Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention relate generally to systems and methods for the collection of solar energy and the use thereof to generate an algal biomass capable of producing biofuels. In one implementation, the specific irradiance (e.g., moles photons per gram per day) is controlled to optimize algal growth and the production of polar lipids, non-polar lipids, and proteins. Optionally, non-photosynthetic portions of the light spectrum are diverted for uses other than illumination of the algae and/or are shifted in wavelength to fall within the photosynthetic spectrum
Abstract:
An exemplary computer enclosure for detachably coupling an external device to the computer enclosure by a cable includes a receiving cavity, a interface device, and a cable guide member. The receiving cavity is configured for receiving a portion of the cable. The interface device is movably received in the receiving cavity. The interface device defines at least one port for coupling the cable thereto. The cable guide member is located adjacent to the receiving cavity, and the cable guide member supports the cable that extends from the at least one port.
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods and compositions for production of algal-based medium chain fatty acids and hydrocarbons. More specifically, the invention relates to a Nannochloropsis algal strain and mutants that produces high amounts of C16 fatty acids and hydrocarbons.

The present invention is directed toward methods for treating, inhibiting the progression of or eradicating polycystic kidney disease in a mammal in need thereof by providing a cMET inhibitor.
Abstract:
An ultrasonic test apparatus includes a container containing de-ionized water, a pressing member, a supporting member, and a fixing member. The limiting member, the loading member, and the cover member are disposed in the de-ionized water. The fixing member tightly fixes the pressing member and the supporting member together for mounting at least part of integrated circuits to be detected between the pressing member and the supporting member.
Abstract:
A resilient-loaded connector, which includes a receptacle and an adapter. The receptacle has a body and a center contact received inside the body. The adapter has a plug that includes a body and a central contact mounted in the body with an insulator being interposed. The body of the receptacle has an internal surface including a first tapered surface, a second tapered surface and a cylindrical surface between the first and second tapered surfaces. The adapter also includes a resilient structure. The central contact of the plug of the adapter has at least one slot that is configured to cooperate with the central contact of the receptacle. The central contact of the receptacle is for instance received inside the central contact of the plug.

Abstract:
A projector includes a main body emitting light beams from a front end to form an image, a supporting member for supporting the main body, the supporting member is pivotally mounted to a side wall of the main body, so that the main body may tilt with respect to the supporting member to obtain an adjusted position to project the image, and a fastening member fastening the supporting member on the side wall at the adjusted position. A supporting structure thereof is also provided.
