Abstract:
Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) are immune cells that have left the bloodstream and migrated into a tumor. TILs have been used in autologous adoptive transfer therapy for the treatment of cancer. Disclosed are methods for rapidly expanding tumor infiltrating lymphocytes using digested tumor cells.
Abstract:
A signal transmission system including a first transducer mounted to a surface of a member, a second transducer movable into contact with a second surface of the member, a material disposed between the second transducer and the second surface of the member. A method for communicating acoustic energy through a member including pressing a second transducer to a second surface of the member, the member having a first transducer mounted to an opposite surface thereof, sandwiching a material between the second transducer and the second surface of the member, and transmitting a signal between the first transducer and the second transducer.
Abstract:
A process for the manufacture of a prepreg comprising feeding a layer of unidirectional conductive fibers having a defined width, bringing into contact with a first face of the fibers a first layer of resin comprising thermosetting resin, and compressing the resin and fibers together by passing over one or more impregnation rollers, wherein the pressure exerted onto the conductive fibers and resin does not exceed 40 kg per centimeter of the width of the conductive fibers, and the resin being in sufficient amount for the resin to enter the interstices of the fibers and leave a first outer layer of resin essentially free of unidirectional conductive fibers.
Abstract:
A curable flexible electromagnetic hazard resistance laminate, comprising a layer of electrically conductive metal material and thermosetting resin, wherein an external face of the laminate comprises a releasable backing sheet in contact with resin, and the laminate further comprises a substantially non-reshapable sheet of solid material.
Abstract:
A media processing system provides services for metadata-seeking behavior. The system includes a memory that stores executable instructions and a processor that executes the executable instructions. The system also includes a receiver that receives, based on a person initiating capture of source input in seeking metadata for an object associated with the source input, source input from a requesting device used by the person to initiate the capture of the source input in the metadata-seeking behavior. Ultimately, content is dynamically identified for presentation to the person.
Abstract:
Information is arranged within a predetermined shape. The predetermined shape is captured in an image taken by a tangible image-capturing element of a device which captures images at the direction of a user. The device includes a tangible processor that analyzes the image captured by the image-capturing element to determine whether a predetermined shape is present in the image. The tangible processor determines an alignment of the predetermined shape when the predetermined shape is present in the image, and reads data within the predetermined shape in accordance with the determined alignment. The device automatically forwards a request for content over a communications network in accordance with the data read within the predetermined shape. The device receives the content over the network and displays the content.
Abstract:
A curable flexible electromagnetic hazard resistance laminate, comprising a layer of electrically conductive metal material and thermosetting resin, wherein a first external face of the laminate comprises a releasable backing sheet in contact with resin, and a second external face of the laminate comprises resin, wherein the second external face has greater adhesiveness than the first external face with the backing sheet removed.
Abstract:
A curable prepreg or semipreg material comprising a layer of fibres and a substantially non-flowable curable resin having a layer of porous sheet material on an outer surface, the material allows automatic lay-up of high fibre content prepregs or semiprepregs typically used in industrial applications such as wind turbine blades.
Abstract:
A prepreg comprising a structural layer of packed unidirectional conductive fibres comprising thermosetting resin in the interstices, and a first outer layer of resin comprising thermosetting resin, and being essentially free of unidirectional conductive fibres, which when cured under elevated temperature, produces a cured composite material comprising a cured structural layer of packed unidirectional conductive fibres and a first outer layer of cured resin comprising unidirectional conductive fibres dispersed within.
Abstract:
Molding material that includes a layer of fibrous reinforcing material having one surface on which a first layer of a resin partially impregnates the fibrous material and a further resin layer located on the opposite surface which retains in position surface fibers of the fibrous material. The further resin layer is of lower weight than the first layer and is formed as an openwork structure with a solid part and spaces through which the fibrous material is exposed.
