  • Publication number: 20110152630
    Abstract: In a method for recording and forwarding vital signs of a user, vital signs are measured, possibly linked, and displayed to the user. Once the user has accepted the displayed vital signs or their linkages, the user releases them for transmission by way of an authentification.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 7862782
    Abstract: An apparatus and method are disclosed for producing nanoparticles in a dense fluid medium. The method is based on the formation of nanoparticles from nanoparticle precursors in a dense fluid medium in which a plasma discharge is created between electrodes submerged in the dense fluid medium. The electrodes define a plasma discharge zone between opposing electrode discharge faces and further define an internal cavitation zone into which a cavitation gas is released, creating bubbles in the dense fluid medium. The result is the efficient production of nanoparticles using a high-frequency, high-voltage electric field to react dense-phase precursors in an atmospheric pressure, low temperature environment.
