Abstract: A supply item has toner for use in an imaging device. A chip has memory storing quanta indicating allowed usage of the supply item over its lifetime and a multiplier correlating the quanta to toner mass. The imaging device requires quanta to conduct imaging operations and loads the quanta and multiplier by way of a certificate stored in the memory. The imaging device retrieves quanta from the chip over time and both devices keep tally. Initialization between the supply item and imaging device includes providing encrypted and unencrypted instances of firmware versions and certificates from the supply item that the imaging device can compare for security. Alternatively, the supply item defines a fuser assembly, imaging unit, intermediate transfer member, or other component installed for use in the imaging device.

Abstract: An apparatus for treating a patient suffering from acquired Transthyretin Amyloidosis includes a blood dialysis circuit with a pump for pumping the patient's blood that has been pretreated with magnetic nanoparticles through the dialysis circuit, and a transthyretin amyloid (TTR) protein separation component downstream of the pump and structured and disposed to separate the TTR proteins from the patient's blood by magnetic attraction as a result of the magnetic nanoparticles infiltrating the TTR proteins prior to circulation through the circuit.
