Multipotent amniotic fetal stem cells

A source of multipotent amniotic fluid / fetal stem cells (MAFSCs) is disclosed. MAFSC are of fetal origin and have a normal diploid karyotype. These cells are characterized by the following cell surface markers: SSEA3, SSEA4, Tra-1-60, Tra-1-81, Tra-2-54, HLA class I, CD13, CD44, CD49b, CD105 and are distinguished by the absence of the antigen markers CD34, CD45, and HLA Class II, but are distinguished from mouse embryonic stem cells in that these cells do not express the cell surface marker SSEA1. MAFSC express the stem cell transcription factor Oct-4. MAFSC cells can be propagated for an indefinite period of time in continuous culture in an undifferentiated state. The MAFSCs have the ability to differentiate in culture in a regulated manner, into three or more subphenotypes. Cells can then be differentiated into endodermal, mesodermal and ectodermal derived tissues in vitro and in vivo. A method for isolating, identifying, expanding and differentiating MAFSCs is disclosed.

System for evacuating the residual heat from a liquid metal or molten salts cooled nuclear reactor

A system for evacuating the residual heat from a nuclear reactor cooled with liquid metal or molten salts has two types of heat exchangers immersed in the primary fluid of the reactor: heat exchangers with higher power density, which use boiling water as secondary cooling fluid and are particularly suitable for evacuating the residual heat in the first days after turning-off of the reactor; and heat exchangers operating with atmospheric air or with water and suitable for evacuating the residual heat for indefinite periods of time. Both types of heat exchangers present a bundle of heat-exchange elements, shaped in such a way that the secondary fluid circulating in each element is separated from the primary fluid of the reactor by a double wall of the element, which delimits a gap introduced in which is a pressurized inert gas having the function of continuous monitoring of the integrity of the heat exchanger and of thermal resistance calibrated for preventing solidification of the primary fluid of the reactor in the heat exchanger.

Embodiments of a plasma fusion energy reactor based on Bussard's Polywell concept. The apparatus of the embodiments include interior, electron-extraction electrodes to remove cold, trapped electrons and replace them with hot electrons. Hot electrons efficiently confine a dense, hot plasma fuel. The method of the embodiments discloses a procedure for controlling the reactor during its start-up phase of operation. During start-up the reactor is changed from being in a cold, empty state to being in a stable steady-state of energy production. Reliable computer simulation predicts that in steady-state the disclosed apparatus and method will produce usable net-power continuously and for an indefinite period of operation. The full-scale reactor design is suitable for replacing most of the world's existing coal-fired power production with a clean, safe energy production alternative.

Grave marker grid support system

The present invention discloses a method and system for maintaining the position of headstones in a cemetery. Previously, headstones installed at a cemetery may shift over time. As the ground beneath the headstone is subjected to erosion from frost, rain, snow, and wind, the headstone may settle and eventually sink partially into the ground. In some cases the headstones may become loose and fall, possibly getting damaged. The present invention provides a subterranean bridge comprised of concrete that the headstone rests upon. In this way, the headstone is supported by the concrete bridge structure, and is less affected by soil conditions, ground water, and freeze-thaw cycles. Since, by definition, the headstones are to be at the cemetery for an indefinite period of time, it is desirable to have a system to maintain the position of the headstone for the long term. The bridge is comprised of two caissons and a plinth. The plinth straddles the caissons, and the headstone rests on the plinth, which has drainage means to prevent standing water on the plinth.

Through the platform the sellers may create an online store, in which, while setting up their pages, sellers may identify their dream (their strongly desired goal or purpose) to be displayed on their online store page. The infrastructure of the platform enables sellers to sell products or services to their community of supporters. In addition to a customized fundraising page, the seller receives access to automated marketing provided by the dreamraising platform through the use of a sidekick communication platform. The dreamraising fundraising platform, along with the sidekick communication platform, provides the seller with sophisticated digital marketing to increase sales and the ability to track funds raised.

Method of cancer therapy by in situ production of F5 antibodies

The invention refers to the production of antibodies named F5 in a cancer carrier and the effect they exert on the development of guest's tumor. F5 may down regulate the proliferation and life of cancer cells regardless the histological nature of the malignancy and the stage of tumor growth. The novel antibody may be raised exclusively in a tumor-carrier guest by challenge with the immunoglobin antigen FIV Abs. This kind of immunization imitates at a certain extent the scheme of classical vaccination with an extern pathogen justifying thus by a semantic derogation the anti-cancer therapeutic vaccination name. The uniqueness of F5 is the result of the adjustment between the conventional antigen FIV to the reactivity in cancer known as premunition. Theoretical considerations and experimental data bring evidence of the efficiency of multi clonal F5 Abs in the treatment of primary or metastatic tumors. The anticancer effect of F5 is only possible as a result of the structural mimicry of the agent with the cancer autocrine growth factors. The blocking of cancer receptors with F5 Abs may produce regression of the primary or metastatic tumors, or arrest of cancer proliferation for indefinite periods of time or, according to circumstances to reduce quantitatively the radio-chemo therapy and the extension of surgical intervention in case of necessity.
