| 8143231 | Method of reducing HIV-replication in human body tissue Mononuclear phagocytes are reservoirs, vehicles of dissemination, and targets for persistent HIV infection. However, not all MP population equally support viral growth. Such differential replication is typified by the greater ability of placental macrophages (PM), a... | 03/27/2012 |
| 8104358 | High sensitivity passive wireless strain sensor A high sensitivity strain sensor that utilizes a micro-scale cavity built in a multi-layer structure, with a pair of interdigitalized capacitor incorporated on one of the layers, is described in this document. The device's capacitance changes produced by unattended ... | 01/31/2012 |
| 8101783 | Titanium-maltol compound and method of synthesizing the same A novel compound showing anti-tumor properties was synthesized by reacting Cp2TiCl2 with maltol (3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyrone) and a pH of 5.4, leading to a complete replacement of Cp and chloride ligands affording, Ti(maltolato)2(OH)... | 01/24/2012 |
| 7807137 | Iron-based contrast agent A contrast agent having a metal core and an inert shell forming a single cluster is disclosed. The metal core is iron-based and has an octa-nuclear structure. It is surrounded by a cluster of pyrazolate groups. Ligands can be attached to the cluster to provide water... | 10/05/2010 |
| 7528060 | Branched nanostructures and method of synthesizing the same A branched nanostructure is synthesized. A porous material, with pores having a diameter of approximately 1 μm or less, is placed in a vacuum. It is irradiated with an electron beam. This causes a trunk to grow from the porous material and further causes branches t... | 05/05/2009 |
| 7427654 | Degradable polymides Degradable polyimides are prepared in high yield by polymerizing a monomer containing at least two anhydride groups, and a monomer containing at least two primary amine groups and at least one acidic group, in bulk or in a solvent. The polyimides are very strong in ... | 09/23/2008 |
| 7361643 | Methods for inhibiting angiogenesis A method for inhibiting angiogenesis, including: administering a nucleoside, such as tunicamycin, in an amount effective to inhibit angiogenesis, to a patient in need of such treatment. A method for inhibiting angiogenesis, including: administering a nucleoside, whi... | 04/22/2008 |
| 7160575 | Conducting polymer Measurement in the frequency range 3 mHz–106 Hz of the dielectric characteristics of emeraldine base polyaniline dissolved in 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP) and cast into bulk free-standing polymer films shows features similar to those reported by others and which... | 01/09/2007 |
| 7157144 | Giant remnant polarization in laser ablated SrBiNbOthin films on Pt/TiO/SiO/Si substrates SrBi2Nb2O9 (SBN) thin films are deposited on Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates using off-axis pulsed laser deposition technique. Off-axis laser ablation avoids plasma damaging of the surface of SBN thin films and is favorable to grow films ... | 01/02/2007 |
| 7081371 | Fabrication of stable, wide-bandgap thin films of Mg, Zn and O A stable, wide-bandgap (approximately 6 eV) ZnO/MgO multilayer thin film is fabricated using pulsed-laser deposition on c-plane Al2O3 substrates. Layers of ZnO alternate with layers of MgO. The thickness of MgO is a constant of approximately 1 ... | 07/25/2006 |
| 7052677 | Substituted octanuclear pyrazolato clusters with electron transfer and MRI contrast agent properties The present invention is directed to an Fe(III) complex comprising a redox-active metal cluster in a chemically inert shell. The inventive complex has electron transfer and paramagnetic properties. ... | 05/30/2006 |
| 6799464 | Macroscopic model of scanning force microscope A macroscopic version of the Scanning Force Microscope is described. It consists of a cantilever under the influence of external forces, which mimic the tip-sample interactions. The use of this piece of equipment is threefold. First, it serves as direct way to under... | 10/05/2004 |
