Publication number: 20230074097Abstract: The invention disclosed herein relates to an odor control system including features to allow a media scrubber to function to treat a humid, or saturated, or superheated exhaust stream. In some embodiments, the system disclosed herein can capture a humid, or saturated, or superheated exhaust stream, such as from a kettle vent, and dilute the exhaust with fresh air to lower the temperature of the combined air flow below its dew point. Water is drained from the system as it condenses in the system. The combined air flow can be further diluted and/or treated according to embodiments disclosed herein such that the exhaust stream, after having excess water removed, will have a relative humidity (RH) value enabling it to be run through a media scrubber.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2022Publication date: March 9, 2023Inventors: Andrew McGibbon, Louis John Pagano

Publication number: 20210386340Abstract: Analyte sensors are being increasingly employed for monitoring various analytes in vivo. Analyte sensors may feature enhancements to address signals obtained from interferent species. Some analyte sensors may comprise a working electrode having sensing portion and an exposed electrode portion, wherein the sensing portion comprises an active area having an analyte-responsive enzyme disposed thereupon and the exposed electrode portion comprises no active area. The exposed electrode portion and the sensing portion may be present in a ratio of and about 1:10 to about 10:1.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 15, 2021Publication date: December 16, 2021Applicant: ABBOTT DIABETES CARE INC.Inventors: Stephen Oja, Benjamin J. Feldman, Lam N. Tran, Jean-Pierre Babka, Mark Stephen Yahnke, Tahir S. Khan, Max Garbett, Adrian Petyt, Mark Alan Schulz, Andrew McGibbon, Andrew James Bull, Udo Hoss
