  • Patent number: 12005448
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that utilize metal nanostructures that are synthesized in situ along the internal surfaces of a microfluidic device. The nanostructures are formed by initial deposition of metallic seeds followed by flowing growth and reducing agent solutions into the capillaries/microfluidic channels to grow the nanostars. The nanostructures may optionally be functionalized with a capture ligand. The capture ligand may be used to selectively bind to certain cells (e.g., circulating tumor cells). The cells may be removed by a beam of light (e.g., laser beam) that induces localized heating at the surface location(s) containing the nanostructures. The plasmonic nature of the nanostructures can be used to heat the nanostructure(s) locally for the selective removal of one or certain cells. The nanostructures may be used to acquire Raman spectra of molecules or other small objects that are bound thereto for identification and quantification.

  • Patent number: 11987399
    Abstract: An offshore rocket transport and launch method includes S1: assembling a rocket horizontally; S2: loading the assembled rocket as a whole into a transport cage; S3: transporting, by a transport vehicle, the transport cage loaded with the rocket to a wharf by land horizontal transport; S4: transferring the transport cage loaded with the rocket to a transport ship, and transporting the transport cage loaded with the rocket to an offshore rocket launch pad by sea transport; S5: hoisting, by a hoisting device, the transport cage loaded with the rocket to the rocket launch pad; S6: opening the transport cage, transferring the rocket to a launching position, and hoisting the transport cage away from the rocket launch pad; and S7: launching the rocket. The method effectively facilitates the offshore rocket transport and launch process, and prevents the rocket from being affected by the external environment during the launch process.

  • Publication number: 20220375037
    Abstract: An image processing method includes converting an original image represented by a first color space into the original image represented by a second color space, where a correlation between color components of respective channels in the second color space of the original image is smaller than a correlation between color components of respective channels in the first color space; denoising channel images formed by the color components of the respective channels in the second color space respectively to obtain denoised images corresponding to the respective channel images; and obtaining a target image based on the denoised images.

  • Publication number: 20190126171
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a gas-liquid separator, including a body enclosing a cavity; a gas outlet attached to the top of the body and communicated with the cavity; a liquid outlet attached to the bottom of the body and communicated with the cavity; and an input tube constructed to include a curve shape extending outside the body and communicated into the cavity from the external of the body. The gas-liquid separator of the present invention has got the advantages of a simple structure, easy manufacturing, convenient mounting, and the like, and can separate a gas-liquid two-phase mixture efficiently, thus providing a purer gas flow and a purer liquid flow for downstream processing apparatuses and improving the overall efficiency of the system.
