Dry powder inhalers include: (a) a first generally planar spiral travel path in an inhaler body, wherein the first spiral travel path has a plurality of adjacent curvilinear channels forming lanes with upstanding sidewalls, including an inner lane and an outer lane; and (b) a plurality of discrete sealed microcartridges with substantially rigid bodies disposed in the first travel path, each comprising a pre-metered (typically dose) amount of dry powder, the microcartridges being configured to slidably advance along the first travel path toward an inhalation chamber that merges into an inhalation output port. In operation, at least one microcartridge is held in the inhalation chamber to release the dry powder therein during inhalation.

Systems and methods for storing and processing trading records are disclosed. The records may be arranged so that a single processor read operation reads multiple values. The records may also be arranged in a substantially sequential non-indexed collection and stored in a solid state memory module, such as a cache memory of a processor. A computer device may be configured to access the non-indexed collection of trading records and perform operations such as matching trades, recreating the state of an order book or analyzing trading records.

Pharmaceutical dry powder containers adapted for use in an inhaler and associated inhalers and kits thereof include at least a pair of cooperating generally tubular members, including an inner member and a generally tubular outer member sized and configured to slidably receive the inner member. In operation, at least one of the inner or outer members slide relative to the other to release a pharmaceutical dry powder.

Curled decorative grass having a variety of configurations and methods for making such decorative grass is provided which, because of its increased bulk, can also be used as a packing material, an animal bedding, cat litter, mulch for soil and a media for plants. The curled decorative grass is produced by curling a substantially flat sheet of material and thereafter cutting the resulting curled sheet of material, or by cutting a pre-curled material.
摘要:
An over-voltage protection system including a phase bus connected to a phase conductor of an electrical system and one or more transient-suppressing lines connected to the phase bus. Each of the transient-suppressing lines includes a contactor and a transient-suppressing element. The contactor of each transient-suppressing line is selectively opened and closed by a processor, thereby protecting the transient suppressing element from excessive currents. Also a method of protecting at least one transient-suppressing element from over-voltage conditions including providing a transient-suppressing line including the at least one transient-suppressing element in parallel with a load, measuring at least one of a voltage signal representative of a voltage on the transient-suppressing line and a current signal representative of a current on the transient suppressing line, and selectively placing the transient-suppressin line in either an open condition or a closed condition based on at least one of the voltage signal and the current signal.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods and apparatuses for cell separation. In particular, the invention relates to separation of a particular cell type from a mixture of different cell types based on the differential rolling property of the particular cell type on a substrate coated with molecules that exhibits adhesive property with the particular cell type. This technology is adaptable for use in implantable shunts and devices for cell trafficking or tumor neutralization.
摘要:
A system and method of preparing a transfer document for a client to transfer financial services using a first account to use a second account, the method comprising the steps of: (i) preparing a transfer document to effect transfer of the financial services, each transfer document identifying at least the service to be transferred, the client, the second account, the desired date for the transfer and providing authorization from the client; and (ii) including on said transfer document of a replica of an account document, with choice of said account document determined according to the financial service being transferred and the second account.
