Abstract: This invention provides compositions and methods of treating subjects with wounds. Compositions include dressings comprising a sheet and an adhesive, wherein the adhesive is adhered to the sheet, and wherein the sheet has channels. In some embodiments, the channels comprise two different classes of channels (e.g. liquid channels and air channels). These dressing can be applied to various kinds of skin injuries and remain affixed, protecting the injury from contaminants and at the same time, allowing exchange of exudates on the proximal (injury) side to the distal side and exchange of topical agents applied from the distal side of the dressing to the wound while also allowing exchange of gasses from the injury to the air and air to the wound.

Abstract: A dryer appliance and method for operation are provided, the method including measuring temperature of air for drying laundry articles; transmitting a first control signal for operating the ignition source to generate heat for heating air for drying laundry articles; measuring, over a period of time following transmission of the control signal, temperature of air for drying laundry articles; and determining an operational state of the heating system based on measuring the temperature of air, wherein the operational state includes a normal ignition state or an ignition failure state, wherein the normal ignition state corresponds to an increase in temperature of air during the period of time, and wherein the ignition failure state corresponds to a substantially unchanged temperature of air.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure include a tissue and/or access device that allows for adjustability of placement of a needle for accessing a blood vessel of an individual in need thereof, particularly when used with an imaging device. The adjustability originates from both angle of the needle for insertion into the body of the individual and longitudinal placement of the needle on the body of the individual. In specific embodiments, a needle guide through which the needle traverses is detachable.

Abstract: This invention provides new products, kits comprising the products, methods for treating conditions using the products, and methods for manufacturing the products. The products comprise an extract, a substrate, and/or a dressing. The extract may comprise a bivalve extract and/or an echinoderm extract.

Abstract: Compositions comprising extracts from marine organisms show beneficial effects on skin ailments. Fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging in skin are improved with the application of compositions with marine extracts. Production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid are increased after application of the compositions.

Abstract: This invention is a hand tool with a body, electric circuit wiring reference information on the front and back, a protective shell, and support magnets.

Abstract: A wound dressing and method of use is provided that increases healing of tissues by targeting damaged tissue at a predetermined wavelength. The device includes the use of a negative pressure bandage, a flexible light sheet, and one or more bioactive marine extracts. Light emitted from the flexible light sheet penetrates through the bandage to target damaged tissue, which accelerates the wound healing process and works synergistically with the negative pressure bandage and bioactive marine extracts such as collagen fibers, alginate, chitosan and fucoidan, or any combination thereof to accelerate healing.

Abstract: Methods and systems for accurately determining and delivering the appropriate ingredients, in appropriate quantities, of a particular substance are disclosed. In some instances, a controller of a fluid delivery device opens a valve for an appropriate amount of time to deliver an appropriate amount of fluid. In some instances, the appropriate amount of time is communicated to the controller by an external user device (e.g., a smartphone or a tablet).
