Abstract: In various embodiments, degradation of epoxy within packages for ultraviolet light-emitting devices is reduced or substantially eliminated via package venting, prevention of transmission of ultraviolet light to one or more regions of epoxy utilized in the package, and/or utilization of packaging schemes that reduce or avoid utilization of epoxy and/or specific metals.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods for purifying an anti-?4?7 integrin antibody, such as vedolizumab, from a liquid solution, e.g., from a mammalian cell culture clarified harvest. The invention relates, inter alia, to purification methods for controlling the amount of product-related substances and/or process-related impurities present in purified preparations of an anti-?4?7 integrin antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, e.g., vedolizumab. Compositions comprising an anti-?4?7 antibody, and uses thereof to treat a disorder, are also provided.

Abstract: A copper or copper alloy product is provided, as well as a process for manufacturing a copper or copper alloy product. The product may include copper or copper alloy containing a minimum of 60% copper. The product may include an antimicrobial copper, such as, for example, the antimicrobial copper identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The product may include, but is not limited to, for example, MD-Cu29™ antimicrobial copper or copper alloy. The antimicrobial copper or copper alloy which contains an antimicrobial touch surface should effectively kill bacteria within about two hours of exposure to the bacteria.

Abstract: A method of assigning contact phone numbers of a select number of contact phone numbers in a wireless, display-less, keypad-less communication device includes accessing a website on a global computer network to assign contact phone numbers to respective lights and call buttons for the contacts; receiving a prompt to enter data identifying the device; inputting data identifying the device; receiving a prompt to enter a phone number for each contact in a data field for the respective light and call button; entering a phone number for each contact in the data field for the respective light and call button; and transmitting the entered data to the device so that the contact phone numbers are assigned to the respective call buttons and the respective lights.

Abstract: A wireless, display-less, keypad-less communication device for placing a call to and receiving a call from a contact of a select number of contacts includes a housing; a call actuation mechanism situated on the housing; a memory storing a predetermined number of contacts; and a controller configured to initiate an outgoing call to one of the predetermined number of contacts upon actuation of the call actuation mechanism. The controller is further configured to limit outgoing calls to the predetermined number of contacts.

Abstract: A light weight gondola car having side walls constructed of a plurality of upper and lower sheets with a longitudinal stiffener being formed from lower portions of the upper and lower sheets. A bolster transition stake joins the side sheet, top chord, bolster web, and side sill for increased strength. The load from the truck assemblies is transmitted to the car body through load carriers. Diagonal truss members strengthened the end panels. The body frame is connected to the center sill with a reinforcement plate. The center sill and draft sills are interconnected by a tie plate.
