Disclosed herein is a molecular imprinted protective face mask comprising a supportive structure, a surface material that receives and retains a molecular imprint and that is positioned to contact airborne molecules during use, a molecular imprint of a bioactive molecule wherein an imprinted cavity is at least one of a bioactive molecule with a molecular configuration that captures a specific airborne and/or microdroplet-borne molecule and a protein with a binding site that captures a specific molecule.

System for molecular imprinted protective face mask

Disclosed herein is a molecular imprinted air filter for removing, detecting and/or reporting specific agents and/or molecules and comprising one or more air-permeable layers of molecular imprinted material positioned to contact molecules and/or agents in an airborne, and/or microdroplet-borne environment, a bioactive molecular imprint of a molecule that captures a specific airborne, fluid borne, and/or microdroplet-borne molecule, particle, or agent, and an electronic enhancement.

Provided herein are an apparatus, system, and method for a medical diagnostic and imaging forceps for determining the pathology of tissue in vivo during surgery, endoscopy, laparoscopy, or other medical procedure, the forceps comprising a platform for analyzing tissue pathology inside the body by way of sensors including without limitation conductivity, optical, tracking, and x-ray sensors.

Apparatus, system and method for diagnostic imaging forceps

An system, and method are disclosed for harmonic modulation of standing wavefields for spatial focusing, manipulation, and patterning of particles, cells, powders, aerosols, colloids, and solids using a multifrequency wave source, a chamber a control module and an analysis module to generate standard wavefields useful for tissue engineering, micro fabrication, therapeutic treatment, and diagnostic tests.

System and method for harmonic modulation of standing wavefields for spatial focusing, manipulation, and patterning

An apparatus, system, program product, and method are disclosed for determining the microstructure and properties of materials using acoustic signal processing. An apparatus includes a one or more sensors for sensing information describing a multiphase material using sound waves. The apparatus includes a processor operably coupled to the one or more sensors and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The code is executable by the processor to receive sound-wave input from the one or more sensors, perform one or more quantitative analyses on the received sound-wave input in the frequency domain, and determine a microstructure of the multiphase material based on results from the one or more quantitative analyses.

Determining the microstructure and properties of materials using acoustic signal processing

An apparatus includes an XY scanning mechanism, a first transducer configured to transmit a sound wave, a second transducer configured to receive the sound wave, and a tray configured to hold a material. The tray is coupled to the XY scanning mechanism and located beneath the first transducer and the second transducer is located on a bottom side of the tray below the material. The tray is moved in an XY pattern along an X axis and a Y axis in response to an XY scanning mechanism controller mechanically moving the XY scanning mechanism while the first transducer is positioned in a stationary location along a vertical axis perpendicular to the tray. The first transducer transmits sound waves into the material and the second transmitter receives the transmitted sound waves at each XY position.

An apparatus is disclosed for a biofunctional molecular imprint apparatus comprising a supportive structure that cuts, punctures, retains, repairs, protects, interrogates, and/or supports the function of a body tissue or other substance; a surface material that receives and retains a molecular imprint and that is positioned to contact the body tissue or other substance during use; and a molecular imprint of a bioactive molecule that influences blood coagulation, tissue damage, pain, immune response, inflammation, infection, healing, tissue regeneration, cell adhesion, the formation of extracellular matrix, tumorigenesis, angiogenesis, bacterial growth, and/or side effects.

An equatorial sundial according to this invention includes a dial surface and an elongated, rod-like gnomon fixedly secured in operative relation thereto. The dial surface is generally semi-cylindrical and concave toward the sun. The circumferential portion of the surface is further formed in the shape of a partial helix. The gnomon lies on the axis of the dial surface such that the longitudinal extent of the surface is transverse of the gnomon at an obtuse angle thereto. In a given geographical location, the sundial is so oriented relative to the earth that the gnomon is parallel to the earth's axis of rotation. With a proper pitch of the helical form of the dial surface, the opposite end portions thereof are offset in a direction parallel to the axis of the gnomon so that neither shade the dial surface either in the morning or evening.

Equatorial sundial

An adjustable loom comprising a first adjustable rectangular frame having two spaced, parallel, elongated, rigid uprights of substantially equal length. The uprights are longitudinally hollow. Two rigid, elongated, parallel extending leg members of substantially equal length are rigidly secured at the ends thereof to the lower ends, respectively, of the uprights. The leg members extend orthogonally from the uprights in the same direction. The leg members are also hollow. A first horizontal bar is rigidly secured at the opposite ends thereof to one side of the lower portions, respectively, of said uprights thereby providing a rigid framework of said uprights, leg members and bar. A second rectangular upright frame having two rigid frame elements telescoped into said uprights, respectively, has an elongated, horizontal bar rigidly secured at the opposite ends thereof to the upper ends of the frame elements. Means are provided for adjustably positioning the frame elements in the uprights with said two bars being maintained parallel and horizontal. The first and second bars are mounted on the same sides of the frame elements and uprights.
