  • Myosin light chain kinase inhibitor compounds, compositions and related methods of use
    Patent number: 8278305
    Abstract: Pyridazinyl compounds, compositions and related methods of use.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 25, 2010
    Date of Patent: October 2, 2012
    Assignee: Northwestern University
    Inventors: Daniel Martin Watterson, Linda J. Van Eldik, Heather Behanna, Hantamalala Ralay Ranaivo
  • Nanopatterned surfaces and related methods for selective adhesion, sensing and separation
    Patent number: 7752931
    Abstract: A surface comprises a surface member and a plurality of components thereon. Such heterogenous surface compositions and configurations, related systems and methods for sensing particle or analyte interaction therewith can selectively and/or differentially interact with a range of particles/analytes, in lieu of specific molecular sensor-analyte interactions for each particle.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 3, 2006

    Assignee: University of Massachusetts
    Inventors: Maria M. Santore, Natalia Kozlova
  • Direct hydrocarbon fuel cells
    Patent number: 7709124
    Abstract: The direct electrochemical oxidation of hydrocarbons in solid oxide fuel cells, to generate greater power densities at lower temperatures without carbon deposition. The performance obtained is comparable to that of fuel cells used for hydrogen, and is achieved by using novel anode composites at low operating temperatures. Such solid oxide fuel cells, regardless of fuel source or operation, can be configured advantageously using the structural geometries of this invention.
