  • Publication number: 20250216089
    Abstract: An eco kitchen fume purification and extraction system, comprises a fume extraction system which generates negative pressure by a negative pressure device to inhale fume in the kitchen into an air inlet and transmit fume in the pipeline; a fume condensation chamber which is equipped with a filter for cooling and condensing the fume inside; the fume condensation chamber is provided with a condensed air inlet; a ventilation device inhales the air in a ventilation space through a compression device which compresses and sends the air to a compressed air inlet of the vortex tube; a low-temperature air outlet of the vortex tube is connected to the condensed air inlet of the fume condensation chamber; the fume condensation chamber cools down the internal temperature through the low-temperature gas generated by the vortex tube, the filter is kept in a low-temperature environment; the fume is cooled and collected when passing through the low-temperature filter, thereby greatly reducing the amount of oil fume emissions

  • Publication number: 20160264682
    Abstract: The invention relates to factor D inhibitors, which bind to factor D and block the functional activity of factor D in complement activation. The inhibitors include antibody molecules, as well as homologues, analogues and modified or derived forms thereof, including immunoglobulin fragments like Fab, F(ab?)2 and Fv, small molecules, including peptides, oligonucleotides, peptidomimetics and organic compounds. A monoclonal antibody which bound to factor D and blocked its ability to activate complement was generated and designated 166-32. The hybridoma producing this antibody was deposited at the American Type Culture Collection, 10801 University Blvd., Manassas, Va. 20110-2209, under Accession Number HB-12476.

  • Publication number: 20160200805
    Abstract: The invention relates to inhibitors that bind to C5 and C5a, but which do not prevent the activation of C5 and do not prevent formation of or inhibit the activity of C5b. One example of such an inhibitor molecule is the monoclonal antibody designated MAb137-26, which binds to a shared epitope of human C5 and C5a. These inhibitors may be used to inhibit the activity of C5a in treating diseases and conditions mediated by excessive or uncontrolled production of C5a. The inhibitor molecules are also useful for diagnostic detection of the presence/absence or amount of C5 or C5a.

  • Publication number: 20110200604
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel peptide epitopes derived from the CH3 domain of IgE which are recognized by high affinity antibodies that specifically bind IgE. These novel peptides may be used for both active immunization of a subject by administering these peptides to generate high affinity antibodies in a subject, as well as for generating high affinity anti-IgE antibodies in non-human hosts that specifically bind to these regions of IgE for passive immunization of a subject.

  • Publication number: 20110180096
    Abstract: A curling iron has a heatable barrel defining a lengthwise axis of the curling iron, a handle assembly having a grip, and a rotation mechanism coupled to a proximal end of the barrel and part of the handle assembly. The rotation mechanism permits rotation of at least part of the handle assembly relative to the barrel about the lengthwise axis of the curling iron between two or more different rotational orientations.
