  • Publication number: 20200317745
    Abstract: Disclosed herein includes a drug delivery system comprising at least one peptide and a targeting ligand for bone fracture and/or for bone healing. Some embodiments include a peptide delivery system comprising at least an acidic, basic, hydrophilic, hydrophobic or neutral peptide linked to an acidic peptide or nonpeptidic polyanion for use in targeting the aforementioned attached peptide to a bone fracture surface. In some embodiments, a conjugated peptide expresses an anabolic function that acts through PTH receptor 1, and various formats of targeting ligands guide the drug to raw hydroxyapatite.

  • Patent number: 7901330
    Abstract: Disclosed is an exercise machine, and particularly a front or rear mount elliptical or elliptical-type machine, comprising: (a) a support structure; (b) a drive component pivotally coupled to the support structure and configured to rotate about a first pivot axis; (c) a reciprocating foot support configured to travel about a closed path having a stride length upon rotation of the drive component; (d) a coupling configuration configured to support the reciprocating foot support about the drive component at a position radially offset from the first pivot axis, the coupling configuration pivotally coupled to the drive component about a second pivot axis; and (e) an adjustment mechanism configured to enable the coupling configuration to pivot about the second pivot axis between at least two adjustment positions to vary the radial offset of the reciprocating foot support with respect to the first pivot axis.

  • Publication number: 20070200884
    Abstract: A method of dispensing a single ligament of fluid includes ejecting a first quantity of fluid from an inkjet dispenser toward a substrate, and ejecting a second quantity of fluid from the inkjet dispenser toward the substrate, wherein the second quantity of fluid is ejected from the inkjet dispenser at a frequency sufficient that the second quantity of fluid catches the first quantity of fluid thereby forming a single ligament of fluid prior to contacting the substrate.

  • Publication number: 20070099168
    Abstract: A method for configuring and evaluating documents is described. A printing device accesses data that describes a document which includes one or more user designation areas. The printing device prints a first version of a document with user designation areas. The user completes the user designation areas and the printing device determines which user designation areas have been completed. The printing device accesses data from the computer where printed information is generated based on the completed users designated areas.

  • Publication number: 20070024876
    Abstract: A printer that includes a multi-colorant print cartridge is described. The printer can determine if a level of a most depleted colorant in the multi-colorant cartridge and a level of a least depleted colorant in the multi-colorant cartridge meet predetermined criteria. The printer can, if the criteria are met, perform a default printing procedure to print the document. The printer can, if the criteria are not met, perform an alternative printing procedure to print the document. The alternative printing procedure uses more of the least depleted colorant to print the document as compared to the default printing procedure.

  • Publication number: 20060071367
    Abstract: A three-dimensional object is fabricated from powder. A powder layer is deposited. The powder layer is selectively wetted to hinder movement of the powder. A binder is applied to selected areas of the powder layer to harden the areas of the powder layer. The steps are repeated until the three-dimensional object is fabricated.

  • Publication number: 20050087897
    Abstract: Systems and methods for producing three-dimensional objects are provided. One exemplary system, among others, includes a layer forming system. The layer forming system is operative to implement criteria for forming the three-dimensional object. The three-dimensional object includes a plurality of layers and each layer includes layers selected from a shell layer and an interior layer. The shell layer includes at least one shell voxel, and the interior layer includes at least one interior voxel. In addition, the layer forming system is operative to form the layers in an iterative manner according to the criteria, plane at least one layer in a manner according to the criteria, control waste produced by controlling the formation of the layers using the criteria provided, and form the object.
