It was a homecoming of sorts, as the company offered test drives of the second-generation car, which was only available for lease, in the borough in 2010.
The second generation vehicle includes extensible landing legs and will be tested at the Texas test site high-altitude, mid-velocity testing of another of the second-generation test vehicles (F9R Dev2) at a SpaceX leased facility at Spaceport America in New Mexico.
Although the development and testing of the first-generation DESs focused to a considerable degree on efficacy parameters, including restenosis, recent concerns over late clinical events have prompted a refinement of the design criteria for succeeding generations of these devices.
The design of this new prototype incorporates lessons learned from the construction and testing of the first generation prototype, including finite element analyses of the balloon stresses and deformations, measured leak performance after handling and packaging, permeability and optical property measurements on material samples, and sulfuric acid testing.
The therapeutic strategies that are tested include the first-line administration of the second-generation TKIs originally used as second-line therapy or modified imatinib-based regimens, as higher dosages of imatinib from the start or combinations of imatinib with other drugs, namely, interferon-alpha (IFN-α).
In this study, we compared the diagnostic performance of the second-generation IDEIA Lyme Neuroborreliosis test with two third-generation assays in serum and CSF from 175 clinically well-defined patients for the diagnosis of LNB.
The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic performance of the second-generation IDEIA Lyme Neuroborreliosis test (Oxoid, Hampshire, UK), currently in use in our laboratory, but with a limited sensitivity in very early LNB [ 14], with two third-generation antibody assays based on several recombinant antigens for the laboratory diagnosis of LNB.
27 This test is obviously imperfect, since the sample of first generation immigrants does not include the parents of the second-generation immigrants.
The fact is that the number of effective doses of smallpox vaccine will remain unknown until current supplies are extensively tested in humans and the "second-generation vaccines" of the future have been tested for safety and efficacy.
Particular highlights include the delivery and testing of both a second-generation column parallel CCD (CP-CCD), design of the next-generation readout ASIC (CPR2a) and a dedicated ASIC for driving the CP-CCD.
