  • Method for Assessing a Compound Interacting with a Target on Epithelial Cells
    Publication number: 20210003559
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for assessing a compound interacting with a target on polarized epithelial cells. The method comprising the steps of providing an organ chip comprising a main channel and polarized epithelial cells, wherein the main channel is divided into an apical channel and a basal channel separated by the polarized epithelial cells, wherein the apical side of the polarized epithelial cells is directed towards the apical channel and the basolateral side of the polarized epithelial cells is directed towards the basal channel. Determining the localization and optionally the expression level of the target on the polarized epithelial cells.

  • Method and system for integrating gas turbine trim balancing system into electronic engine controls
    Patent number: 9243970
    Abstract: Methods and systems for determining a rebalancing strategy for trim balancing one or more rotational components of a gas turbine. One or more noise, acoustics or vibrational signals may be received at a control device of an aircraft comprising the gas turbine engine while the aircraft is in operation. The one or more noise, acoustics or vibrational signals may be used for determining a rebalancing strategy for one or more unbalanced rotational components.
