Compositions and methods are provided for modulating the growth, development and repair of bone, cartilage or other connective tissue. Devices and stimulus waveforms are provided to differentially modulate the behavior of osteoblasts, chondrocytes and other connective tissue cells to promote proliferation, differentiation, matrix formation or mineralization for in vitro or in vivo applications. Continuous-mode and pulse-burst-mode stimulation of cells with charge-balanced signals may be used. Bone, cartilage and other connective tissue growth is stimulated in part by nitric oxide release through electrical stimulation and may be modulated through co-administration of NO donors and NO synthase inhibitors. Bone, cartilage and other connective tissue growth is stimulated in part by release of BMP-2 and BMP-7 in response to electrical stimulation to promote differentiation of cells. The methods and devices described are useful in promoting repair of bone fractures, cartilage and connective tissue repair as well as for engineering tissue for transplantation.

Method and apparatus useful in simultaneously enhancing the fuel consumption efficiency of an ICE, with concomitant enhancement of the power delivered by the engine, and reduction of undesirable exhaust emissions. One embodiment of the method of this invention includes the steps of introducing a fuel/air mixture to the main combustion chamber of the ICE, providing a flame front pre-combustion system which enhances the timely delivery of multiple flame fronts to specific locations within the main combustion chamber for substantial spontaneity of ignition and combustion of the fuel/air mixture disposed within the combustion chamber when the crankshaft is within about 5 degrees nearer top dead center (TDC) than the timing established by a standard operation map for the ICE in question and which employs a conventional spark plug disposed within the combustion chamber. Such combustion continues over that time period during which the crankshaft travels at least past TDC and into its power stroke.

Provided are a low-noise image sensor capable of improving the efficiency of charge transfer from a photodiode to a diffusion node region and effectively suppressing the generation of dark current, and a transistor for the image sensor. The image sensor includes: a photosensitive pixel having a transfer transistor formed in a structure which causes hole accumulation in a part or all regions of a gate oxide; and a sensing control part applying a negative offset potential to the gate during a part or whole of a turn-off period of the transfer transistor. When the transfer transistor is off, the image sensor may form a sufficient barrier and accumulate electrons in the photodiode, and when the transistor is on, the sensor sufficiently lowers a barrier, fully depletes the photodiode before the transfer transistor reaches a threshold voltage, and inactivates a trap in a predetermined region for a certain time, and thus the dark current can be reduced.

A vacuum pump valve includes a valve body and a suction diaphragm. The valve body includes a sealing platform sealedly attached on the container at the opening thereof, and a guiding sleeve upwardly extended from the sealing platform to form a suction channel, wherein the sealing platform has an operation slot formed thereon at a position within the suction channel and at least a through ventilating groove communicating the receiving cavity of the container with an exterior thereof. The suction diaphragm is disposed within the suction channel of the valve body, including an enlarged sealing head adapted to seal on the sealing platform to enclose the ventilating groove thereof, and a guiding shaft extended from the sealing head to slidably mounted at the sealing platform at the operation slot to move the sealing head between a releasing position and a sealing position.
