摘要:
A system includes a storage device for storing details of a plurality of reservations of a hospitality establishment. A particular reservation includes a registered device setting for affecting behavior of a computer network at the hospitality establishment toward a user device having a specified device identifier. The system further includes a clock unit for tracking time, and a system controller coupled to the computer network and having access to the storage device and the clock unit. The system controller automatically configures one or more network components of the computer network when a start time of the particular reservation is reached in order to activate the registered device setting, and automatically configures the one or more network components when an end time of the particular reservation is reached in order to deactivate the registered device setting.

A pressure indicator for cuffed tracheal tubes is provided. This indicator uses an indicator balloon on the proximal end of the inflation lumen and in fluid communication with the tracheal tube cuff. As the pressure in the cuff changes, the balloon will inflate and deflate. An indicator needle rests on the balloon and moves in response to the inflation and deflation of the balloon, thus showing the state of inflation of the cuff.

A disposable absorbent garment has barrier elements on its inner liner to form barriers to flow of urine across the liner surface. In one embodiment, the barrier elements are loops formed by rows of slits through the liner material, such that the slits form rows of strips. Central portions of the strips are forced out of the plane of the liner to form wide based loops or humps on the inner surface of the garment when the garment is in place about the body of a wearer. These elevated loops form rows of raised obstructions that act as urine flow interference barriers. In other embodiments, the loops are preformed on the surface of the liner layer, or are formed from interdigitating strips. The loops are preferably provided in a target area of the garment where urine impinges the liner surface. Garments intended to be worn by males may have the loops distributed primarily throughout a front crotch region, to interfere with the substantially tangential movement of urine across the liner layer. The garment diminishes leakage of urine out of the waistband of the garment, and inhibits migration of liquid waste within the diaper. Apertures formed under the loops provide an opening through which liquid waste enters the interior of the garment.

The present invention includes a microneedle assembly having a support that includes a first surface and a second surface, the second surface further including a slanted surface. A plurality of microneedles are provided which project outwardly from the second surface of the support. A pathway through the microneedle assembly is formed and includes an aperture extending between the first surface of the support and the second surface of the support, a channel disposed on the exterior surface of at least one microneedle, the channel having a surface, the channel being in alignment with at least a portion of the aperture to form a junction through which fluids may pass.

A packet transmitted on a network is read and decoded. A network device and its operating system are identified by analyzing the decoded packet. If more than one operating system is identified from the decoded packet, the operating system is selecting by comparing confidence values assigned to the operating systems identified. A service running on the network device is identified from the decoded packet or subsequent packets that are read, decoded and analyzed. The network topology of a network is determined by reading, decoding, and analyzing a plurality of packets. A flow between two network devices is determined by reading, decoding, and analyzing a plurality of packets. Vulnerabilities are assigned to operating systems and services identified by reading, decoding, and analyzing packets. Network configuration policy is enforced on operating systems and services identified by reading, decoding, and analyzing packets.

The invention provides materials and methods for modulating adenoviral tropism for hepatocytes and other cell types such as splenocytes. It relates to the findings that hypervariable regions (HVRs) of the viral hexon protein interact with the Gla domain of the blood clotting factor FX as part of the infective process in vivo. The invention provides means to disrupt the interaction between hexon and FX, thus reducing infection of hepatocytes and splenocytes, as well as use of targeting agents comprising the Gla domain or a fragment thereof to direct adenoviral vectors to desired target cell or tissue types.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for depositing particulate matter onto a supply of absorbent core fibrous substrate material are disclosed. The apparatus has a feed tray that has an inlet for receiving a supply of particulate matter. At least part of a lower pan of the feed tray is a slideable shuttle pan that has an outlet edge located near a supply of absorbent core fibrous substrate material that is moving in a machine direction. The supply of particulate matter passes over the outlet edge to exit the feed tray. A mechanism operates the shuttle pan through a range of motion having a forward stroke and a backward stroke. During the forward stroke, the outlet edge follows the supply of absorbent core fibrous substrate material.

The present invention generally relates to a method and apparatus for forming an absorbent garment and an absorbent composite core. The absorbent composite core preferably is comprised of at least four layers, whereby two of the layers are outer layers, (an upper layer and a lower layer), one of the inner layers is a central fibrous layer containing a mixture of tow fibers and SAP, and the other inner layer is at least one layer selected from an acquisition layer, a distribution layer, an additional fibrous layer optionally containing SAP, a wicking layer, a storage layer, a dryness layer, a softness layer, or combinations and fragments thereof.
