  • Publication number: 20090072955
    Abstract: Wearable coin-sized sensory devices, and related systems and methods, providing immediate wireless notification of activities occurring on separate electronic devices, such that the invention can be worn in contact or near contact with the user's skin, which does not require the user to replace, reconfigure or retrofit items already possessed by the user and worn on the body, and which does not disturb others in the vicinity of the user. When one of the designated separate electronic devices not actually held in the user's hand or face-to-face with the user, e.g., emits a wireless signal as a result of an occurrence on such separate electronic device, the invention senses such wireless signal and immediately produces a tactile indication, silent or near-silent, to the user. The invention is merely coin-sized and thus can be versatility attached or affixed to items in contact or near contact with the user's body in multiple ways.

  • Publication number: 20060180609
    Abstract: The present invention provides apparatus and methods for collecting a plurality of measured quantities of a powdered material and dispensing each of the measured quantities to, for example, a multi-well vessel. Vacuum is used to collect the powdered material and at least one of gravity, a gas push, or a physical push is used to dispense the powdered material. Apparatus and methods of the invention are particularly useful for collection and delivery of powdered materials in high throughput chemical synthesis and biological assay environments where accurate measurement and dispensing of powders is critical.

  • Publication number: 20050226786
    Abstract: A multi-well assembly according to one embodiment comprises a multi-well block and a guide plate. The multi-well block defines a plurality of wells, with each well having a fluid-impermeable bottom surface. The guide plate defines a plurality of fluid passageways corresponding to the wells of the multi-well block. The guide plate is configured such that, whenever the guide plate is registered with the multi-well block, fluid communication is established between each well and an associated fluid passageway. The guide plate enables iterative chemical or biological processes using multiple multi-well blocks. A seal plate is configured to cut fluid communication conferred by the guide plate via registration with the guide plate, or via registration with the multi-well block (once the guide plate is removed). The seal plate allows iterative chemical or biological processes within a single multi-well block.

  • Publication number: 20050073068
    Abstract: A laminated film in which a metal foil is sandwiched between two polymeric films is cold formed to define one or more blisters, and the base of the blister stamped with indicia, in two discrete stages. The blister is formed in the first stage using a standard technique of advancing a pin in a direction transverse relative to the plane of the film. According to the invention, once the blister forming stage is completed, indicia are stamped into the base of the blister in the second stage by advancing a die from one side thereof to clamp the blister base against a mold held against the other side. The direction of the die and disposition of the die and mold may be selected such that the indicia project inwardly or outwardly from the blister base.

  • Patent number: 6726928
    Abstract: A process for the preparation of a rapidly disintegrating dosage form a pharmaceutically active substance which has an unacceptable taste wherein there is formed a solution or a suspension in a solvent of a form of the pharmaceutically active substance which is less soluble in water and more palatable than the form with the unacceptable taste together with a water-soluble or water-dispersible carrier material. Discrete units of the suspension or solution are formed and the solvent is removed from the discrete units under conditions whereby a network of the carrier material carrying a dosage for the less soluble and more palatable form of the pharmaceutically active substance is formed.
