  • GRASPABLE SURGICAL DEVICE
    Publication number: 20240050185
    Abstract: A system for adapting a tubular surgical device for grasping by a surgical instrument is provided that has a distal portion, an adaptor positioned proximally and configured to be disposed about or within a lumen of the tubular surgical device, which has an effective durometer to resist crushing by the surgical instrument. In some embodiments, the adaptor is configured with an external diameter greater than the internal diameter of the lumen of the tubular surgical device. In some embodiments, the adaptor is configured with an external diameter less than or equal to the internal diameter of the tubular surgical device.

  • XRF system with novel sample bottle
    Patent number: 7535989
    Abstract: An XRF system including an analyzer with a sample bottle holder, an x-ray source positioned to emit x-rays into a sample bottle placed in the holder, and a detector positioned to receive x-rays emitted by a sample in the sample bottle positioned in the sample bottle holder. A supply of sample bottles receivable in the sample bottle holder, each sample bottle including a first cap with the window therein for allowing x-rays to pass there through when the sample bottle is positioned in the holder, and a second cap without a window for transporting and storing the sample.
