The present invention provides methods, apparatuses and kits for determining the presence and the concentration of nanoparticles in a given area, solution or region via cellular uptake and/or adsorption monitored through laboratory equipment. For example, the present invention provides a method of quantifying one or more nanoparticles by incubating a nanoparticle solution comprising one or more nanoparticles with one or more cells; isolating the one or more cells; lysing the one or more cells to release a cell lysate; separating the cell lysate electrophoretically on a gel; digitizing the gel to form a gel image; quantifying the nanoparticle intensity in the gel image; and correlating the nanoparticle intensity to a cell-associated nanoparticle concentration.

Cancer markers may be developed to detect diseases characterized by increased expression of apoptosis-suppressing genes, such as aggressive cancers. Genes in the human chromosomal regions, 8q24, 11q13, 20q11-q13, were found to be amplified indicating in vivo drug resistance in diseases such as ovarian cancer. Diagnosis and assessment of amplification levels certain genes shown to be amplified, including PVT1, can be useful in prediction of poor outcome of patient's response and drug resistance in ovarian cancer patients with low survival rates. Certain genes were found to be high priority therapeutic targets by the identification of recurrent aberrations involving genome sequence, copy number and/or gene expression are associated with reduced survival duration in certain diseases and cancers, specifically ovarian cancer. Therapeutics to inhibit amplification and inhibitors of one of these genes, PVT1, target drug resistance in ovarian cancer patients with low survival rates is described.
摘要:
A coupled electrochemical system for its use is disclosed, where a polyol feed, especially a biomass polyol containing feed is reduced in a reducing solution including HI and a metal ion capable of converting I2 to HI during polyol reduction to hydrocarbon or iodohydrocarbon products and where the metal ions are capable of electrochemical reduction so that the system can be run on a batch, semi-continuous or continuous basis. The system is capable of producing hydrocarbon solvent, fuels and lubricating oils.
摘要:
An apparatus to detect particulate matter. The apparatus includes a sensor electrode, a shroud, and a heater. The electrode measures a chemical composition within an exhaust stream. The shroud surrounds at least a portion of the sensor electrode, exclusive of a distal end of the sensor electrode exposed to the exhaust stream. The shroud defines an air gap between the sensor electrode and the shroud and an opening toward the distal end of the sensor electrode. The heater is mounted relative to the sensor electrode. The heater burns off particulate matter in the air gap between the sensor electrode and the shroud.
摘要:
A mobility apparatus for a patient permitting improved mobility is disclosed. The apparatus includes a frame assembly, a locomotion assembly, a forearm support assembly, a kinematic and kinetic feedback assembly and optionally a back support assembly, where the apparatus provides mobility assistance, while permitting visualization of movement velocity, loaded and unloaded motion, and other information concerning a patients proper use of the mobility assistance apparatus.
摘要:
A method for providing fault tolerance to multiple computer servers is disclosed. Basically, t backup computer servers are utilized to back up data from multiple active computer servers such that up to t faults can be tolerated. Data from the active computer servers are categorized under their respective data structure accordingly. In response to any access to data within one or more of the active computer servers, backup operations are performed on the accessed data in the t backup computer servers according to their data structures such that data with similar data structures are grouped under their respective fusible data structure within the t backup computer servers.
