Abstract: An electrochemical cell and battery system including cells, each cell including a catholyte, an anolyte, and a separator disposed between the catholyte and anolyte and that is permeable to the at least one ionic species (for example, a metal cation or the hydroxide ion). The catholyte solution includes a ferricyanide, permanganate, manganate, sulfur, and/or polysulfide compound, and the anolyte includes a sulfide and/or polysulfide compound. These electrochemical couples may be embodied in various physical architectures, including static (non-flowing) architectures or in flow battery (flowing) architectures.

Abstract: Methods of inducing an immune response comprising at least two administrations of an adjuvanted immunogenic composition, wherein the second administration contains reduced amounts of antigen and adjuvant.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for a sterilizable image manipulation device to be used in medical procedures. An orientation of the sterilizable image manipulation device may be determined and synchronized with an orientation of a virtual object. A change in the orientation of the sterilizable image manipulation device may be represented as a change in the orientation of the virtual object.

Abstract: An annular radioisotope target and method therefor that includes an inner cladding tube and a helical coil-shaped foil ribbon disposed over the inner cladding tube. The helical coil-shaped foil ribbon has a first end, a second end, a first edge and a second edge. An outer cladding tube is disposed over the helical coil-shaped foil ribbon and inner cladding tube, and end caps are attached to the outer cladding tube and the inner cladding tube.
