Abstract: Methods, systems, and storage media client-to-client message synchronization are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: in response to an indication of a state change for a state of an account on a first device being received through a user interface of the first device, receive the indication of the state change from the first device at a second device; update a state of the account on the second device based on the indication of the state change for the account on the first device; and cause display of a view of the user interface of the messaging application on the second device reflecting the updated state of the account on the second device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for spraying a liquid treatment solution include a syringe attachment device and a handheld device. The syringe attachment device can be configured to secure a syringe containing the liquid treatment solution. The handheld device can have a movable slide configured to dispense the treatment solution from the syringe. The spray deposition system can include a cover' positioned to provide an impervious barrier between at least a portion of the syringe attachment device and the handheld device. The cover can be attached to the syringe attachment device prior to coupling the devices together. In an example, the cover can have a generally tubular shape with a closed end and an open end. The handheld device can be inserted into the cover and the cover can enclose the handheld device in the assembled position. In an example, the cover can be sterile and at least a portion of the syringe attachment device can be sterile.

Abstract: Systems and methods for spraying a liquid treatment solution can include a syringe attachment device and a handheld device, which are configured to be coupled together in an assembled position of the system. The syringe attachment device can be configured to secure a syringe containing the liquid treatment solution. In an example, the treatment solution can include autologous skin cells for treating a tissue wound. The handheld device can have a movable slide configured to dispense the treatment solution from the syringe. In an example, the spray deposition system can include a cover positioned to provide an impervious barrier between at least a portion of the syringe attachment device and the handheld device. The cover can be attached to the syringe attachment device prior to coupling the devices together. In an example, the cover can have a generally tubular shape with a closed end and an open end.

Abstract: The present invention provides a spray deposition system which comprises a syringe attachment device having a specific adaptor. The adaptor has at least three openings being in fluid connection with each other, wherein at least one first opening of the adaptor is connectable to a needle in a liquid-tight manner, at least one second opening of the adaptor is in fluid connection with surrounding air and at least one third opening of the adaptor is connected to a tube configured to deliver an air flow in a reversible and air-tight manner. Thereby, a connection to a needle is possible in a reversible and liquid-tight manner without having to pierce the tube of the system like in prior art solutions. This provokes that no tube material may clog the needle and no air may leak from the tube. Furthermore, an attachment of the needle to the spray deposition system may be performed faster and safer and alignment of the needle is facilitated.

Abstract: The invention relates to a disposable apparatus for sterile handling of an unsterile reusable apparatus is provided. The disposable apparatus comprises a film with a sterile upper side and an underside and at least one adaptor with a sterile upper side and an underside, wherein the sterile upper side of the adaptor is suitable for receiving a sterile application device. The inventive apparatus is characterised in that the underside of the adaptor forms an irreversible and air-tight connection with the upper side of the film. In addition, a device for sterile application and a method for sterile covering of unsterile reusable apparatus are presented.

Abstract: A bond pad structure has a first conductive layer and an anti-reflective coating layer disposed on the first conductive layer. The first conductive layer includes first and second portions (which could be formed by etching). Part of the first portion is exposed within a bond pad opening, and the second portion is electrically connected to an integrated circuit. The anti-reflective coating layer also includes first and second portions (which could be formed by etching). The first portion may be located near the bond pad opening, and the second portion may be located farther away from the bond pad opening. A second conductive layer electrically connects the first and second portions of the first conductive layer. In this way, the first portion of the anti-reflective coating layer may undergo oxidation without leading to oxidation of the second portion of the anti-reflective coating layer.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for applying a plasma etch process to facet a masking layer in a semiconductor device by creating sloped surfaces in the masking layer. The masking layer is plasma etched with a plasma that has a high sputter etch component. The plasma etch process removes material from vertical edges of the masking layer to form a sloped surface at each vertical edge of the masking layer. A layer of conductive material is then applied to the masking layer. When the layer of conductive material is subsequently removed by an overetch process the sloped profile of the masking layer facilitates the removal of stringers of conductive material without using an excessively lengthy overetch.
