Informatics-Based Product-Service Systems for Point-of-Care Devices
Organised by: Cranfield UniversityInformatics related to point-of-care devices denotes the ability to translate stand-alone biological data into
meaningful information that can be interpreted to enable and support users in taking the most appropriate
steps to aid in managing their health. This paper considers small point-of-care devices used outside
healthcare environments, and presents glucometers as an example. The paper seeks to evaluate the
current level of servitization of point-of-care testing devices and considers whether they are, or could form,
the product-core of a product-service system. The type of product-service system, its informatics
requirements, and the services such a system could provide are also considered.Mori Seiki – The Machine Tool Company; BAE Systems; S4T – Support Service Solutions: Strategy and Transitio

Caracterização e ontogenia dos tricomas glandulares de Ocimum selloi Benth. - Lamiaceae Characterization and ontogeny of the glandular trichomes of Ocimum selloi Benth. (Lamiaceae)
Ocimum selloi Benth. (Lamiaceae) é uma espécie nativa da América do Sul e na medicina popular tem sido usada devido suas propriedades analgésica, anti-inflamatória e antiespasmódica. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi identificar os tipos de tricomas glandulares que ocorrem nos órgãos vegetativos e reprodutivos de O. selloi e determinar a ontogenia desses tricomas. Ramos laterais em inÃcio de formação, folhas totalmente expandidas, flores em diferentes estádios de diferenciação, amostras de caule e do eixo das inflorescências foram analisados em microscopias de luz e eletrônica de varredura. Tricomas glandulares do tipo peltado e capitado subséssil foram observados no caule, nas folhas, no eixo da inflorescência e na superfÃcie adaxial das sépalas. Nas sépalas foi encontrado, além dos tricomas secretores peltados e capitados subsésseis, o tricoma glandular capitado pedunculado. A ontogenia inicia-se com a expansão de uma célula protodérmica que, de acordo com a seqüência de divisões periclinais e anticlinais (ora simétricas, ora assimétricas), dá origem aos tricomas. A diferenciação dos tricomas glandulares peltados e capitados não é sincrônica e ocorre muito cedo no desenvolvimento da folha, do caule e do eixo floral.<br>Ocimum selloi Benth. (Lamiaceae) is native to South America and in traditional medicine has been used due to its analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antispasmodic properties. The aim of this study was to identify the types of glandular trichomes that occur on the vegetative and reproductive organs of O. selloi and to determine trichome ontogeny. Lateral branches at the initial formation phase, fully opened leaves, flowers at different differentiation stages, and stem and inflorescence axes were analyzed under light and scanning electron microscopy. Glandular trichomes of the peltate and subsessile capitate types were observed on the stem, leaves, inflorescence axis and the adaxial surface of the sepals. On the sepals, in addition to the peltate and subsessile capitate secretory trichomes, the stalked capitate glandular trichome type was detected. Ontogeny began with the expansion of a protodermic cell, which according to the sequence of periclinal and anticlinal division (either symmetric or asymmetric) gave rise to the glandular trichomes. Differentiation of the peltate and capitate glandular trichomes was not synchronized and occurred very early in the leaf, stem and floral axis
