  • Magnetic apparatus and methods of use
    Patent number: 10695036
    Abstract: Provided herein is a magnetic apparatus for collecting superparamagnetic particles from a subject. The superparamagnetic particles are previously injected into the subject and have ligands bound thereto that are specific for one or more non-cell biomarkers. In one embodiment, the superparamagnetic particles are injected into and retrieved from a cavity such as a joint cavity. These compositions and methods allow for the sequestration and removal of inflammatory mediators, as both a diagnostic of the local immune response and a therapeutic that can reduce inflammation in the local disease environment.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 15, 2016
    Date of Patent: June 30, 2020
    Assignee: UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA RESEARCH FOUNDATION, INC.
    Inventors: Kyle Douglas Allen, Jon Paul Dobson, Elena Georgina Yarmola, Zachary Kaufman, David P. Arnold
  • PFM power management system with autonomous mode switching
    Patent number: 10423174
    Abstract: A pulse frequency modulated (PFM) voltage converter autonomously switches between buck, buck-boost, and boost modes as a function of the input and output voltages. The voltage converter may also switch autonomously between buck mode and a low drop out (LDO) mode when configured in a system in which the battery voltage is known to always be higher than the output voltage.
