Title: A gamma sterilizable rfid system that prevents unauthorized operation of associated disposable bioprocess components
Inventor: NYFFELER MANUEL
IPC: G06F17/00
Filed: 2008-08-20
Abstract: This invention provides a system and apparatus that is able to authenticate and prevent illegal manufacturing and unauthorized operation of disposable bioprocess components. This invention utilizes a ferro-electric random access memory (FRAM) chip to store error-correctable information on a RFID tag attached to the disposable bioprocess components, where the error-correctable information is written into the memory chip, so that the information can remain in the chip when the RFID tag and disposable bioprocess component is gamma-sterilized. Also, this invention includes a method for authenticating the disposable bioprocess component that reduces liability in that a counterfeit poor quality disposable component is not used on the hardware so the user will not file an unjustified complaint.

Abstract: The present invention describes product and analysis method for analysis of a substance, a virus, a bacteria or a cell which binds to carbohydrate structures. One or more carbohydrates, or carbohydrate derivatives, is bound to spherical or non-spherical polymer beads (for example microspheres or nanospheres). Formed carbohydrate-polymer beads or carbohydrate-polymer particles, can bind to with more or less specific affinity to the substance, bacteria, virus or cell which shall be detected.  The carbohydrate beads is contacted with a sample containing the substance, bacteria, virus or cell (completely or partially isolated, or not purified, in a non-diluted or diluted solution).

Abstract: In vitro diagnosis/prognosis method and kit, for assessment of tolerance in liver transplantation. The present invention refers to the study of peripheral blood transcriptional patterns from 80 liver transplant recipients and 16 non-transplanted healthy individuals employing either oligonucleotide microarrays and/or quantitative real-time PCR to design a clinically applicable molecular test. This has resulted in the discovery and validation of several gene signatures comprising a modest number of genes capable of identifying tolerant and non- tolerant recipients with high accuracy. The marker genes are KLRF1, SLAMF7, NKG7, IL2RB, KLRB1, FANCG, GNPTAB, CLIC3, PSMD14, ALG8, CX3CR1, RGS 3.  Multiple peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets contribute to the tolerance-associated transcriptional patterns with NK and .gamma.delta T cells exerting a predominant influence.  The invention concludes that transcriptional profiling of peripheral blood can be employed to identify liver transplant recipients who can discontinue immunosuppressive therapy and that innate immune cells are likely to play a major role in the maintenance of operational tolerance in liver transplantation.
