Abstract: A method and device for preferentially delivering a compound such as an antigen to the cytosol of an immune cell. The method comprises passing a cell suspension comprising the target immune cell through a microfluidic device and contacting the suspension with the compound(s) or payload to be delivered.

Abstract: A microwave oven (2) with a full glass door (12) for preventing microwave leakage from the cooking cavity (6) of the microwave oven (2) is provided. The front plate (8) of the cooking cavity (6) has a conductive material (10), such as a rubber with conductive filler. The inner glass surface (16) of the door (12) has a conductive coating that creates a ground loop with the conductive material (10) on the front plate (8) of the cooking cavity (6) to prevent microwave leakage from the cooking cavity (6).

Abstract: A microwave oven includes a housing defining an interior cavity, a magnetron positioned within the housing and outside of the interior cavity and a micro-wave antenna in electrical communication with the magnetron and positioned adjacent a lower surface of the interior cavity. The microwave oven further includes a heating plate that includes a glass-ceramic substrate defining at least a portion of the lower surface of the interior cavity. The heating plate further includes a resistive-heating coating applied on a portion of the glass-ceramic substrate and defining at least one open micro-wave transmissive path from the micro-wave antenna to the interior cavity.

Abstract: A cooking appliance includes a bottom plate and a turntable. The bottom plate defines an aperture that receives the turntable such that the turntable is flush-mounted with the bottom plate to provide a floor of a cooking cavity as substantially continuous. A rotary hub engages with an underside of the turntable to transmit rotational motion to the turntable from a motor. The turntable includes a first material and the bottom plate includes a second material.

Abstract: A manufacturing process for brassiere, and especially for a brassiere of front clasp type, comprises a step of left side forming, a step of right side forming, a step of rear piece forming, and a step of joining. Both left part and the right part of the brassiere are integrally formed with a bra cup, an edge piece, and a shoulder band by way of the plastics or the rubber being treated injection molding or vacuum forming respectively. A clasp device is provided to engage the bra cups with shoulder bands having engaging device for engaging the rear piece. Both ends of the rear piece are joined to both the edge pieces respectively.
