  • Patent number: 11826431
    Abstract: The present disclosure belongs to the field of pharmaceutical preparations and relates to the design of a series of lipophilic derivatives by using wild-type penetrating peptide penetratin. These penetratin derivatives have a strong ability to penetrate the ocular tissues and do not cause ocular tissue toxicity. As ocular absorption enhancers, non-invasive routes could be used to achieve intraocular drug delivery and increase the ocular bioavailability of drugs. These penetratin derivatives and the ophthalmic drug delivery system constructed by them are used for eye drop administration, which could replace the intraocular injection with poor patients compliance, which greatly enhances the convenience and safety of the treatment of intraocular and fundus diseases.

  • Publication number: 20230377139
    Abstract: A framework that includes one or more feature extractors (models) and a cluster component for clustering is described herein. The framework supports (1) offline image-based unsupervised clustering that replaces time-consuming manual gating; (2) online image-based single cell sorting. During training, one or multiple cell image datasets with or without ground truth are used to train one or more feature extractors, which are based on a neural network including several convolutional layers. Once trained, the feature extractors are used to extract features of cell images for unsupervised cell clustering and sorting. In addition, additional datasets may be used to further refine the feature extractors after they have been trained.

  • Publication number: 20230375782
    Abstract: Depositing a side slab structure on a cladding layer before etching a supporting dielectric prevents tapering of a silicon waveguide during etching of the supporting dielectric and a substrate. For example, the side slab structure may be deposited over the silicon waveguide and the cladding layer after etching the cladding layer. As a result, when an electronic device is integrated ex situ on the substrate, wave intensity and/or total internal reflection is improved, which improves an efficiency of the electronic device.
