    摘要: An improved method and apparatus for delivering medication to the lungs is described. Acoustic ink printing technology is modified to operate as an inhaler that generates tiny droplets near a patient's nose or mouth. The tiny droplets are easily carried by air currents into the patient's lungs. The inhaler itself is preferably a battery operated portable device that can be easily carried and easily cleaned to avoid contaminating the medication.

    摘要: A display material for use in an electric paper system includes two opposing outer surfaces, between which is disposed a plurality of optically and electrically anisotropic elements suspended in a substance capable of being liquified. A rotatable disposition of each element is achievable while the element is suspended in the substance and the substance is liquified.

    摘要: A method and mechanism for ensuring quality control in printed biological assays is provided. A multi-ejector system having a plurality of individual drop ejectors is loaded with a variety of biofluids. Biofluids include at least a carrier fluid, a biological material to be used in the testing, and markers, such as fluorescent dyes. Data regarding the biofluid loaded in each of the drop ejectors is stored along with an expected signature output of the biofluid. Particularly, the signature output represents signals from individual ones of the fluorescent markers included within the biofluid. Once a biological assay consisting of the biofluid drops has been printed, a scanner capable of detecting the markers scans the biological assay and obtains signature output signals for each of the drops of the biological assay. A comparing operation is undertaken to compare the obtained signature output through the scanning operation, with the expected signature output signals for the biofluid loaded in the corresponding drop ejector. The biological material itself may also be tagged with a marker to ensure its inclusion in the biofluid. By the comparing operation, it is possible to verify the biofluids were loaded in the proper drop ejector, including the proper biological material, and that the drop ejectors are functioning properly.
