Abstract: A soft and stretchable microelectrode array (sMEA) including a first circuit board having a first though hole; a second circuit board having a second through hole; a microelectrode array including a plurality of microelectrodes embedded in an elastomeric substrate, wherein the microelectrode array is disposed between the first and second printed circuit boards, and includes an exposed portion corresponding the first and second through holes; a plurality of contact pads formed on a top or bottom surface of the first printed circuit board and electrically connected to the plurality of microelectrodes; and a culture well mounted on the first printed circuit board and encompassing the first through hole. Further, the exposed portion of the microelectrode array includes a 3D pocket lined with stretched microelectrodes for electrically stimulating and recording signals from an organoid placed in the 3D pocket.

Abstract: A suspension assembly includes at least one suspension arm having a suspension joint structured to vary the height of a vehicle dependent on the operative orientation of the suspension arm and suspension joint when connected to the vehicle. The suspension joint includes two bushing members each formed of a resilient material and two retaining assemblies, wherein each retaining assembly is disposed in a retaining relation to a different one of the two bushing members on opposite sides of one end of the suspension arm. Either each of the bushing members or each of the two retaining assemblies includes a first section and a second section being of different, predetermined thicknesses. While the suspension arm and suspension joint may be produced as equipment of original manufacture, a conventional suspension arm may be repaired or retrofitted by replacing its original suspension joint with a modified suspension joint.

Abstract: A suspension assembly structured to facilitate a selective variance in a height of a vehicle including at least one suspension arm having a suspension joint structured to vary the height of the vehicle dependent on the operative orientation of the suspension arm and suspension joint when connected to the vehicle.
