Abstract: A method of inducing multinucleated myotube formation is provided. The method comprising contacting myogenic precursor cells from a farmed animal with an Extracellular Regulated Signaling Kinase (ERK1/2) inhibitor and/or an upregulator of intracellular Ca 2+ and/or RXR/RAR agonists, enhancing fusion and myogenic maturation.

Abstract: A connector connection indicator is mounted in a Luer male connector, or in a Luer female connector, to indicate proper mating of the two Luer connectors. The connection indicator may be or include a light source, a sound producing device (e.g., buzzer), a switch, a tactile connection indicator or an electronic chip. The electronic chip may be interposed between two conductive elements that are mounted in the Luer female connector. When the two Luer connectors are properly engaged, the electronic chip is powered via two electrical terminals. While the electronic chip is powered up it communicates with an external system via two electrical terminals. The external system interprets the communication with the electronic chip as an indication to proper engagement of the two Luer connectors. Some of the connection indicators may be mounted on a circuit board that is embedded in a void in the Luer male connector.

Abstract: A satellite communications system comprising a Hub station and a plurality of terminals, the system is configured to utilize a FWD link and a RTN link in accordance with adaptation techniques for relevant transmission properties (e.g. modulation, coding, transmission power, etc.) and to use adaptive margins to ensure proper reception of transmitted information under various link conditions. Methods are presented for determining said adaptive margins in real time or substantially in real time, and for setting relevant transmission properties in accordance with the determined margins. Adaptive margins may be determined either directly or following the determining of a link state for each of the FWD link and the RTN link.

Abstract: A system and method to enable realistic augmented reality 2D or 3D audiovisual imagery, integrating virtual object(s) and audio source data in the vicinity of a user/wearer of a head-mounted device (HMD), the HMD integrated with a mobile communication device. The system includes a HMD to facilitate enhancement of the user/wearer's audiovisual capabilities, a mobile communication device integrated with the HMD. The system also includes a dedicated system mounted on the HMD and comprising at least an embedded software solution, at least four (4) miniature speakers mounted on the HMD and configured to optimize the audio provided to the user/wearer and an inertial measurement unit (IMU) mounted on the HMD for processing the data on and through the speakers according to the data imputed to the software instructions, thereby providing realistic sound in the HMD and anchoring of sounds deriving from virtual objects in the real world.
