Inventor: SHIMADA JUN
IPC: H02J13/00
Filed: 2010-04-30
Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for collecting waveform data for a plurality of appliances that may be found in a residential or commercial setting using multi-port outlet monitoring devices to obtain power consumption profiles that indicate power consumption on a per-appliance and/or per-location basis and/or per user basis. The plurality of appliances is reliably identified from the power consumption profiles. In accordance with a method embodiment, waveform data transmitted from an unknown appliance is independently metered via a multi-port monitoring device over an elapsed time period. The metered waveform data is wirelessly transmitted from the multi-port monitoring device to a co-located system controller which constructs an appliance signature. The process may be repeated to generate multiple appliance signatures. The one or more appliance signatures are compared to a database of pre-stored canonical signatures to determine if there is a match to identify the appliance.

Abstract: Targeting of imaging probes specifically to diseased tissues such as cancer is attractive because it potentially allows the improvement of tumor detection. One of the problems associated with conventional, low molecular weight imaging probes is the limited tumor: background ratio. To circumvent this, imaging probes may be conjugated to polymeric carriers to target solid tumors by either passive accumulation of macromolecules into tumor tissues due to the "enhanced permeability and retention" effect (EPR effect) or active targeting through the incorporation of cell-specific recognition ligands that mediate binding to cancer-specific antigens. This invention describes an innovative targeting strategy for the selective delivery of diagnostic agents into solid tumors by means of polymer-NIR fluorochrome conjugates modified with targeting ligands that bind to antigens or receptors that are uniquely expressed or over-expressed on the target cells relative to normal tissues.
