Abstract: An integrated inductor assembly is provided. The integrated inductor assembly includes a magnetic core, a first inductor, and a second inductor. The magnetic core has a first side, an opposing second side, and an opening defined within the magnetic core. The opening extends into the magnetic core from at least one of the first side and the second side. The first inductor includes a first conductive winding inductively coupled to the magnetic core. The first conductive winding includes a first shorting segment positioned within the opening. The second inductor includes a second conductive winding inductively coupled to the magnetic core. The second conductive winding includes a second shorting segment positioned within the opening. The first and second inductors are configurable to operate independently of one another.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel, biocompatible matrices for cell encapsulation and transplantation. If further provides methods for delivering agents to encapsulate cells and to the local environment of a host system. The invention also provides methods for targeting and manipulating particular cells and/or proteins of the host system. In a composition aspect of the invention, a composition including a collection of capsules is provided. The capsules comprise an inner core, and the inner core is covered by an outer shell composed of a positive polyelectrolyte and a negative polyelectrolyte. The inner core of the capsules contains at least one cell.

Abstract: A system, apparatus and methods for transmitting video and audio data over twisted pairs are described. A differential signal that contains video color information is transmitted over each twisted pair. Data representing digital samples of at least one audio signal is transmitted on two or more of the twisted pairs as a common mode signal.

Abstract: This invention relates to a connecting device comprising first and second coupling members for connection to a towing and towed vehicle. The coupling members are lockingly engageable for connecting the vehicles in a towing relationship. A power supply conductor is provided for in use supplying power to rear lights of the towing vehicle. A pair of interengageable contacts are provided in the power supply conductor, one contact on each coupling member, the contacts engaging each other when the coupling members lockingly engage each other. A signal transmitter arrangement is provided for transmitting a control signal when power is supplied to a rear light provided on the towing vehicle. A signal receiver arrangement is provided for receiving the control signal and activating at least one rear light of the towed vehicle in accordance with the control signal.

Abstract: Masking films, having the advantageous properties of both those masking films having an intermediate adhesive layer and those masking films having a high-adhesion masking layer without an intermediate adhesive layer, include a masking layer which incorporates a cellulose ester component, a polyurethane and one or more colorants selected from dyes and pigments.
