Abstract: Described in certain example embodiments herein are methods of isolating exosomes from a biological fluid, such as those containing caseins.

Abstract: An aircraft includes external structures, and one or more thermal emitters integrated with one or more of the external structures. The one or more thermal emitters are configured to generate heat to deice the one or more external structures. The one or more thermal emitters are configured to receive electrical power from one or more of an auxiliary power unit of the aircraft, a power distribution system of the aircraft, one or more engines of the aircraft, or an external power cart that is separate and distinct from the aircraft.

Abstract: An interactive toy comprising a function device for performing user-perceptible, controllable functions. The interactive toy also includes a rechargeable power source and a charging circuit for contactless receipt of electrical energy and for charging the rechargeable power source when the interactive toy is positioned in a charging zone of a contactless charging device. The interactive toy is adapted to determine a charging rate at respective positions relative to the charging device and to generate a user-perceptible output indicative of the determined charging rate.

Abstract: Described herein are compositions and formulations to treat and/or prevent a PI3K mediated disease or a symptom thereof in a subject in need thereof. In some embodiments, such compositions include engineered peptides capable of targeting PI3K or Connexin 43. Also described herein are methods of treating and/or preventing PI3K mediated disease or a symptom thereof. In some embodiments, the PI3K mediated disease is a cancer.

Abstract: A system for automatic handling and sorting of narrow-slit rolls. Wherein the system is also capable of preventing toppling of the narrow-slit rolls.

Abstract: A manual glass lathe used for shaping and coloring clear glass tubes. The manual glass lathe, in the preferred embodiment, comprises a tubular handle, designed to be held in one hand, and a thumbwheel located towards the working end of the handle, and is used by a glass-blower to precisely control the spin of a glass workpiece and the proximity of the workpiece to a flame and to various shaping tools and/or fuming rods. The handle makes use of an interior arrangement of bearings and o-rings to center and hold the mandrel, and also comprises an inner sleeve used as an inertial weight to enhance spinning momentum. Also a method for using such a manual glass lathe to shape and fume glass workpieces.
