The nanoparticles are formed of a metallic material and have surface modifications that impart water-dispersibility to the nanoparticles. The nanoparticles may be any of the various types of radiopaque water-dispersible metallic nanoparticles tha t are known in the art. The nanoparticles may be adapted to facilitate clear ance through renal filtration or biliary excretion. The nanoparticles may be adapted to reduce tissue accumulation and have reduced toxicity in the huma n body. The nanoparticles may be applied directly onto the medical device, e .g., as a coating, or be carried on the surface of or within a carrier coati ng on the medical device, or be dispersed within the pores of a porous layer or porous surface on the medical device. The medical device itself may be b iodegradable and may have the nanoparticles embedded within the medical devi ce itself or applied as or within a coating onthe biodegradable medical devi ce. The nanoparticles may be released by diffusion through the carrier coati ng, disruption of hydrogen bonds between the nanoparticles and the carrier c oating, degradation of the nanoparticle coating, degradation of the carrier coating, diffusion of the nanoparticles from the medical device, or degradat ion of the medical device carries the nanoparticles.
Patent CA-2667379-A1 (CA)
Title: Metering and pumping devices
Inventor: KHOSHNEVIS BEHROKH
IPC: F04B27/08
Filed: 2007-11-01
Abstract: The present disclosure presents several embodiments for metering devices some of which also have pumping capability. The devices utilize one or more pistons located within a cylindrical rotor. As the cylindrical rotor is turned by a suitable torque/power source, a first face of each piston is exposed to an inlet supplying a fluid to be metered. The piston is then moved within the associated channel or bore within the rotor, allowing the volume of the channel to be filled with fluid. The continuing rotation of the rotor then removes the piston from the fluid supply and moves the channel through an angular displacement. The piston is then moved - either through applied power for active pistons or the force of the fluid supply for passive pistons - in the opposite direction, forcing the fluid out of the channel. In this way, a precise amount of fluid can be metered from each channel.

Title: Absorbent articles with replaceable core component having fluid partitioning characteristics and method for evaluating such characteristics
Inventor: HIRD BRYN
IPC: A61F13/49
Filed: 2007-11-07
Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve fluid partitioning characteristics of removable and replaceable absorbent core components used with disposable absorbent articles. A replaceable core component can be constructed to have fluid partitioning characteristics that reduce the need to replace the chassis of the absorbent article as often as well as providing comfort to the wearer. The more fluid a replaceable core component absorbs and extracts from the chassis results in correspondingly less fluid that will remain in the chassis when the replaceable core component is removed and replaced. The ability of a replaceable core component to absorb and extract fluid from the chassis of an absorbent article may be evaluated by measuring the fluid partitioning values of the replaceable core component and absorbent article. Fluid partitioning values provide an indication of the percentage of a quantity of fluid discharged into the chassis that is absorbed by the replaceable core component.

Title: System and method for managing network connectivity disruptions in a multi-homed upnp device
Inventor: CHAN CATHY
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2007-11-30
Abstract: A system and method for minimizing interactions between a multi-homed device and associated control points in the event that the multi-homed device experiences connectivity disruptions in some, but not all, of its network interfaces. In various embodiments, a new optional header to the SSDP:byebye message format. The new header allows a multi-homed device to signal its continuous availability to compatible control points, despite the need to send SSDP:byebye messages, update its BOOTlD value and re-advertise itself to address a network issue it experienced elsewhere. The use of this new header indicates to control points unaffected by the disruption that they can continue to utilize the device and its associated services regardless of these SSDP messages.

Patent CA-2676576-A1 (CA)
Title: System and process for converting non-fresh water to fresh water
Inventor: ROSENBAUM ITZHAK
IPC: C02F1/00
Filed: 2009-09-09
Abstract: A method of converting seawater, waste water, brackish water and polluted water to fresh water, referred to as "The Rosenbaum-Weisz Process", is disclosed. This method utilizes high temperature electrolysis to decompose the treated non-fresh water into hydrogen, oxygen. The generated hydrogen and oxygen are then combusted at elevated pressure in a high temperature combustor to generate high pressure high temperature superheated steam. The combustion of hydrogen and oxygen at elevated high pressure will prevent air from entering the combustor thereby preventing the creation of nitrous oxide ("NOX") that might otherwise be created as a result of the high temperature created by the combustion. The combustion of oxygen and hydrogen will generate high pressure high temperature superheated steam. The heat from the high pressure high temperature superheated steam is then removed by a high temperature heat exchanger system and recycled back to the high temperature electrolysis unit. The superheated steam will condense, as a result of the heat extraction by the heat exchanger system, to produce fresh water.
