Inventor: EYER MARK
IPC: H04N5/445
Filed: 2012-08-22
Abstract: A method, computer program, reception apparatus, and information providing apparatus for providing one or more virtual channel tables corresponding to one or more content sources. The reception apparatus includes an input unit and a processor. The input unit receives a channel selection from a user. The processor determines a source of content associated with the channel selection based on at least one virtual channel table stored in a memory. Based on the determined source of content, the processor controls a first communication interface to receive first content or a second communication interface to receive second content. The processor controls the first communication interface to receive the first content when the selected channel is determined to be associated with a first source, and controls the second communication interface to receive the second content when the selected channel is determined to be associated with a second source.

Filed: 2012-09-14
Abstract: Polyvalent nanoconjugates address the critical challenges in therapeutic use. The single-entity, targeted therapeutic is able to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and is thus effective in the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Further, despite the tremendously high cellular uptake of nanoconjugates, they exhibit no toxicity in the cell types tested thus far. This property is critical for therapeutic agent delivery applications for reducing off-target effects.

Patent CA-2865535-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ANAND SUSHANT
IPC: F03D11/00
Filed: 2012-06-13
Abstract: The articles and methods described herein provide a way to manipulate condensation on a surface by micro/nano-engineering textures (102) on the surface and filling the spaces between the texture features (102) with an impregnating liquid (106) that is stably held therebetween or therewithin. The articles and methods allow droplets of water, or other condensed phases (101), even in micrometer size range, to easily shed from the surface, thereby enhancing contact between a condensing species and the condensing surface. It has been found that dropwise condensation is enhanced by the use of an impregnating (secondary) liquid (106) that has a relatively high surface tension, and, even more preferably, an impregnating liquid that has both a high surface tension and a low viscosity.
