Abstract: A multifunctional system in which a nanostructure (size range of about 10-1000 nm) degrades on exposure to an infection and its associated inflammatory milieu. The degraded nanostructures release the encapsulated drug during the process of degradation, where the kinetics of drug release is determined by the severity of the infection and inflammation. This degradation is triggered by proteases secreted by the pathogen, host polymorphonuclear leucocytes and other host cells. The nanostructures are conjugated to anti-TLR (Toll-like receptor) ligands for targeting the corneal epithelium and blocking the inflammatory pathway.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system that enables users to transact (buy, sell, rent or exchange) used products by facilitating secured localized delivery and/or retrieval of the products, and ensuring that transacting users are present in the geo-spatial vicinity of one another. In particular, the embodiments of the present invention propose a cost-effective transaction model for the users to transact used products. The transacting users are neither incurring inconvenience of visiting a physical store to deliver and/or retrieve the transacted products offline. Nor they will incur any cost towards shipping that most of the online ecommerce business requires.

Abstract: This invention related to a star and crescent structure and method thereof. More particularly it relates to a structure comprising a star which is secured to a crescent via at least one link, and method thereof. The structure is provided with at least one internal illumination device. The structure is also provided with at least one electrical means to illuminate the structure internally.

Abstract: Systems, computer-readable media, and methods are presented for selecting a service entity that utilize a processor, a memory connected to the processor, and program instructions storable in the memory and executable by the processor. Program instructions can execute to receive information from a first entity regarding a particular set of attributes of a second entity, a set of services to be performed by the second entity, and a predetermined compensation for the services. Program instructions can execute to transmit a communication to a second entity that contains the particular set of attributes, the set of services to be performed, and the predetermined compensation. Program instructions can execute to identify a number of second entities to perform the set of services by matching a number of the particular set of attributes received from the first entity. Additionally, program instructions can execute to receive a selection from the first entity of at least one of the number of second entities.
