  • Publication number: 20230220501
    Abstract: Systems and a device for a pathogen detection system are described herein. For example, a pathogen detection system may include a pathogen detection device comprising an inlet, an outlet, and a reactive chamber; an imaging system comprising an excitation source and a fluorescence detection system; a substrate; and a heating element. In some examples, the pathogen detection system may be configured to detect one or more pathogens and/or viruses in a sample. For example, the pathogen detection device may receive a solution containing at least one of DNA or RNA and route the solution to the reactive chamber. Upon heating the solution, the pathogen detection device may further receive a probe containing one or more fluorescent dyes. The excitation source may excite the solution, and the detection system may detect an emission of the one or more fluorescent dyes.

  • Publication number: 20050185673
    Abstract: A system tracks ownership data for data resources coupled on a network. The system includes a data extractor for extracting data resource communication activity data from a plurality of network activity data sources, a database of organizational data resource ownership data, and a communication activity report generator for correlating extracted data resource communication activity data and organizational data resource ownership data so that ownership of communication activity may be tracked. The data extractor obtains network activity data from a variety of data sources such as firewalls, routers, servers, PBXs, softswitches, media gateways, SS7 signaling points, integrated access devices, and calling card imports. Network activity data about communication activity may be obtained directly from the data resources initiating the communication activity or from data sources that handle communication activity initiated by a data resource.

  • Publication number: 20030182420
    Abstract: A disclosed system comprises user sites with monitor devices that report uncategorized content sites requested by users to a master site via an external network such as “the Internet.” The master site administers categorization of content sites, which is carried out by an unknown site reviewer. The master site transmits the resulting site categorization data to the monitor devices. The monitor devices use this data for subsequent user requests to determine categories of content sites requested by users. The monitor device further determines whether users are authorized to access content sites according usage policies established for the users sites.

  • Patent number: 6342995
    Abstract: A lighted escutcheon plate for power distribution equipment includes an escutcheon plate in electrical communication with a power distribution circuit; and a plurality of LED bulbs, generally green or alternatively red, mounted on the escutcheon plate, so as to provide a visual indication of an open circuit status by lighting when the power distribution circuit is opened. The plate also includes a plurality of LED bulbs, generally red or alternatively green, mounted on the escutcheon plate, so as to provide a visual indication of a close circuit status by lighting when the power distribution circuit is closed. For tripped circuit conditions the plate includes a plurality of LED bulbs, generally yellow or amber, mounted on the escutcheon plate, so as to provide a visual indication of a trip circuit status by lighting when the power distribution circuit is tripped.
