  • Patent number: 11438679
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a storage box. The storage box includes a body, a cover, and a first magnetic unit. The body is provided with a receiving space. The cover is rotatably attached to the body and is configured to rotate relative to the body to drive the storage box between an open state and a closed state. In the open state, the cover covers the receiving space. In the closed state, the receiving space is exposed. The first magnetic unit includes a first magnetic member attached to the body and a first attracting member attached to the cover. Opening the storage box from the closed state causes the first attracting member to move closer to the first magnetic member. Magnetic force between the first magnetic member and the first attracting member drives the cover to rotate away from the closed state and into the open state.

  • Publication number: 20220235314
    Abstract: The invention provides a recombinant Escherichia coli strain for producing succinic acid and a construction method thereof. The by-product encoding genes in the E. coli strain FMME-N-2 are knocked out to obtain the E. coli strain FMME-N-5 (?focA-pflB-?ldhA-?pta-ackA); and the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase pck derived from Actinobacillus succinogenes and the phosphite dehydrogenase ptxD derived from Pseudomonas stutzeri were overexpressed. The constructed plasmid pTrcHisA-pck-ptxD was introduced into the expression host E. coli FMME-N-5 (?focA-pflB-?ldhA-?pta-ackA), and the cells were screened in a plate containing ampicillin, to obtain an engineered strain E. coli FMME-N-5 (?focA-pflB-?ldhA-?pta-ackA)-pck-ptxD that can efficiently produce succinic acid. After fermentation by a two-stage fermentation strategy, the production of succinic acid reaches 137 g/L, the yield of succinic acid is up to 1 g/g glucose, and the space time yield is 1.

  • Patent number: 11392647
    Abstract: When a chatbot application is in a mode of live chat conversation with a user, a trained intent classifier determines an intent that underlies a first live question received by the trained intent classifier from the user. A trained next predictor receives the intent from the intent classifier. The trained next intent predictor generates a set of predicted next intents responsive to receiving the intent. A trained re-ranker selects at least one of the predicted next intents responsive to receiving the set of predicted next intents. A question selection engine sends at least one suggested question to the user responsive to receiving the at least one predicted next intent. As a result of the above, the chatbot application provides to the user at least one suggested next question the user may wish to ask in response to the first question from the user.

  • Patent number: 11388210
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described implementing streaming analytics on a serverless compute system. A user can specify a data stream against which analytics should be conducted, serverless functions to be used to conduct the analysis, and criteria for the analytics, such as windowing criteria and aggregation criteria. The windowing criteria can specify windows of items within the stream that should be collectively analyzed. The aggregation criteria can specify how to group items within each window during analysis. A poller device can read data items from the stream, window and group the items according to the windowing and aggregation criteria, and invoke serverless functions to conduct streaming analytics on the data items. The poller device can further maintain state between invocations.

  • Publication number: 20220213425
    Abstract: The present invention generally relates to nanoscale wires and nanoelectronics, which in some aspects may be embedded in biological structures, such as tissues, organoids, organs, organisms, and the like. For example, one aspect is generally directed to stretchable cell scaffolds, which may be connected to electrical circuits. In some cases, a biological structure may form around the scaffold and deform the cell scaffold as it forms, thereby causing the cell scaffold to become embedded within the biological structure. The scaffold may be connectable in certain embodiments to an external device, e.g., to determine a property of the cell scaffold (e.g., an electrical property), and/or to apply a stimulus (e.g., an electrical stimulus) to the biological structure. Other aspects of the invention are generally directed to methods of making or using such cell scaffolds, kits including such cell scaffolds, biological structures containing such cell scaffolds, or the like.
