Abstract: An antenna structure and method is disclosed. A feed line is electromagnetically coupled to a conductive resonator. Further a faraday cage is operable to shield the conductive resonator and the feed line. The faraday cage comprises an electromagnetically-shielding ground plane coupled to a plurality of conductive strips by at least one conductive via.

Abstract: The present invention includes compositions and methods to deliver carbon nanostructures that include agents for delivery to cells, wherein the carbon nanostructure and the agent are made soluble by coating the carbon nanostructure with one or more polymers, e.g., low band gap conductive polymers.

Abstract: Procedures and vectors are provided for the specific alteration of particular genetic loci in eukaryotic cells. One procedure comprises the utilization of ATG-minus fluorescent protein gene targeting (AMFP) DNA vectors for the purpose of creating and identifying cells which have vector sequences integrated into the host cell genome via site-specific homologous recombination. The procedure also comprises the utilization of sequences encoding in vivo detectable markers for the identification of cells which have exogenous vector sequences integrated into the genome of the host cell, either via site-specific homologous recombination or nonhomologous recombination or insertion. The invention also includes vectors for creating modifications in eukaryotic cells. In addition, the invention includes cells and organisms generated from cells with specific genetic alterations through the implementation and use of provided procedures and vectors.

Abstract: Procedures and vectors are provided for the specific alteration of particular genetic loci in eukaryotic cells. One procedure utilizes fluorescence-probe-in-cell (FPIC) gene targeting DNA vectors for the purpose of creating and identifying cells which have vector sequences integrated into the host cell genome via site-specific homologous recombination. The procedure also utilizes sequences encoding in vivo detectable markers for the identification of cells which have exogenous vector sequences integrated into the genome of the host cell, either via site-specific homologous recombination or nonhomologous recombination or insertion. In addition, cells modified using a FPIC vector, and organisms generated from such cells, are provided.

Abstract: An abrasive article comprising an abrasive fabric comprising a fabric having discrete areas of electro-deposited metal extending on or therethrough and having abrasive material embedded in the metal, a layer of adhesive, and a backing substrate, the abrasive fabric being bonded to the backing substrate by the layer of adhesive, characterized in that either (i) the surface of the abrasive fabric bonded to the backing has been roughened and/or (ii) the layer of adhesive comprises an epoxy-acrylate thermosetting adhesive.

Abstract: A method for making a spirally wound endless coated abrasive belt comprising an abrasive layer bonded to a backing laminate material comprising a flexible support and a hot-melt adhesive layer.

Abstract: This invention provides a method for making a coated abrasive belt having a backing comprising a hot-melt adhesive throughout the length of the belt. The splice of the coated abrasive belt made by the method has substantially the same thickness, density, and flexibility as the remainder of the belt.
