  • Publication number: 20240103012
    Abstract: Provided are methods, kits and compositions related to toxicity associated with administration of cell therapy for the treatment of diseases or conditions, e.g., cancer, including methods for use in predicting and treating a toxicity. In some embodiments, the toxicity is a neurotoxicity or cytokine release syndrome (CRS), such as a severe neurotoxicity or a severe CRS. The methods generally involve detecting a parameter of a biomarker or individually a parameter of each biomarker in a panel of biomarkers, such as a concentration, amount or activity, and comparing the detected parameter to a reference value for the parameter to determine if the subject is at risk for developing the toxicity, such as neurotoxicity or CRS or severe neurotoxicity or severe CRS.

  • Patent number: 11905695
    Abstract: A waste collection and disposal unit including a tank, a float-switch sensing system, and a grinder pump. The tank contains a contoured and sloping floor, a front section, a back section, two side sections and a one-piece lid, which is securable onto the other sections of the tank. The floor slopes downwardly from below the float-switch sensing system to below the grinder pump at an angle of at least about 5 degrees and is contoured in a downward curved arc between the front and back sections of the tank.

  • Patent number: 11441578
    Abstract: A water-powered sump pump including a chamber with a water supply inlet, wastewater inlet and a discharge outlet, wherein a venturi is secured within the chamber, and an elbow joint, including a wastewater exit portion and a wastewater entrance portions. This elbow joint is rotationally securable to the wastewater inlet of the chamber to permit securing of the water-powered sump pump in any desired orientation in relation to the sump. In one embodiment the wastewater inlet includes a cylindrical ingress portion with an upwardly facing ridge around a circumference thereof. The securing system of the elbow joint includes tabs on an inner surface of the exit portion of the elbow, each tab containing an inwardly extending rib which rib extends beyond the upwardly facing ridge on the ingress portion of the wastewater inlet when the elbow joint is secured onto the wastewater inlet.

  • Patent number: 9352327
    Abstract: A grinder pump basin system is provided which includes a basin; a cover plate; a bracket secured to the cover plate; and a grinder pump with cutter plate with openings and a cutter blade secured to the bracket above a bottom surface of the basin. The openings in the cutter plate have an unique shape which assists in the cutting of material which flows through an inlet of a grinder pump. The shape of the cutter blade cooperates with the openings in the cutter plate such that solids are forced between these respective components and thereby are efficiently cut into small pieces for passing through the openings and for discharge from the grinder pump basin system.

  • Patent number: 9004381
    Abstract: A grinder pump basin system is provided which includes a basin; a cover plate; a bracket secured to the cover plate; and a grinder pump with cutter plate with openings and a cutter blade secured to the bracket above a bottom surface of the basin. The bracket includes a front portion, which prevents waste water from interacting adversely with the grinder pump when it enters the basin. A discharge system for the grinder pump is secured to an outlet of the grinder pump and includes a discharge pipe and a flexible discharge coupling. Flow directional jets are also provided in an elbow of the pump discharge system to direct waste water and solids away from the grinder pump.
