Dry thawing systems and devices for thawing biological substances are provided herein. Methods for thawing biological substances are also provided.

An improved baby bottle apparatus having a baby bottle adapted to be filled with a liquid and any chosen additives and then releasably attached to a base member with the base member adapted to releasably connect with the bottle member and heat a liquid to a desired temperature and stir the liquid to mix any chosen additives added to the liquid before a baby sucks on the nipple and drinks the liquid.

A cost-effective, single use bag or container is provided for storing biological substances that incorporates on its inner wall an electronic device that is configured to measure physiological and/or physical parameters of the enclosed biological substances, such as source history, identification, demographics, time stamping, temperature, pH, conductivity, glucose, O.sub.2, CO.sub.2 levels etc. The electronic device of the disclosed bag comprises a sensor configured to measure physiological and/or physical parameters of the biological substances enclosed within the bag, and a radio-frequency (RF) device communicably coupled to the sensor and configured to: (a) acquire from the sensor data associated with the measured parameters, (b) store the acquired sensor data in nonvolatile memory, and (c) communicate the stored data wirelessly to a RF reader.

A case includes a pocket for hermitically storing medical device(s) and medicine. The case may include a manual or motorized pump that can generate vacuum pressure within the pocket to thermally insulate the pocket from the atmosphere to minimize temperature fluctuations within the pocket. The case may also include a cooling and/or heating system to control the temperature within the pocket within a desired range to prolonging the potency and the life expectancy of the drug, such as epinephrine, stored within the pocket. The case may also be equip with a communication device that can link with user's mobile device so that in case of an emergency, the communication device can alert the mobile device, which can then notify emergency personal for assistance.

Provided are a smart bottle and a method for controlling the smart bottle. A smart bottle comprises a bottle for containing liquid; a base formed to be combined to one side of the bottle; a first sensor installed in the bottle or the base, and configured to obtain level information of liquid contained in the bottle; a third sensor configured to obtain inclination information of the bottle; a heater configured to heat the liquid contained in the bottle; a controller configured to control operation of the heater based on the temperature information, determine a feeding start and a feeding end based on the inclination information, and modify the level information based on the inclination information; a communication unit configured to transmit the inclination information and the level information to an external device; and a battery configured to supply power to the first sensor and the base.

An actively heated or cooled portable container has a body with a chamber that receives and holds a liquid, and one or more heating or cooling elements in thermal communication with at least a portion of the chamber. An outer surface of the body has one or more electrical contacts. A module is removably coupled to a portion of the body. The module has one or more electrical contacts on an outer surface of the module that contact the one or more electrical contacts on the outer surface of the body, control circuitry, and one or more power storage elements that provide power to the control circuitry and/or the one or more heating or cooling elements. The control circuitry wirelessly communicates with a mobile electronic device to wirelessly transmit information to the mobile electronic device associated with the operation of the module and/or wirelessly receive instructions from a user via the mobile electronic device.

An apparatus for sequestering and releasing compounds into the air is provided. The apparatus includes a card with a first side and a second side, and a plurality of compound-sequestering structures affixed to the first side. Each of the plurality of compound-sequestering structures is configured to release a compound into the air when heated to a first temperature.

The present technology discloses a cost-effective, single use bag or container for storing biological substances that incorporates on its inner wall an electronic device that is configured to measure physiological and/or physical parameters of the enclosed biological substances, such as source history, identification, demographics, time stamping, temperature, pH, conductivity, glucose, O.sub.2, CO.sub.2 levels etc. The electronic device of the disclosed bag comprises a sensor configured to measure physiological and/or physical parameters of the biological substances enclosed within the bag, and a radio-frequency (RF) device communicably coupled to the sensor and configured to: (a) acquire from the sensor data associated with the measured parameters, (b) store the acquired sensor data in nonvolatile memory, and (c) communicate the stored data wirelessly to a RF reader.

An arrangement (300) for a feeding bottle is provided, the feeding bottle comprising a teat component (110), and a container component (120), which together define an internal bottle volume extending longitudinally between a base end of the container component, and a top end of the teat component. The arrangement comprises an internal element (310) for positioning inside the bottle volume, and a protruding element (320) arranged for extending from the internal element to an outside of the bottle when the bottle is in an assembled state with the internal element in position, for providing an interconnection between inside and outside of the bottle.

A continuous skin packaging and coating apparatus and a coating method for tablets. The continuous skin packaging and coating apparatus comprises a lower coating film unreeling roller, a waste edge reeling roller, an upper coating film unreeling roller, a lower coating film heating component, an upper coating film heating component, a first mold provided with a first tablet placing hole, a second mold provided with a second tablet placing hole, a heat-sealing plate, a cutting component, a blank tablet implanting component, and an operating mesa. The lower coating film unreeling roller and the waste edge reeling roller are provided on either side of the operating mesa. The lower coating film heating component, the blank tablet implanting component, the upper coating film unreeling roller, the upper coating film heating component, the heat-sealing plate, and the cutting component are sequentially provided above the operating mesa. The first mold is provided under the operating mesa below the blank tablet implanting component. The second mold is provided under the operating mesa below the heat-sealing plate. The upper coating film heating component is provided below the upper coating film unreeling roller.
