Abstract: A heating arrangement for a cooking appliance comprises a heating element, a container, a container receiving member, and a cooling element configured to directly cool both the heating element and the container when the container is received in the container receiving member.

Abstract: A microfluidic apparatus includes a microfluidic chip for MicroOrganoSpheres (MOS) generation. A first channel is defined in a surface of the microfluidic chip and includes: a droplet generation portion including an inlet portion, a junction between the inlet portion and an emulsifying fluid channel, and a chamber downstream of the junction. A cross-sectional area of the chamber is larger than that of the inlet portion. The first channel includes a polymerization portion downstream of the droplet generation portion, the polymerization portion having a serpentine configuration. The apparatus includes a cartridge for MOS demulsification, including: a collection container; a substrate disposed on the collection container, and a membrane disposed between the collection container and the surface of the substrate. A second channel is defined in the surface of the substrate that faces the collection container and is fluidically connected to an output of the polymerization portion of the first channel.

Abstract: The disclosure herein relates to isolated and purified mammalian fetal allografts and kits and compositions containing these. Also disclosed are methods of preparing isolated and purified mammalian fetal allografts; methods of contacting a wound of a subject with these, and methods of treating a disease or condition with these.

Abstract: A system and method for including a medical classification code in a computer application such as an electronic health record includes a web service configured to render as an interactive object in a portion of an application user interface. In response to a query, the web service returns an output including data, user interface components, and behavioral logic in order to update an interactive object.

Abstract: A valve assembly is disclosed which partitions a conventional syringe into proximal and distal chambers to provide a multi-chamber, sequentially dispensing syringe apparatus. Incorporated in the valve assembly is a valved stopper having a valve (e.g. a slit valve) and a separator which filters out gas from liquid being dispensed through the valve assembly. A syringe plunger communicates through fluid in the proximal chamber to force displacement of the valve assembly. The valve is actuated by differential pressure of a force greater than the valve assembly displacement force. The valve assembly may be made from two parts: (1) a valved stopper (may be molded from basic syringe plunger material); (2) a separator (may be injection molded from syringe barrel material).
