    摘要: Properties such as toxicity of substances may be determined by assaying properties, fates and effects of substances in an ex vivo metabolically active human organ or tissue under normothermic perfusion with a fluid containing a test substance. The data can be used as, for example, part of a submission to a government regulatory organization. Preferred methods use perfused endocrine gland organs or tissues to evaluate hormone or other bodily chemical disruption caused by substances and pre-donation diseased or injured organs or tissues.

    摘要: A cannula includes a first circumferential portion, a second circumferential portion, and a seal with a first clamping surface. The first circumferential portion and the second circumferential portion are configured to mutually cooperate to support a circumference of vasculature, and form a second clamping surface. The first clamping surface and the second clamping surface are configured to cooperate to secure an end of the vasculature.

    摘要: Products, methods and systems for teaching various educational subjects, such as reading, mathematics, music, geography, to young children. In one exemplary embodiment, a method for teaching beginning reading to a beginning reader in a classroom setting, includes (a) providing one or more of a picture or game to a beginning reader, the one or more of a picture or game including a pictorial representation of a first learning object, (b) pronouncing to the beginning reader the picture or game, the pronouncing emphasizing with intonation single sound phonetically representative of the beginning letter of the object displayed on the picture or game. The method also includes repeating steps (a) and (b) to the student for a plurality of pictures or games having pictorial representations of objects other than the first learning object. The method further includes the step of asking the beginning reader to name the object, the student pronouncing with exaggerated intonation the single sound phonetically representative of the beginning letter of the object on the picture or game, and determining whether the beginning reader correctly pronounced the beginning letter.

    摘要: A temperature sensor for monitoring an organ or tissue is configured to measure a temperature inside of a container configured to contain the organ or tissue. The temperature sensor is disposed exterior to the organ container and the temperature sensor is a non-contact temperature sensor. The temperature sensor may be part of an apparatus for perfusing, transporting, and/or storing an organ or tissue. A coolant container may have an aperture through which the temperature sensor measures a temperature of at least one of the organ or tissue or a perfusate fluid surrounding the organ or tissue. The temperature sensor is preferably an infrared temperature sensor. Multiple temperature sensors may be provided that measure the temperature organ or tissue or perfusate fluid surrounding the organ or tissue, for example in case one of the temperature sensors fails.

    摘要: Methods of isolating cellular products, such as pancreatic islets, may be used in diabetes research and therapeutic transplantation. The methods may involve providing a donor tissue having desired cells and undesired cells, perfusing the donor tissue with a perfusion solution, developing edema during perfusion of the donor tissue to form a swelled tissue, and separating the desired cells from undesired cellular material to obtain a cellular product. The methods may also include disrupting the tissue, and separating the desired cells from undesired cellular material to obtain the cellular product. The methods may result in an increased yield of cellular product that retains sufficient functional integrity to be useful as a transplantation resource.

    摘要: A network processor includes a schedule, sync and order (SSO) module for scheduling and assigning work to multiple processors. The SSO includes an on-deck unit (ODU) that provides a table having several entries, each entry storing a respective work queue entry, and a number of lists. Each of the lists may be associated with a respective processor configured to execute the work, and includes pointers to entries in the table. A pointer is added to the list based on an indication of whether the associated processor accepts the WQE corresponding to the pointer.
