Abstract: The invention relates to wireless biotelemetry of low level bioelectric and biosensor signals by means of directly modulating the backscatter of a resonant circuit. Low level electrical analog or digital signals are directly applied to a resonant circuit containing a voltage-variable capacitor such as a varactor diode, that proportionally shifts the resonant frequency and so amplitude of radiofrequency backscatter in a way that represents analog bioelectric or biosensor waveform data. By strongly driving the resonant circuit with a radiofrequency source, a voltage variable capacitance can be caused to amplify the bio-signal level by a parametric process and so provide sufficient sensitivity to telemeter for low millivolt and microvolt level signals without additional amplification. A feature of the device is its simplicity and that it accomplishes both modulation and preamplification of low level sensor signals by the same variable capacitance circuit which reduces the device size and power consumption.

Abstract: A method for generating electrical current using a fuel cell includes flowing a first flow that includes a fuel and an electrolyte through a first channel. The fuel is oxidized at an anode to generate electrons for conduction to a load and oxidation products that remain in the first flow. The method includes flowing a second flow that includes an oxidizer and an electrolyte through a second channel that is open to the first channel. A cathode receives electrons from the load and the oxidation products, and the oxidizer is reduced to form reduction products and complete an electrochemical circuit. The plurality of exchange zones are positioned and the flows are oriented within their respective first and second channels such that the first and second flows contact one another intermittently at the exchange zones to enable transport of the reduction and oxidation products to the anode and cathode.

Abstract: As the richest source of astaxanthin, a natural antioxidant and coloring agent, the unicellular green alga, Haematococcus pluvialis, is being commercially exploited. A major constraint in the Haematococcus production system, however, is the thick, rigid cell walls associated with astaxanthin-rich cysts (or aplanospores). The thick walls prevent the extraction of cellular materials and consequently reduce the bioavailability of astaxanthin. Using a physical, chemical, or enzymatic method to disrupt the cell wall has proven to be very expensive and also introduce the risk of oxidation of astaxanthin by atmospheric oxygen The present invention provides a novel method for solving this problem by introducing two genetically modified Haematococcus pluvialis mutants. These two mutants, named as D 13-17 and N54-22, contain remarkably reduced amounts of cell wall materials, but retain the growth potential and ability to accumulate astaxanthin as high as the wild type strain. Organic solvent extraction efficiency assay has demonstrated that cellular astaxanthin can be more effectively and efficiently extracted from the cell wall-deficient mutants than from the wild type, suggesting that the mutants may provide better bioavailability of astaxanthin to humans and animals. The said mutants can be used for production of natural astaxanthin for human and animal consumption

Abstract translation: 作为天然抗氧化剂和着色剂的虾青素最丰富的来源，单细胞绿藻，红球藻（Haematococcus pluvialis）正在商业上被利用。 然而，血球菌生产系统的主要制约因素是与富含虾青素的囊肿（或淀粉孢子）相关的厚而刚性的细胞壁。 厚壁防止细胞材料的提取，从而降低虾青素的生物利用度。 使用物理，化学或酶学方法破坏细胞壁已被证明是非常昂贵的，并且还引起大气氧氧化虾青素的风险本发明提供了一种通过引入两种遗传修饰的红潮球菌（Hematococcus pluvialis）来解决这个问题的新方法 突变体。 这两个突变体，命名为D 13-17和N54-22，含有显着减少的细胞壁材料，但保留生长潜力和积累与野生型菌株一样高的虾青素的能力。 有机溶剂提取效率测定表明，从野生型中可以更有效地从细胞壁缺陷突变体提取细胞虾青素，这表明突变体可以提供更好的虾青素对人和动物的生物利用度。 所述突变体可用于生产天然虾青素用于人和动物消费

Abstract: A method of analysing a sample includes providing a first part of the sample and a second part of the sample. A first analysis is conducted on the first part of the sample and the results of the first analysis are considered. A second analysis is conducted on the second part of the sample, the second analysis being conducted according to a procedure using a value for each of one or more characteristics of the procedure. The consideration of the results of the first analysis is used to determine whether the value for one or more of the characteristics of the procedure is changed to a different value. The second analysis is started before the results of the first analysis are obtained.
