  • Publication number: 20030182448
    Abstract: A method for performing a hash transformation in a network device to generate a hash pointer for an address input by using rotation. The method includes to step of receiving an address input. Rotated copies of the address input are subsequently logically combined in accordance with a key to generate a hashing result corresponding to the address input. The hash result is subsequently output.

  • Publication number: 20030170810
    Abstract: Proteins can be purified and concentrated from crude cell lysates using high-throughput, automated process control systems that use software application programs to instruct one or more processors, controllers, and actuators to control and/or monitor the operations of filtration, purification, and concentration modules in such systems. The high-throughput production of concentrated proteins can be enabled by filtering the lysates and using compressed, non-reactive gas to concentrate the purified proteins, rather than using more complex centrifugation techniques.

  • Publication number: 20030104509
    Abstract: A method and device to assist in the determination of protein domain boundaries is described. In particular the device is designed to provide a high throughput of proteolytic digestion of proteins to identify domains and their boundaries, for use in protein structure determination, in a manner that is amenable to automation. Proteases are immobilized in a convenient format such as a microtitre plate and preferably arranged in a matrix thereby allowing for simultaneous degradation of a protein by a number of proteases at a number of concentrations.
