  • Publication number: 20170029488
    Abstract: The present invention provides fully human antibodies that bind to respiratory syncytial virus F protein, compositions comprising the antibodies and methods of use. The antibodies of the invention are useful for preventing fusion of the virus with the cell membrane and preventing cell to cell spread of the virus, thereby providing a means of preventing the infection, or treating a patient suffering from the infection and ameliorating one or more symptoms or complications associated with the viral infection. The antibodies may also be useful for diagnosis of an infection by RSV.

  • Patent number: 9508374
    Abstract: A hard disc drive (HDD) with an enlarged magnetic recording disc. In some embodiments, a base deck and top cover are arranged to provide an HDD housing with a 2½ inch form factor or a 3½ inch form factor. A magnetic recording disc is supported for rotation within the housing. A data transducer is controllably advanced across a recording surface of the magnetic recording disc to write data to the recording surface, and a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) affixed to an external surface of the base deck incorporates control electronics to provide write signals to the data transducer during the writing of data to the recording surface. The disc has an outer diameter of at least 67 millimeters, mm for the 2½ inch form factor housing and has an outer diameter of at least 97 mm for the 3½ inch form factor housing.

  • Publication number: 20160201995
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system for the storage and recovery of thermal energy, using, as its medium, at least one phase change material (solid-liquid) and a sensible heat solid material for storing/recovering the heat obtained from an external source in the form of phase change latent heat and sensible heat. The aforementioned materials are duly housed inside a single tank containing at least two zones which are differentiated by the range of temperatures to which they are subjected, each zone containing a different material. The most common configuration consists of three different zones located inside the tank, namely: a hot zone in the upper part of the tank, enclosing an encapsulated phase change material characterised by a high melting temperature; a cold zone housed in the lower part of the tank, containing a phase change material with a low melting temperature; and a middle zone containing a sensible heat solid material.
