Electroporation cartridges include an electroporation chamber defined by an elongate body, a first electrode at a proximal end and a second electrode at a distal end of a chamber. Electroporation systems include one or more components including a pulse generator, compartments for placing either flow-through or single use electroporation cartridges, components for storage of cells, cooling and pre-cooling mechanisms, removably insertable modular casings having compartments for holding and arranging electroporation system and reagent components, one or more pumps for moving sample through the system, and processors and controllers.

Abstract: Techniques for serving a manifest file of an adaptive streaming video include receiving a request for the manifest file from a user device. The video is encoded at different reference bitrates and each encoded reference bitrate is divided into segments to generate video segment files. The manifest file includes an ordered list of universal resource locators (URLs) that reference a set of video segment files encoded at a particular reference bitrate. A source manifest file that indicates the set of video segment files is identified based on the request. An issued manifest file that includes a first URL and a second URL is generated based on the source manifest file. The first URL references a first domain and the second URL references a second domain that is different from the first domain. The issued manifest file is transmitted to the user device as a response to the request.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a wireless device and a cellular base station to support common analog beam steering for band groups. The wireless device may provide an indication of analog beam steering capability of the wireless device to the cellular base station. For example, the wireless device may support a limited number of analog beams for each of one or more band groups. The cellular base station may select beam configuration information for the wireless device based at least in part on the indication of analog beam steering capability of the wireless device. This may include selecting a common beam for multiple component carriers for the wireless device based on the wireless device's analog beam steering capability. The cellular base station may provide the beam configuration information to the wireless device.

Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and systems including a syringe for delivering a fluid. The syringe includes a syringe body, a piston, an insert, and a removable plunger. The piston is located in a lumen of the syringe body such that a bottom of the piston together with interior walls of the syringe define a working volume. The piston comprising a cavity. The insert is located at a desired position in the lumen. The insert narrowing the lumen and being configured to prevent retraction of the piston beyond the desired position. The removable plunger is configured to removably couple to the piston. The removable plunger includes a tip configured to couple with the cavity of the piston and move the piston when a force is applied at the plunger, and to decouple from the piston when the piston engages the insert at the desired position.

Abstract: A gap blocking system includes a loading platform having a gap separating a first portion of the loading platform from a second portion of the loading platform. A ride vehicle is coupled to a transport extending through the gap. The gap blocking system also includes a panel assembly coupled to the loading platform and comprising a plurality of panels, wherein each panel of the plurality of panels is coupled to a respective biasing mechanism coupled to the first portion of the loading platform and configured to bias each panel towards a closed configuration in which each panel extends radially away from the first portion of the loading platform.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for configuration of multiple power distribution units (PDUs) in an efficient manner. Power distribution units may be discovered on a network, and automatically configured according to a configuration defined for a particular location. A location may be, for example, a geographical region, a data center, a zone within a data center, a cabinet, or an individual PDU. All PDUs associated with a particular location may be provided with a common configuration file that defines operating parameters for the PDUs. In such a manner, a user may simply connect the PDU to the network, with the appropriate configuration provided without additional involvement of the user.
