Abstract: The present invention relates to antibodies that specifically bind to one or more of IL-4, IL-13, IL-33, TSLP, and p40. The present invention further relates to antibodies that bind to one of IL-4, IL-13, IL-33, or TSLP. The invention further relates to multispecific antibodies that specifically bind to IL-4 and IL-13, and at least one other target. The present invention relates to multispecific antibodies that bind IL-4, IL-13, and one of IL-33, TSLP, or p40. The present invention also pertains to related molecules, e.g. nucleic acids which encode such antibodies or multispecific antibodies, compositions, and related methods, e.g., methods for producing and purifying such antibodies and multispecific antibodies, and their use in diagnostics and therapeutics.

Abstract: Among the various aspects of the present disclosure is the provision of compositions and methods for platelet storage supplementation with an amino acid, such as taurine.

Abstract: A method and system for tracking and maintaining equipment, such as in a medical equipment processing laboratory. A database server is provided with an administrative portal application allowing an administrator to add users, define stations within a laboratory, define instruments at each station, and create maintenance log forms for each instrument. Laboratory technicians use a mobile tablet application to complete the maintenance log forms according to established schedules, such as daily or weekly. Completed maintenance log forms are uploaded to the server and compared to the established schedules. Alerts are sent to supervisors for any items not completed according to schedule. The supervisors can also review compliance percentages, manage the workload of individual technicians, and produce reports and documentation for usage in periodic compliance audits and inspections.

Abstract: A grill system includes a grill frame and a cooking surface attached to the grill frame. The grill system also includes a solid fuel compartment positioned proximate to the cooking surface. The grill system additionally includes a burner positioned below the solid fuel compartment. Cooking may be accomplished by alternately using only the burner, using only solid fuel placed in the solid fuel compartment, and using both the burner and the solid fuel placed in the solid fuel compartment to heat a common area of the cooking surface without modifying an arrangement of the solid fuel compartment and the burner.

Abstract: A method is disclosed to generate and save run time data. The method supplies an embedded device comprising a processor which includes a processor cache, memory, a hardware trace facility comprising a plurality of data buffers, where the embedded device is capable of communicating with one or more host adapter ports. The method generates a trace entry, stores that trace data entry in the processor cache, and then writes the trace data entry to the plurality of data buffers.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a continuous process for making an alkali metal azide or an alkaline earth metal azide which comprises the steps of: (a) reacting a first reaction mixture comprising an alkali metal nitrite or alkaline earth metal nitrite, a C1--C3 alkanol, and a high boiling acid in a first reactor to form a gaseous C1-C3 alkyl nitrite, (b) controllably feeding said gaseous C1-C3 alkyl nitrite into a second reactor and reacting in a controlled manner a second reaction mixture comprising said gaseous C1-C3 alkyl nitrite, hydrazine, and an alkali metal hydroxide or alkaline earth metal hydroxide, in the presence of an organic solvent, thereby producing an alkali metal azide or alkaline earth metal azide, and (c) removing said alkali metal azide or alkaline earth metal azide from said second reactor and replenishing said reaction mixture in said second reactor to provide a continuous, controlled process for producing said alkali metal azide or alkaline earth metal azide.
