Abstract: A tissue sample processing system and associated methods is disclosed and described. The tissue sample processing system (100) can include a microfluidic separating system (110). The microfluidic separating system (110) can include a fluid channel to receive a carrier fluid (104) and a tissue sample (102), and a plurality of outlets. Flow of the carrier fluid (104) and the tissue sample (102) in the fluid channel can facilitate segregation of materials in the tissue sample (102) based on size into a plurality of size fractions, such that each one of the plurality of outlets receives a different size fraction of the materials in the tissue sample. In addition, the sample processing system (100) can comprise a cryopreservation system (120) associated with at least one of the plurality of outlets to freeze the material in the tissue sample (102) associated with the at least one of the plurality of outlets.

Abstract: An imaging system that is translucent can be achieved by placing an image sensor (204) at one of more edges or periphery of a translucent window (202). A small fraction of light from the outside scene scatters off imperfections (218) in the translucent window (202) and reach the peripheral image sensor (204). Based on appropriate calibration of the response of point sources (206) from the outside scene, the full scene can be reconstructed computationally from the peripherally scattered light (210, 212). The technique can be extended to color, multi-spectral, light-field, 3D, and polarization selective imaging. Applications can include surveillance, imaging for autonomous agents, microscopy, etc.

Abstract: An oxygen-sensing assembly for attachment to a urinary catheter may include a housing having a flow pathway extending between an inlet end and an outlet end thereof, an oxygen sensor in operable communication with the flow pathway of the housing, the oxygen sensor configured to detect oxygen levels of a fluid flowing through the flow pathway and a flowrate sensor configured to detect a flowrate of the fluid flowing through the flow pathway. A risk of acute kidney injury may be determined based on the mass flowrate of oxygen through the flow pathway, determined based on the detected oxygen levels and the flowrate of the fluid through the flow pathway. Related catheter assemblies and methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: Methods and systems for producing mesophasic (between liquid and solid phases) carbon materials from plastic waste. The method and system includes a 2-stage pyrolysis reactor, including first and second pyrolysis stages where a carbon feedstock material is subjected to pyrolysis. The first pyrolysis stage may subject the carbon feedstock material to pyrolysis at a first temperature in a range of 500° C. to 700° C., and the second pyrolysis stage may operate at a second temperature in a range of 800° C. to 1000° C., providing secondary gas phase reactions (SGR). A residence time of the carbon feedstock material in the reactor may be no more than 10 seconds. After pyrolysis and SGR, a sparging and thermal treatment stage may convert pyrolysis tar products to an anisotropic pitch product suitable for use in production of carbon fiber or bulk graphite for use in fabrication of graphite electrodes.
