  • Patent number: 11990648
    Abstract: A miniature electrochemical cell of a primary or secondary chemistry with a total volume that is less than 0.5 cc is described. The cell has a casing comprising an annular sidewall supported on a lower plate opposite an upper lid. The lid has a sealed electrolyte fill port. At least one electrolyte channel in the inner surface of the lid extends radially from the fill port and outwardly beyond an outer peripheral edge of the current collector. A current collector contacts an inner surface of the lid with a first electrode active material contacting the current collector. An opposite polarity active material contacts the lower plate. A dielectric material coats the lower open end of the annular sidewall and a portion of the inner surface of the sidewall. A glass seals the dielectric material to the lower plate. An electrolyte activates the electrode assembly.

  • Publication number: 20240115379
    Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods from delivering prosthetic devices, such as prosthetic heart valves, through the body and into the heart for implantation therein. The prosthetic devices delivered with the delivery systems disclosed herein are, for example, radially expandable from a radially compressed state mounted on the delivery system to a radially expanded state for implantation using an inflatable balloon of the delivery system. Exemplary delivery routes through the body and into the heart include transfemoral routes, transapical routes, and transaortic routes, among others.

  • Publication number: 20230178234
    Abstract: A method for tracking injection site information includes displaying, on a user interface, a plurality of injection zones, each of the plurality of injection zones representing a segment of the body suitable for medication injection and including a graphical indicator indicating a period of time since a most recent previous injection in the injection zone. The method also includes receiving, via the user interface, injection information relating to a new injection in a particular injection zone. The method also includes updating a graphical indicator of the particular injection zone on the user interface to indicate a new date and time of injection to the particular injection zone.

  • Patent number: 9509767
    Abstract: A system for preventing redirection loops during collaborative web browsing is provided including: a CPU; a memory in communication with the CPU; instructions stored in the memory and executable by the CPU to prevent redirects encountered during a collaborative web browsing session, the instructions further comprising: instructions enabling a device to join a collaborative web browsing session; instructions enabling detection of a redirection loop based upon a query to a uniform resource locator (URL) history stored in a memory; and instructions enabling termination of the redirect loop; wherein, upon the detection of a redirection loop, the device ignores URL updates of the collaborative web browsing session for a predetermined amount of time.

  • Patent number: 9468624
    Abstract: A novel small molecule antagonizes two types of acyl homoserine lactone receptors: membrane-bound and cytoplasmic. A focused library of analogs and derivatives of the original antagonist was synthesized. Analog and derivative molecules harbor a range of activities. The novel small molecule and most potent antagonist protects the eukaryote Caenorhabditis elegans from quorum-sensing-mediated killing by the bacterial pathogen Chromobacterium violaceum. The saving of C. elegans demonstrates the use of these molecules as small molecule antimicrobials.
