  • Publication number: 20240091800
    Abstract: A hand held spray dispenser in which air and liquid are pressurised towards a mixing chamber by energy generated by a manual activation element that is rotated with a unidirectional twist to energise one or more energy storage bodies, energy from which is released to generate sufficient air pressure and air flow and sufficient liquid flow for a spray to be formed from the air-liquid mixture.

  • Publication number: 20230408498
    Abstract: The disclosure provides antibody constructs that can reversibly bind to biological or chemical target analytes. Upon target analyte binding, the antibody construct can change its conformational state to produce a detectable readout. An antibody construct can be a single-antibody construct or a dual-antibody construct.

  • Publication number: 20230252460
    Abstract: A method of associating a first party and a second party is provided, the method comprising receiving a first electronic message comprising information indicative of the first party; generating a first electronic token in response to receiving the information indicative of the first party; sending the first electronic token to the first party; receiving one or more second electronic messages from the second party, the one or more second electronic messages comprising the first electronic token and information indicative of the second party; generating a second electronic token in response to receiving the first electronic token and the information indicative of the second party from the second party; associating the information indicative of the first party, the second party and the second electronic token, the first party being identified on the basis of the first electronic token, and sending the second electronic token to the first party.

  • Publication number: 20210398111
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for transmitting credentials to a transaction processing system, the credentials arranged in sets and a set including a unique identifier and verification data elements. Credentials are activated and are then available for use in at least one subsequent transaction. In the transaction, in response to receiving authorization from a user, the unique identifier and verification data elements from a set are transmitted to the transaction processing system for the user. The credentials are activated using an activation mode selected from at least a first activation mode and a second activation mode. In the first activation mode, additional user input for the verification data elements associated with the unique identifier is received from the user. In the second activation mode, the user is authenticated, and verification data elements are received via a data communications network are received from a trusted data processing system remote from the user.

  • Patent number: 10764269
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for creating a second unique identifier for a user in a second system based on a first unique identifier for a user in a first system. A first authentication process is initiated based on a first unique identifier associated with the user in the first system. Responsive to the user successfully authenticating during the first authentication process, the second unique identifier for a user in the second system is generated. The second unique identifier is based on user data associated with the first unique identifier in the first system, and the second unique identifier is different from the first unique identifier.

  • Publication number: 20190190902
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for creating a second unique identifier for a user in a second system based on a first unique identifier for a user in a first system. A first authentication process is initiated based on a first unique identifier associated with the user in the first system. Responsive to the user successfully authenticating during the first authentication process, the second unique identifier for a user in the second system is generated. The second unique identifier is based on user data associated with the first unique identifier in the first system, and the second unique identifier is different from the first unique identifier.

  • Publication number: 20160034891
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for activating credentials for transmission to a transaction processing system via a data communications network, the credentials being arranged in sets and a set including a unique identifier and verification data elements. Credentials are activated and are then available for use in at least one subsequent transaction. In the transaction, in response to receiving authorization from a user, the unique identifier and verification data elements from a set are transmitted to the transaction processing system on behalf of the user. Responsive to the user successfully authenticating, a plurality of options are transmitted to the user. This plurality of options corresponds to different set of credentials derived at least in part from data received via data communications from one or more trusted data processing systems remote from the user. The user selects one or more of the options resulting in one or more sets of credentials are activated.
