Title: Control device for wall-mounted rocker switch
Inventor: GRAY ROBERT C JR
IPC: H01H43/10
Filed: 2008-06-05
Abstract: A control device that can be mounted against the face plate of a rocker switch automatically operates the rocker switch in accordance with at least one predetermined program.  The device also allows the predetermined program to be overridden to manipulate the switch as desired without removing the device. The device includes a controller for activating the device according to parameters of the predetermined program; a power component that is responsive to the controller; and a rotating member that is rotated by the power component with respect to the switch. The rotating member includes an inclined plane extending from a surface thereof and adapted to abut the rocker. When the inclined plane abuts a first portion of the rocker, the switch is placed in an opened position, and when the inclined plane abuts a second portion of the rocker, the switch is placed in a closed position.
Patent CA-2633654-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ZASLAVSKY BORIS Y
IPC: G01N33/68
Filed: 2006-12-19
Abstract: The present invention is generally related to the separation, fractionation, and/or characterization of molecules and/or biomolecules in one or more mixtures. After fractionation, different phases of a partitioning system can be analyzed via an analytical technique such as spectral analysis, chromatography, or the like, to produce a spectrum or other symbolic representation of the species after fractionation, and the spectra of the various fractions/phases compared to define a comparative spectrum as a marker or otherwise providing information about the sample, including such information that is independent of the original level of abundance of the molecules in the mixture. Comparative spectra of various samples can be compared to each other and/or to controls or reference spectra and/or comparative spectra to determine a variety of information. In some embodiments, the methods can be used for discovering and/or identifying patterns in a mixture of species and/or corresponding patterns of species in a second mixture, where each mixture of species originates from biological systems with different physiological conditions as markers associated with specific diagnostics, and can be used for screening for such markers once discovered and identified during diagnostics screening.

Title: Electrogenic pump molecule control
Inventor: CHEN WEI
IPC: C07C2/00
Filed: 2007-02-28
Abstract: Activation of electrogenic pump molecules can be realized by a dynamic entrainment procedure which includes two steps: synchronization of individual pump molecules to work at the same pumping pace, and gradual modulation of the synchronization frequency. We studied synchronization of the Na/K pump molecules in a physiological running mode by applying the concept of an electronic synchrotron to the biological system. Both theoretical analysis and experimental results showed that individual Na/K pump molecules can be synchronized by a well designed oscillating electric field. The synchronized pump currents show separated inward and outward pump currents and a magnitude ratio of 3:2 reflecting stoichiomatric number of the pump molecules.
