Abstract: Disclosed are methods for testing the presence and/or activity of glutathione system components and thioredoxin system components during the manufacturing process of disulfide bond-containing proteins. Also disclosed are methods for mitigating reduction of disulfide bonds during the manufacturing process, and for lowering the reduction potential of disulfide bond-containing proteins. Provided are compositions, kits, and methods for mitigating reduction and diminishing reduction potential of disulfide bond-containing proteins during protein manufacturing processes.

Abstract: The disclosed technology generally relates to displays, and more particularly to projection screens configured to display images with increased brightness and improved contrast and uniformity by using optical layers to control the direction and shape of the return light profiles. The disclosed technology comprises an optical layer configured such that incident light from a light source is directed towards specific positions for all locations on the reflective or transmissive display medium, and a light profile shaping optical layer configured to shape an intensity distribution of light reflected or transmitted from projection screen, prior to displaying the image to a viewer. The direction controlling optical layer and the light profile shaping optical layer may be combined into a single optical medium.

Abstract: A system includes a hardware processor and a memory storing software code for controlling distribution of ad surveys to target audiences. For each target audience, the hardware processor executes the software code to receive ad data describing an ad volume distributed to the target audience during a predetermined time interval of an ad campaign, and to receive survey data describing a survey volume distributed to the target audience and a survey response volume collected from the target audience during the predetermined time interval. The software code also determines a next survey sampling rate for the target audience based on the ad data and the survey data, such that the volume of survey responses collected from the target audience during matches an ad distribution volume for the target audience within a predetermined threshold during each predetermined time interval of the ad campaign.

Abstract: A system and method update client computers of various end users with software updates for software products installed on the client computers. The system includes a service provider computer system, a number of client computers and software vendor computer systems communicating on a common network. The service provider computer system stores in an update database information about the software updates of diverse software vendors, identifying the software products for which software updates are available, information for identifying in the client computers the software products stored thereon, and information for determining for such products, which have software updates available. Users of the client computers connect to the service provider computer and obtain a current version of portions of the database.

Abstract: A system, method and computer program product are provided for uninstalling software on a computer. In use, a plurality of software products identified on a computer is displayed. Further, a first user instruction to uninstall at least a portion of at least one of the software products from the computer is received. Such first user instruction is received via an interface. Still yet, the at least a portion of the at least one software product is uninstalled from the computer, in response to the receipt of the first user instruction. Also, a second user instruction may be received to cancel the uninstallation. Thus, the uninstallation may be cancelled, in response to the receipt of the second user instruction.
