Abstract: A solid phase for use in separation has been modified using an aqueous phase adsorption of a headgroup-modified lipid to generate analyte specific surfaces for use as a stationary phase in separations such as high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or solid phase extraction (SPE). The aliphatic moiety of the lipid adsorbs strongly to a hydrophobic solid surface, with the hydrophilic and active headgroups orienting themselves toward the more polar mobile phase, thus allowing for interactions with the desired solutes. The surface modification approach is generally applicable to a diversity of selective immobilization applications such as protein immobilization clinical diagnostics and preparative scale HPLC as demonstrated on capillary-channeled fibers, though the general methodology could be implemented on any hydrophobic solid support material.

Abstract: The present invention is based on the discovery that protective antigen related molecules (PARMs) without anthrax lethal factor have antiangiogenic or anticancer properties. The invention is directed to a method of inhibiting an angiogenic disease/disorder or cancer. Additionally, the invention can be applied to those at risk for developing cancer or an angiogenic disease/disorder comprising administering to a mammal an angiogenesis-inhibiting or cancer inhibiting amount of an PARM (including analogs, or derivative thereof having angiogenesis-inhibiting or anticancer activity, consisting of PA, PA fragment, analog, or derivative that is administered in a composition substantially free of anthrax lethal factor or other toxins).

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for counting, sorting, and manipulation of cells, organelles, and/or cellular material using capillary-channeled polymer films.

Abstract: A system (10) for reducing volume of material used in laboratory processes, including a low-volume micro-plate (70,80) having a number of wells (14) bound together with matrix material (16), where the wells include secondary wells (74, 84) having reduced volume, and volume limiting plugs (20). The volume limiting plugs (20) have a shank portion (30) and a tip portion (28), where the shank and tip portions (20,30) are configured to extends a substantial distance into a well (14) of the multi-well plate (70,80) to reduce the volume of the well. Also volume limiting plugs (20) for use with standard multi-well plates and low-volume micro-plates (70,80) for use with standard plugs.

Abstract: A weight supporting glove has a flap attached thereto near the heel which extends distally toward the fingertips. The flap is equipped with a Velcro or similar type fastener on its distal end which cooperates with a mating Velcro strip on the palm of the glove. In use, the flap is wrapped around the handle of a barbell or similar weight and fastened to the palm of the glove to form a loop which assists in supporting the weight.

Abstract: A process for bonding a glass fiber reinforced plastic to a ferro-cement ucture to improve impact strength of the ferro-cement structure comprising the steps curing the ferro-cement mortar; acid etching the mortar on the side of the ferro-cement mortar to which the glass fiber reinforced plastic is to be bonded, rinsing the mortar, drying the mortar, applying a coat of adhesive to the mortar and attaching the glass fiber reinforced plastic to the bonded mortar surface. The adhesive may be partially cured if desired.

Abstract: An electrical capacitor is formed by winding alternating layers of single-sided metallized nonheat-shrinkable dielectric material and of a heat-shrinkable dielectric material together. Radial leads are secured to the ends of the capacitor after it is wound by heating the leads and forcing them into the ends of the dielectric materials. The heat-shrinkable layers effectively seal off the electrodes from each other. In addition, the heat-shrinkable dielectric layers may provide higher current capacities, improved dissipation factor, better control over the temperature vs. capacitance characteristic of the capacitor, improved corona threshold voltage and improved control over the final value of the wound capacitor.
