Abstract: Ignition-quenching covers are configured to quench an ignition event in a combustible environment triggered by an ignition source associated with an ignition-risk structure. Ignition-quenching covers comprise a porous body that includes two or more porous elements and are configured to cover the ignition-risk structure, wherein the ignition-risk structure is associated with a potential ignition source that may produce the ignition event in the combustible environment. The porous body defines passages sized to quench the ignition event. Methods comprise installing a porous ignition-quenching cover over an ignition-risk structure to prevent bulk combustion, e.g., of a fuel vapor in a fuel tank, due to an ignition event associated with the ignition-risk structure.

Abstract: Ophthalmic tissue delivery devices that include an injector and injector carriers and methods for endothelial keratoplasty surgical procedures are provided. Injectors include a conduit sized to accommodate ophthalmic tissue. One end of the injector is configured for insertion into a patient's eye to inject ophthalmic tissue. Injector carriers include a container, a cap configured to seal an opening of the container. The injector can be coupled to a pressure actuated valve and a syringe where activating the syringe opens the value and allows fluid to flow from the syringe, through the valve, and through the injector to dispense ophthalmic tissue from the injector into a patient's eye without the need to physically contact the ophthalmic tissue.

Abstract: A system for intelligently processing queries for cloud-based network file stores includes a file store that stores groups of documents that are associated with files, a non-transitory storage medium that stores instructions, and a processor. The processor may execute the instructions to receive a ticket based on a communication associated with a query to the file store, pull data for the ticket, check a sender of the communication, identify a file using the data, and/or analyze the communication using an artificial intelligence engine to generate a recommendation. The processor may monitor changes to the recommendation made before being sent in order to update the artificial intelligence engine for the changes.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a cannula assembly having a tube with an internal lumen, a proximal end portion and a distal end portion configured for insertion into a patient. The cannula assembly further includes a housing rotatably coupled to the tube between a closed position and one or more open positions. The housing contains an electronic component comprising an image transmission device, such as a camera, for collecting and receiving images of the surgical site. The housing is adapted to provide the image transmission device with a longitudinal or forward view when the housing is in the closed position and a transverse view (i.e., offset from the longitudinal axis) when the housing is in one of the open positions. The housing is disposed distal to the proximal end portion and proximal to the distal end portion of the tube to protect the image transmission device as the distal end portion creates an incision and/or passes through an existing incision in the patient.

Abstract: A system for monitoring performance of an aircraft windshield includes a sensor comprising a sensory contact and an evaluation unit. The sensory contact is in physical contact with one or more components of the windshield, and generates a signal representative of the performance of the component(s) of the windshield. An electrical connector is secured to the surface of the windshield facing the interior of the aircraft. The signal from the sensory contact passes through the connector to the evaluation unit. The evaluation unit acts on the signal to determine the performance of the component(s) of the windshield, wherein the evaluation unit is spaced from and out of physical contact with the windshield and the electrical connector, and is in electrical contact with the electrical connector.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for controlling contaminants in biopharmaceutical purification processes by using light scattering and UV absorbance to establish a determinant. The invention makes use of multi-angle light scattering (MALS) and UV as a continuous monitoring system to provide information about the elution peak fractions in real-time instead of conventional pooling methods that rely on a predetermined percent UV peak max value to initiate the pooling process; regardless of product quality.
