20110196094 | NANOCOMPOSITE BIOMATERIALS OF NANOCRYSTALLINE CELLULOSE (NCC) AND POLYLACTIC ACID (PLA) - A new approach is conceived for the development of sustainable biomaterials comprising nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) and polylactic acid (PLA) nanocomposites. The invention deals with advancing a method based on in situ ring opening polymerization of L-lactide in the presence of NCC particles to form NCC-PLA supramolecular nanocomposite materials. This material is hydrophobic and compatible with a wide range of synthetic and natural polymers. NCC-PLA nanocomposites have enhanced functionality (e.g. gas barrier), rheological and mechanical performance, as well as dimensional stability (i.e. less hygroexpansivity) relative to PLA. They are made from entirely renewable resources, and are potentially biocompatible as well as recyclable. NCC-PLA supramolecular nanocomposites can be suspended in most organic solvents or dried to form a solid substance. They can be processed using conventional polymer processing techniques to develop 3-dimensional structures, or spun into fibres, yarns or filaments. | 08-11-2011 |

Recommended search query terms are generated based on statistic information derived from empirical data recording prior search sessions with respect to searching on a search engine. A query term entered later in a search session is treated as a possible replacement term for a query term entered earlier in the same session. Upon receiving an initial query term in a new search session, the replacement terms of the initial query term are identified from the empirical data and evaluated as candidates for replacing the initial query term in the new search session. The evaluation is based on the respective occurrence rates that the candidates are used as replacement terms for the initial query term in the empirical data, and based on the respective conversion rates of the candidates. | 04-30-2015 |

20090053801 | Shallow multi-well plastic chip for thermal multiplexing - Disposable units in current use for performing PCR are limited by their heat block ramping rates and by the thermal diffusion delay time through the plastic wall as well as by the sample itself. This limitation has been overcome by forming a disposable plastic chip using a simple deformation process wherein one or more plastic sheets are caused, through hydrostatic pressure, to conform to the surface of a suitable mold. After a given disposable chip has been filled with liquid samples, it is brought into close contact with an array of heating blocks that seals each sample within its own chamber, allowing each sample to then be heat treated as desired. | 02-26-2009 |
