Title: Method of quantifying the cell-binding properties of a medical device
Inventor: ZACOUR MARY
IPC: G01N33/569
Filed: 2005-05-02
Abstract: The invention provides a method for quantifying the cell-binding properties of a medical device. In practicing the method, a medical device having at least one type of binding agent is incubated with cells expressing a ligand having an affinity for the binding agent on the medical device. The cells that bind to the medical device are labeled with at least one marker. The marker is detected, and the quantity of cells bound to the medical device is determined.  Alternatively, labeled cells having at least one type of ligand expressing an affinity for the at least one type of binding agent may be provided that are incubated with the medical device. The relative expression of the ligand on the cell line having an affinity for the binding agent is also determined. The method can be used to assess, in vitro, how well cells will bind to the medical device, thereby providing useful insight as to the effectiveness of the medical device to promote cell adherence to the device, prior to in vivo implantation of such devices.

Abstract: Dans le domaine de marché de prestations de services, la promenade de chiens se développe activement.   Que ce soit un professionnel ou un particulier, lorsqu'une personne promène plusieurs chiens elle se retrouve avec plusieurs laisses en mains, ce qui limite les mouvements du promeneur tout comme ceux des chiens. Les différentes laisses s'emmêlent régulièrement, le promeneur a les mains pleines, et lorsqu'il souhaite libérer un des chiens, son autre main est totalement bloquée par les autres laisses.   La présente invention, notre harnais "Promeneur pour Chiens - Système Mains Libres" ("Hands Free - Walking Dogs") remédie à tous ces inconvénients tout en permettant de promener 6 chiens, Le harnais promeneur pour chiens s'enfile aisément, il est ajustable et se règle facilement pour offrir un confort optimum à tout gabarit de personne. Il offre la possibilité de fixer 6 laisses détachables, reliées à la ceinture de manière sûre et solide par 6 mousquetons qui se libèrent d'une simple pression d'un doigt, permettant ainsi d'isoler ou de libérer un chien à tout moment, tout en gardant toujours les mains libres.   Il permet d'éviter les emmêlements de laisses et offre donc un confort au promeneur tout autant qu'aux chiens.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method of making multilayered constructions useful in forming capacitors and resistors, which may be used in the manufacture of printed circuit boards and microelectronic devices. According to the inventive method, a thermosetting polymer layer or layers are attached directly onto a heat resistant film layer, specifically on the side(s) of the heat resistant film to be attached to an electrically conductive layer having an electrical resistance material layer thereon. Attaching the adhesive to the heat resistant film rather than the electrically conductive layer streamlines the manufacturing process, particularly in the formation of the electrical resistance material layer onto the electrically conductive layer. This also results in better precision and uniformity of the multilayered construction.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for alleviating congestion of a wireless medium used by an access point (AP) and a plurality of wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) is disclosed. If congestion is determined to exist on the wireless medium, a determination is then made as to whether there are any low priority traffic streams established between the AP and at least one of the WTRUs. If there are no low priority traffic streams established between the AP and at least one of the WTRUs, selected ones of the associated WTRUs are disassociated with the AP based on the amount of time spent by the WTRUs trying to transmit and retransmit unacknowledged packets or on a specific traffic stream access category. If low priority traffic streams have been established, the packet transmission delay associated with the low priority traffic streams is increased when congestion exists. Otherwise, the packet transmission delay is decreased.
