Abstract: A liquid chromatography flow cell including an integrated light source and an integrated detection chamber. The integrated light source includes a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs), wherein each LED emits light of a specific wavelength. The light emitted from the integrated light source is directed to pass through a sample in a flow chamber of the flow cell without any optical conditioning, and the light not absorbed by the sample flows out of the flow chamber directly into the integrated detection chamber, where an intensity of the unabsorbed light is measured by detectors coupled to the integrated chamber.

Abstract: A system for irradiating a microplate may include a modular light engine with one or more light emitting devices. The light emitting devices are configured to emit germicidal radiation to irradiate the microplate, which is configured to be positioned below the modular light engine inside a chamber of the microplate irradiation system. In this way, a uniform intensity of germicidal radiation may be output by light emitting devices, resulting in disruption of contaminating nucleic acids present in the microplate.

Abstract: An imaging catheter includes a delivery lumen and an imaging array. The imaging catheter is sized to be inserted within an introducer sheath. The delivery lumen facilitates insertion of a therapeutic device. An imager is arranged on an outside surface of a distal end of the imaging catheter. The imager collapses the distal end of the imaging catheter when the imager is within the introducer sheath. The distal end of the imaging catheter is allowed to expand when the imager exits the introducer sheath to facilitate delivery of the therapeutic device to a therapy site.

Abstract: An electrode lead for implantation into a small heart vessel, especially into a coronary sinus, is provided with an elongated outer insulating lead body (1), having a proximal end (2), a distal end (3) and at least one electrode pole (4) at the distal end (3). At least one electrical conductor unit (6, 6?) leads to said electrode pole (4), each of said electrical conductor units (6, 6?) having a conductor core (7) and a separate insulating sheath (8) surrounding said conductor core (7). A lumen (9) is provided in said insulating lead body (1), being defined by a tubular envelope (10), to accommodate a guide wire means (11). The at least one electrical conductor unit (6, 6?) and the envelope (10) of the lumen (9) are each slidable relative to each other along their longitudinal direction (L) and fixed relative to each other at least in the vicinity of the distal end (3) of the lead body (1).
