  • Patent number: 12593828
    Abstract: An animal rack system includes an animal monitoring assembly. The animal monitoring assembly includes a study region configured to receive an animal cage, a first emitter panel including a first two-dimensional array of first emitters, and a first receiver panel including a first two-dimensional array of first receivers. The first emitter panel and the first receiver panel are disposed on opposing sides of the study region. The first emitters are configured to emit first beams, and the first receivers are configured to receive emitted first beams from corresponding first emitters. The first receivers are further configured to generate first signals indicative of whether the first receivers received the emitted first beams. The animal monitoring assembly further includes a console configured to process the first signals to track an activity of a subject in the study region.

  • Publication number: 20260053958
    Abstract: The present invention relates to halogenated somatostatin analogs with selectivity for multiple somatostatin receptor subtypes and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same. Moreover, the present invention relates to said halogenated somatostatin analogs and pharmaceutical compositions for use in therapy and/or diagnosis, for example in the treatment and/or diagnosis of diseases (e.g., cancer such as a neuroendocrine cancer) that are characterized by a high expression (e.g., overexpression) of one or more somatostatin receptor subtypes (e.g., somatostatin receptor 2 (SST2) and/or somatostatin receptor 5 (SST5)).

  • Publication number: 20130052045
    Abstract: A handheld electric blower for stimulating and accelerating a fire includes: a hollow, generally cylindrical shaped body having a tapered, open front tip and an open rear end; a turbine blade positioned within the body; an electric motor positioned within the body and operationally coupled to the turbine blade; an adjustable baffle positioned within the front tip of the body; and a baffle control provided on an external surface of the body to adjust the position of the baffle to decrease or increase the flow of air through the body. Activation of the electric motor causes the turbine blade to rotate, thereby drawing air into the open rear end of the body and directing the air out of the tip.

  • Publication number: 20110155152
    Abstract: This invention provides a method for removing undesirable constituents from tobacco which includes extracting tobacco material in an aqueous or organic solvent and filtering the product of the extraction using a horizontal belt filter. The extract and insoluble tobacco residue may be further treated enzymically, chemically or otherwise to remove a complement of undesirable constituents. The extract and insoluble tobacco residue are recombined to form a regenerated tobacco material that is less harmful when combusted than the original material.
