Abstract: Systems and methods for distribution, storage, transport, administration and/or disposal of one or more therapeutic or diagnostic agents are disclosed. A storage device configured to connect to a delivery system for delivering the therapeutic or diagnostic agent has a housing with a chamber, a vessel having an access port positioned within the chamber. The door is movable relative to the housing between a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the door covers an opening in the housing to enclose the chamber, and, in the open position, the door reveals the opening for accessing the access port of the vessel. The door is moveable between the closed position and the open position in response to actuation by an access mechanism of the delivery system.

Abstract: A coating device includes at least one applicator configured to coat a glue onto two opposite sides of an electrode sheet; at least one roller assembly configured to guide the electrode sheet past the at least one applicator; and at least one support bar arranged under the at least one applicator.

Abstract: The present invention includes substituted chromenones that are useful to inhibit the IRE1/XBP-1 pathway. In certain embodiments, the compounds of the invention inhibit IRE1's RNase activity. In other embodiments, the compounds of the invention are useful to treat or prevent a cancer that involve activation of the ER stress response. The invention also relates, in certain aspects, to the discovery that secretory IgM (sIgM) can orchestrate an immunosuppressive microenvironment by recruiting myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) into different tumor models, such as but not limited to solid tumors (such as lung cancer) and tumors that have high levels of secreted IgM. In certain embodiments, sIgM produced by B cells or CLL cells can contribute to the accumulation of MDSCs in a tumor. In other embodiments, inhibition of the IRE1/XBP-1 pathway can ablate, minimize, or reduce MDSC levels in a tumor.

Abstract: A safety socket comprising a socket, a partition board, a hood and a cover is disclosed. A sliding partition board mounted between the socket and the hood is provided. One end of the partition board covers the socket and the other end extends to the outer part of the socket to form a handle. Two spots are provided in the main body of the partition board which correspond to the receptacles of the socket. On the underside of the partition board a column protrudes with a spring chamber retaining a spring. When the socket is not in use the spring loaded partition board automatically disaligns itself with the receptacles. To use the socket, simply pull back on the handle until the receptacles and the slots on the partition board are aligned.
