Publication number: 20240166685Abstract: Systems and methods are described in which proteins are isolated from complex solutions in high yield and at high purity. Such systems and methods are carried out at ambient temperature and can be carried out at industrial scale with minimal energy requirements and minimal carbon footprint, using successive chromatographic separations that retain the protein or proteins of interest in flow-through fractions. At least one of the chromatography media used is selected to be capable of interacting with both contaminants and the protein of interest, however capacity of this media is selected such that the protein of interest is displaced and remains in the flow-through. Methods for isolation of IgG, albumin, and both IgG and albumin are provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 30, 2024Publication date: May 23, 2024Inventors: Eugene Zurlo, Dennis Curtin, Klaus Peter Radtke, Ryan Dorfman, Matthew Whelihan

Publication number: 20240092828Abstract: Systems are provided for isolation of a protein, such as immunoglobulin G (IgG), from plasma, where the protein is initially fractioned by salt precipitation, followed by successive ion exchange steps in which the protein appears in unbound, flow-through fractions of the ion exchange steps. Some embodiments employ successive anion exchange steps. Other embodiments employ an anion exchange step followed by application of flow-through of the anion exchange step to a cation exchange step, with the protein collected in flow-through fractions from the cation exchange step. IgG is collected at high yield (typically about 75% or greater) and high purity. Avoidance of binding and elution from chromatography media simplifies processing and scale up without sacrificing IgG quality or yield.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 21, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Eugene Zurlo, Dennis Curtin, Klaus Peter Radtke, Ryan Dorfman, Matthew Whelihan

Publication number: 20200018735Abstract: A respiration gas monitor (RGM) device includes an infrared light source (30) launching infrared light (34) through a respired air flow path (36), and an optical detector (40) that detects the infrared light after passing through the respired air flow path. An absorption line bandpass filter (42) has a passband encompassing an absorption line of a target gas. A reference line bandpass filter (44) has a passband over which the respired air is transparent. A control device (62, 64, 70, 80, 90) switches the RGM device between: a monitoring state in which the absorption line bandpass filter is in the path of the infrared light; and a calibration state in which the reference line bandpass filter is in the path of the infrared light and the absorption line bandpass filter is not in the path of the infrared light.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 20, 2018Publication date: January 16, 2020Inventor: Eugene Peter Gerety

Publication number: 20160248817Abstract: When an Internet Protocol (IP) telephony system receives a telephony communication setup request for a user of the IP telephony system, the IP telephony system attempts to setup the new telephony communication to the user's telephony device as an IP telephony communication that traverses a data network. However, if the called party wishes to instead setup the new telephony communication through an alternate telephony system, such as a cellular telephony system, the IP telephony system acts to facilitate the setup of the new telephony communication via that alternate telephony system. This could include placing a telephone call to the user's telephony device via the alternate telephony system, or receiving an incoming call from the user's telephony device that is received via the alternate telephony system.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 20, 2015Publication date: August 25, 2016Inventors: EUGENE PETER CANNON, BRYAN STOKES, BERNARD SCHULZ
