Systems and methods relating to utilizing plant shoot-to-root temperature differentials alone or in conjunction gas mixture humidity about a plant shoot to improve plant bast fiber growth; the timing, sequence, and range of shoot-to-root temperature differentials selected during plant development utilized to modify and improve plant bast fibers for industrial, scientific, and medical use.

Cultivation systems and methods for improvement of plantof plants from the family

A method of improving the growth of plants belonging to the family Cannabaceae sensu stricto by providing a plant nutrient solution about the plant roots and a gas mixture circulating about the plant shoot; by selecting the gas mixture and plant nutrient solution temperature independently of the other; and providing a plant nutrient solution to gas mixture temperature differential of approximately 0&#xb0; F. or of at least approximately 15&#xb0; F. during different phases of plant development, in order to change the plant development to improve a desired plant organ for industrial, scientific, and medical purposes. Infection of plants byandare treated or prevented by selecting a gas mixture temperature that is approximately 65 to 85&#xb0; F. and a plant nutrient solution temperature that is approximately 35 to 65&#xb0; F.

[object Object]

A medical device that is wirelessly powered by a resonant magnetic field, the device automatically coupling to a power transmitter in a control unit when brought within a threshold radius. In one embodiment, the control unit automatically identifies the medical device and automatically adjusts its settings to control the medical device, where the device and power transceivers may be provided detachable from either or both the endoscope/camera and camera control unit or may be provide integral to either one or both.

Wirelessly powered medical devices and instruments

A method of humanely incapacitating or immobilizing a human or animal by providing a formulation including a cannabinoid rendering a recipient incapacitated or immobilized within a short period of time, and a delivery system which doses the recipient with the formulation resulting in a tetrahydrocannabinol blood level of above at least approximately 1-250 milligrams per milliliter of whole blood for incapacitation, or at least approximately 250-500 milligrams per milliliter of whole blood for immobilization, and below a dosage which causes irreparable harm to or the death of the recipient. Providing a delivery system to induce an incapacitating or immobilizing dose of the formulation at a distance. Providing a formulation including an antipsychotic to prevent or mitigate any violent psychosis of the recipient. Providing the formulation which induces a lethal cannabinoid blood level in the recipient which causes the death of the recipient within a humane period of time after formulation administration.

Cannabinod formulation for the sedation of a human or animal

A medical device that is wirelessly powered by a resonant magnetic field, the device automatically coupling to a power transmitter in a control unit when brought within a threshold radius. In one embodiment, the control unit automatically identifies the medical device and automatically adjusts its settings to control the medical device.

A system for wirelessly powering various devices positioned on an endoscope, including, for example, a light source, various electronics including an imager and/or a memory device. The endoscope is coupled to a camera where the endoscope may be rotated relative to the camera when coupled thereto. The system is further provided such that video signal processing parameters are automatically set for an endoscopic video camera system based upon characteristics of an attached endoscope, with reduced EMI and improved inventory tracking, maintenance and quality assurance, and reducing the necessity for adjustment and alignment of the endoscope and camera to achieve the data transfer.
