  • METHOD FOR FITTING AN IMPLANT TO A CATHETER
    Publication number: 20150107078
    Abstract: A system and a method for crimping a heart valve prosthesis onto a catheter shaft. The system comprises two components (1, 2) which receive the heart valve prosthesis (12) and are inserted into one another in the direction (14) in order to crimp the heart valve prosthesis (12).

  • Microfluidic apparatus to control liposome formation
    Patent number: 8715591
    Abstract: An apparatus to create a homogenous liposome population without post-processing using laminar flow/diffusive mixing, and for reducing waste discharge of the therapeutic or compound to be encapsulated and delivered by the liposomes.
    Type: Grant

    Inventors: Michael Gaitan, Andreas Jahn, Laurie E. Locascio, Wyatt Vreeland, Joseph E. Reiner
  • OVERPACK, METHOD FOR THE MANUFACTURE THEREOF
    Publication number: 20100288724
    Abstract: An overpack for a beverage bottle comprising a housing which includes at least one side wall element and a base element, the side wall element and the base element being a common extruded part formed during an extrusion process. A method for manufacturing an overpack for a beverage bottle is also provided that comprising a housing, the housing being formed by at least one side wall element and a base element. The side wall element and the base element are produced together as an extruded part produced in an extrusion process.

  • Controlled vesicle self-assembly in continuous two phase flow microfluidic channels
    Publication number: 20050112184
    Abstract: Methods for the formation of liposomes that encapsulate reagents in a continuous 2-phase flow microfluidic network with precision control of size, for example, from 100 nm to 300 nm, by manipulation of liquid flow rates are described. By creating a solvent-aqueous interfacial region in a microfluidic format that is homogenous and controllable on the length scale of a liposome, fine control of liposome size and polydispersity can be achieved.
