficial in the treatment of various disorders associated with increases in neutrophils, such as autoimmune disorders, inflammatory disorders, NETosis, or cystic fibrosis. | 11-14-2013 |

20140096392 | METHOD FOR MAKING A TIMEPIECE COMPONENT - A method of manufacturing a timepiece component, such as a balance, an oscillating mass or a wheel, comprises a micro-manufacturing technique, such as the DRIE technique. The method may comprise forming at least one member in or at the periphery of the structure, of a material different from that of the structure. This member is typically metal and is formed by electro-forming using a cavity of the structure as a mold. | 04-10-2014 |
