While comprising filled minor compartments being filled with an inclusion in which a liquid makes the major component, and vacant minor compartments being filled with the air, at least one of the vacant minor compartments adjoins the filled minor compartments, and a fragile section is formed in at least one of ribs that demarcate the filled minor compartments and the adjoining vacant minor compartments. After the fragile section has fractured, shock energy can be absorbed furthermore by means of circulation resistance to the inclusion that flows from the filled minor compartments to the vacant minor compartments.

Reduced lysine chlorotoxin polypeptides that may be used to generate single species conjugates of chlorotoxin. Conjugates comprising such chlorotoxin polypeptides and pharmaceutical compositions thereof. Methods of using such compositions and / or conjugates.

A method and apparatus for decoding are disclosed. The method includes receiving a first Forward Error Correction (FEC) block of read values, starting a hard-decode process in which a number of check node failures is identified and, during the hard-decode process comparing the identified number of check node failures to a decode threshold. When the identified number of check node failures is not greater than the decode threshold the hard-decode process is continued. When the identified number of check node failures is greater than the decode threshold, the method includes: stopping the hard-decode process prior to completion of the hard-decode process; generating output indicating that additional reads are required; receiving one or more additional FEC blocks of read values, mapping the first FEC block of read values and the additional FEC blocks of read values into soft-input values; and performing a soft-decode process on the soft-input values.

The invention provides a low-molecular-weight (15 kDa) over-sulfated exopolysaccharide (GYS15) prepared from a marine native exopolysaccharide excreted by a mesophilic marine bacterium from a deep-sea hydrothermal environment, and relates to the use of this low-molecular-weight over-sulfated exopolysaccharide for the prevention or inhibition of metastases formation.
