Abstract: An improved method of culturing cells for cell therapy applications that includes growing desired cells in the presence of antigen-presenting cells and/or feeder cells and with medium volume to surface area ratio of up to 1 ml/cm2 if the growth surface is not comprised of gas permeable material and up to 2 ml/cm2 if the growth surface is comprised of gas permeable material. The desired cells are at a surface density of less than 0.5×106 cells/cm2 at the onset of a production cycle, and the surface density of the desired cells plus the surface density of the antigen presenting cells and/or feeder cells are at least about 1.25×105 cells/cm2.

Abstract: An improved office tool for use with a universal storage system that includes a magnetic holding means integrated with the improved office tool and a universal storage device. The magnetic holding means is applied to or incorporated into the office tool, which is then stored on the universal storage device. The universal storage device includes a mounting surface of magnetically attractive material and securely holds the office tool in place, yet readily releases it when it is needed. The magnetic holding means is well-suited for mounting all types of conventional self-inking, flash inked, pre-inked, as well as wood-handled stamps, of any size, weight and shape, as well as other office and household articles and tools.

Abstract: A self-inking stamp holder, said stamps comprising a box-like frame or case with openings on at least two opposite sides and a slide containing an overturnable stamping member and an inking pad, elastically sliding within said frame or case between the openings. The holder is formed by an upright and a plurality of main wings extending obliquely in a parallel relationship from at least one face thereof each wing being capable of holding a stamp. Retaining means are associated to each of the main wings for abutting on said frame or case, when held from a respective main wing, from the opposite side of the main wing. To firmly secure the stamp in position thereon.

Abstract: A fingernail stamper craft set comprising a base having five regions at five vertical different levels where the top surfaces of each region include one or more recesses. The first region at the lowest level includes recesses for receiving the fingers of a user having the nails to be decorated. The second region includes recesses for receiving nail enhancement accessories such as nail polish, cotton balls, emery boards and ink pads. The third and fourth regions include recesses for receiving stampers including stampers bearing letters of the alphabet and stampers bearing designs. The fifth or top region includes a recess for storing nail stickers. The nail stamper base may be engageable by another base from a nail enhancement set where the second base also has a number of recesses for accessories.

Abstract: A fingernail enhancement craft set having a base with accessories and tools for decorating fingernails. The base has five regions of progressively higher surfaces where each of the surfaces include openings, recesses or bins for storing items to decorate the nails. Such items include nail polish, glitter and stickers, as well as items useful when working on the nails such as cotton balls, cotton swabs, emery boards and tools. In particular, the tools are a magnifying lense and a fan. The first region at the lowest vertical level includes indentations for the placement of the fingers of the nails to be decorated. The remaining regions store or locate and support the accessories and tools.

Abstract: A device for an holding office utensil, such as an ink stamp, a self-inking stamp or other office utensil, includes a base plate including an arrangement of through holes and a spacer for supporting the base plate in a tilted position on a surface. An attachment is removably insertable in at least one of the through holes and is adapted for holding the office utensil.

Abstract: A stamp rack includes a base, an inner plate disposed to a bottom of the base, a first post disposed to the base wherein an annular flange and an engaging rod respectively extend radially and longitudinally from a second end of the first post, a first disk mounted to the first post and supported by first flange, a second post securely inserted into the first post by extending a protrusion of the second post through a hole defined in the first end of the first post, a second flange extending radially from the second post so as to support a second disk mounted to the second post and a cap mounted to the second post to position the second disk. Each of the first disk and the second disk has a plurality of Y-shaped recesses defined therein for receiving stamps therein.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an improved clip and supporting rack therefor. The clip is constructed with rigid outwardly diverging arms to eliminate the need to force the stamp handle through a throat, and does not require spring loading. Furthermore, the clip easily accommodates stamps having handles of numerous sizes and shapes. One embodiment of supporting rack is free standing and provides circular clip supports forming storage bins for small items such as paper clips and the like. The load from the clips and stamps on the supports is carried down through a central post. Another embodiment of rack is adapted to be straight and wall mounted with spaces provided to permit snap-on of the clips.

Abstract: Disclosed is a low cost, lightweight, portable device for storing and displaying hand stamps by attaching clips to the stamps and then clipping the hand stamps to a vertical lattice. The device can be carried from above or supported from above by a hook in its top, supported on a work surface by an attached flat base plate, or rotatably supported at the side of a work surface by an edge clamp which grips the edge of the work surface.
