Abstract:
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for production of nanostmctures using a plasma generator. In an embodiment, a system for use with a reactor for synthesis of nanostmctures may include a chamber defining a pathway for directing a fluid mixture for the synthesis of nanostmctures through the chamber. The system may further include one or more heating zones disposed along the chamber to provide a temperature gradient in the chamber to form catalyst particles upon which nanostmctures can be generated from the components of the fluid mixture. The system may also include a plasma generator for generating a plasma flame in a conduit through which the fluid mixture may be passed to decompose a carbon source in the fluid mixture into its constituent atoms before proceeding into the reactor for formation of nanostmctures.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of promoting hair growth comprising administering a fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) extracellular domain (ECD), including native FGFR3 ECDs, variants, fragments, and fusion molecules, to a subject in an amount sufficient to promote hair growth.
Abstract:
An evacuation system includes at least one fluid intake, at least one fluid outlet, at least one operational component, such as an evacuation motor, and a first read/write device for transmitting, receiving, or storing information. The evacuation system also includes a filter having a second read/write device (23) for transmitting information to the first read/write device (21). A microcontroller (11), which is in functional communication with the first read/write device and the operational component, interprets the information received by said first read/write device and controls the operational component based on said interpreted information.
