  • Portable power system with modular battery pack receptacle
    Patent number: 11404892
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for a portable power system. A portable power system can include a housing having a plurality of receptacles adapted to receive one or more batteries. The housing can further include control circuitry that is configured to utilize the batteries in order to provide output power to one or more detachable external devices. Examples of such external devices include fry pans, sauce pans, griddles, blenders, lights, or power inverters.

  • Methods and compositions for increasing the efficacy of biologically-active ingredients
    Publication number: 20060276339
    Abstract: The invention provides methods and compositions for modulating the sensitivity of cells to cytotoxic compounds and other active agents. In accordance with the invention, compositions are provided comprising combinations of ectophosphatase inhibitors and active agents. Active agents include antibiotics, fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, chemotherapeutic agents, and plant growth regulators. By increasing the efficacy of active agents, the invention allows use of compositions with lowered concentrations of active ingredients.

  • Genetic and epigenetic manipulation of ABC transporters and ecto-phosphatases for the conference of drug resistance and for the loss of drug resistance in biological systems and methods for the detection of ecto-phosphatase inhibitors
    Publication number: 20060265779
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for modulating the resistance of cells to foreign compounds, i.e. drugs, antibiotics, etc by altering the ATP gradient across biological membranes. The altering of the ATP gradient across biological membranes is achieved through the manipulation of ecto-phosphatase activity and ABC transporter molecule activity which may be useful to confer herbicide resistance to plants, confer antibiotic resistance to bacteria, confer drug resistance to yeast cells, or to reduce resistance in cells to facilitate chemotherapeutic treatments, and to reduce resistance in bacteria and yeast. The present invention is also directed to the methods for identifying ecto-phosphatase inhibitors and uses thereof.
