This invention includes a clip having arms which grip living tissue, a press tube serving as a clamping member which is fitted and mounted on the clip to close the arms of the clip, a coupling member which can be inserted into the press tube and engages with the clip, and projections serving as lock portions which hold the arms of the clip in a closed state when the clip engages with the press tube.

The present invention provides compositions and methods for specific gene targeting and precise editing of DNA sequences in plant genomes using the CRISPR (cluster regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) associated nuclease. Non-transgenic, genetically modified crops can be produced using these compositions and methods.

Portable transdermal electrical stimulation (TES) applicators for modifying a subject's cognitive state. In general, the portable applicators described are specifically configured and adapted to be lightweight and may be wearable, and to deliver a high-intensity TES able to evoke or enhance a predetermined cognitive effect. These TES applicators may include a pair of electrodes and a TES control module comprising a processor, a timer and a waveform generator. TES control module is adapted to deliver a biphasic electrical stimulation signal of 10 seconds or longer between the first and second electrodes having a frequency of 400 Hz or greater, a duty cycle of greater than 10 percent, an intensity of 3 mA or greater, with a DC offset.

The present invention is directed to a pad and sound transmission system which is adapted to directly transmit audible sound waves into the body at high intensity levels. In one embodiment, the subject invention includes a back pad and a seat pad. Each pad includes a speaker module having an acoustic speaker disposed within the pad and surrounded by a plurality of different layers.

A secondary battery includes an electrode assembly including a positive electrode, a negative electrode and a separator interposed therebetween. A container receives the electrode assembly, and a cap assembly is fixed to the container to seal the container. A collector plate is electrically connected to the electrode assembly. The positive electrode, the negative electrode, or both has an uncoated region uncoated with active material. The uncoated region has a bent portion and the collector plate can be electrically connected to the bent portion of the uncoated region.

A transfer device A that is used for transferring a transferring paste T on an object on which the transferring paste T is to be transferred comprises a pair of first outside panel 21 and the second outside panel 11 that hold the transferring paste T, a pair of spools SP1, SP2 that are supported rotatably by a pair of the first and second outside panels 21, 11 and that hold the transferring paste T, and a pair of gears G1, G2 that drive a pair of the spools SP1, SP2 to rotate and that gear each other, and rotational supporting axes 211, 212 that project toward the second outside panel 11 and that axially support the gears G1, G2 are arranged on the first outside panel 21, wherein a restraining means R that restrains the gear G1 from being pulled out along an axial direction of the rotational supporting axis 211 in a state that the gears G1, G2 are axially mounted on the rotational supporting axes 211, 212 is arranged between the first outside panel 21 and the gear G1 and at a portion different from a portion where the gear G1 is axially mounted on the rotational supporting axis 211.

This invention relates to a display device comprising a plurality of display cells, wherein said display cells are separated by slanted partition walls. This invention also relates to a display device comprising a plurality of display cells, wherein said display cells are separated by indented partition walls having indented areas. The electrophoretic structures of the present invention may be manufactured by a continuous or semi-continuous roll-to-roll manufacturing process. The structures in which display cells are separated by slanted partition walls or partition walls having indented areas are capable of providing enhanced color states.

An on-the-go monitor and control means and method for an agriculture machines includes on-the-go soil sensors that can be used to control tillage and seeding depth. On seeder implements, the sensors provide information that affects uniform plant emergence.

This invention includes a clip having arms which grip living tissue, a press tube serving as a clamping member which is fitted and mounted on the clip to close the arms of the clip, a coupling member which can be inserted into the press tube and engages with the clip, and projections serving as lock portions which hold the arms of the clip in a closed state when the clip engages with the press tube.

The present invention relates to a composition useful for hepatocurative effect against CYP 450 bio-activation hepatotoxicity induced by drugs, said composition comprising an extract from Emblica officinalis and optionally pharmaceutically acceptable additives and method of treating drug induced hepatotoxicity.

The invention relates to an oil-gas-water multi-phase flow adjusting apparatus, which mainly comprises an inlet accelerating pipe section, a vortex flow guide spiral pipe, a gas circuit exit connection pipe section, a liquid receiving cone, a mixed liquid relief exit connection pipe section and a sampler exit connection pipe section, and which has the function for changing at intervals the flow pattern, the flow state and the components of the oil-gas-water multi-phase flow. The invention also relates to an oil-gas-water multi-phase flow rate measuring apparatus and its measuring method. The measuring apparatus comprises a blind three-way mixing means, a pressure differential type flow measuring device, a single-γ phase volume fraction meter, a dual-γ phase volume fraction meter, an oil-gas-water multi-phase flow adjusting apparatus and a computing system. The measuring method is as follows: the single-γ phase volume fraction meter and the dual-γ phase volume fraction meter measure the gas content GVF and the water content WC respectively; the pressure differential type flow measuring device measures the differential pressure ΔP of the total flow rate; the computing unit computes the oil flow rate Qo, the gas flow rate Qg and the water flow rate Qw.
