Abstract: A personal protective equipment face covering includes at least one layer. Each of the at least one layers includes at least one fabric material. Wherein, each of the at least one layers of the at least one fabric material including an inherently ionic material. Wherein an ionic charge on the inherently charged ionic material comes from a molecular structure, not from electrostatic charge or triboelectricity.

Abstract: A logistics management system (LMS) may include receiving, at a server, a reservation request from a requestor for a booking on an air carrier's cargo hold for a designated route; validating, by the server, an availability of the requested booking with the air carrier; generating, by the server, a price quote for the booking; communicating, by the server, the price quote to the requestor; and receiving, by the server, an acceptance of the price and terms from the requestor to form commercial terms for the booking.

Abstract: A logistics management system (LMS) may include receiving, at a server, a reservation request from a requestor for a booking on an air carrier's cargo hold for a designated route; receiving, at a server, a selected agreement for assignment to the booking corresponding to a campaign; assigning, by the server, the terms of the selected agreement to the booking according to the campaign; and generating, by the server, a price quote for the requested booking based, at least in part, upon the terms of the selected agreement.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing air waybill pricing may include selecting a first transportation contract to price the transportation of a carriage of goods for the air waybill, wherein the first transportation contract is linked to other charge contracts. Embodiments may also include determining an identifier associated with the first transportation contract that links the first transportation contract to the plurality of other charge contracts. The one or more other charge contracts associated with the same identifier associated with the first transportation contract may be identified, and a price for the carriage of goods may be calculated based at least in part on transportation charges specified in the first transportation contract and other charges specified in the identified one or more other charge contracts. Some embodiments may further include outputting an air waybill that is generated to include at least the calculated price for the carriage of goods.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing all-in spot rate pricing with a logistics management system are provided. Embodiments may include receiving, via an interface that includes spot rate information, an instruction to produce a spot rate for an air waybill that includes a transportation charge and a plurality of other charges. Embodiments may also include calculating the spot rate that includes the transportation charge and the plurality of other charges to obtain a calculated all-in spot rate. Some embodiments may further include outputting an air waybill that is generated to include at least the calculated all-in spot rate.

Abstract: The presence of A-protein in an abnormally large amount in a sample, such as blood, from an individual is diagnostic of primary or metastatic cancer in the individual. The presence of A-protein is most readily detected by immunological reaction of it with specific antibodies. A preferred procedure for detecting the presence of A-protein in samples is by a sandwich assay using two antibodies with different epitopic specificities for A-protein.

Abstract: A last event indicator apparatus includes a cylindrical support having a longitudinal axis, an outer surface and a tapered flange structure. The tapered flange structure has a first end having a first diameter and a second end having a second diameter that is greater than the first diameter of the first end. An expandable indicator ring is disposed over the outer surface. The indicator ring is axially displaceable along the longitudinal axis to engage the tapered flange structure and cause expansion of the indicator ring. The expandable indicator ring is rotatable about the longitudinal axis over the outer surface to each of a plurality of selected positions.

Abstract: A leak detector including a fill cylinder and a pressure cylinder mounted in spaced relationship on a frame. The fill cylinder includes a movable liquid-tight piston, valved ports on one side of the piston, and a vent port on the opposite side. The pressure cylinder includes a movable pressure piston, a pressure regulator in communication with one side of the piston, and an access port on the opposite side. A connecting rod interconnects the liquid-tight piston and the pressure piston and spans the space between the cylinders. A pointer attached to the connecting rod registers with a calibrated scale on the frame and movement of the pointer toward the fill cylinder indicates a leak in the pressurized liquid piping system being tested.
