Abstract:
A game bird decoy provides for more natural kinematics by providing a smoothly articulating neck, an automatic orientation of the neck with respect to body tipping and improved dual-mode wing activation in which the wings may lift or lift and extend as a function of body angle.
Abstract:
The invention provides a method of isolating one or more compounds present in fruit juice or seed extracts that have anti-microbial activity.
Abstract:
This invention provides methods of making and using a fluorescent probe from the Sandercyanin protein as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 or SEQ ID NO: 2. In one embodiment, the invention provides a method of creating a fluorescent probe, comprising the steps of attaching a Sandercyanin moiety to a probe, wherein the probe is specific to a desired target.

Abstract:
A medical crutch having a number of bends in the frame for redistributing the amount of pressure applied to a user's hand, arm, and axilla. The frame has a first jog outwardly sidewards relative to a user's body and a second jog outwardly forward relative to the user's body. The frame may attach an adjustable handle, forearm rest and underarm support, among other attachments. The frame is adapted to fit all average sizes by adjusting the positions of the attachments.

Abstract:
Lipid particles, methods of generating same, and methods of using same. The lipid particles can be made from milk fat. The methods of generating the lipid particles can include melt fractionating milk fat, combining the melt-fractionated milk fat with a surfactant, obtaining the lipid particles by emulsifying the combined melt-fractionated milk fat and surfactant, and optionally, autoclaving the lipid particles. The methods of using the lipid particles can include parenterally administering the lipid particles to a subject in, for example, parenteral nutrition.
Abstract:
A composite material includes biodegradable and/or renewable materials such as purified milk protein recovered as a byproduct in cheese making processes. The result is a material suitable for three-dimensional (3D) printing and extrusion based polymer processing, with improved properties but that is still environmentally friendly. Purified milk protein may be used to produce composite thermoplastic materials or resins. Additional chemical modification may improve the blending of purified milk protein.
Abstract:
A solar water heater absorber absorbs the sun's energy on the surface of a twin-walled polycarbonate panel and conducts the heat from the sun through the panel wall into fluid flow through channels of the panel. The panel is an extruded polycarbonate glazing material that consists of two panes connected by longitudinal ribs to form a plurality of water channels that may further include twisted strips providing a helical water flow pattern that increases turbulence within the water channels. The panel is connected to large pipes or headers on the top and bottom ends of the panel that receive the heated fluid from the water channels, allow the heated fluid to exit the panel, and for return water to re-enter the panel in a solar water heating system.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides a method of isolating one or more compounds present in fruit seed extracts that have anti-ty-rosinase or whitening activity, compositions having one or more fruit seed extracts that have anti-tyrosinase or whitening (lightening) activity.
