Abstract: An intracorporeal sensor delivery system comprises a delivery catheter with a lumen. A guide wire lumen is configured to receive a guide wire. The GWL extends within the lumen and protrudes beyond the distal end of the catheter. An intracorporeal sensor comprises proximal and distal ends. The proximal end of the sensor is positioned distal to the distal end of the catheter. A proximal coupling feature is coupled to the proximal end of the sensor and is configured to removably couple the sensor to the delivery catheter. A distal coupling feature is coupled to the distal end of the sensor. The distal coupling feature is further removably coupled to an outer surface of the GWL at a position that is distally located with respect to the distal end of the sensor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of treating or preventing DNA damage in a cell or cellular senescence of a cell or induction of the senescence associated secretory phenotype (SASP) in a cell, or for treating or preventing the effects of aging, or for preventing or treating cellular senescence and/or induction of SASP associated with high caloric intake or obesity, or for reducing the side effects of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, corticoid treatment, anti-retroviral treatment, or PPAR? agonist treatment comprising administering an effective amount of an NAD+ agonist.

Abstract: A tokenization system receives a request for data anonymization, the request referencing unstructured/semi-structured content containing values of interest. The tokenization system performs a tokenization operation on the unstructured/semi-structured content, generates self-describing tokens for the values of interest, each self-describing token having a preconfigured pattern, an indication of a protection strategy, and a token value, and stores the values of interest in a secure data vault. The tokenization system may receive a request to reveal the self-describing tokens in the unstructured/semi-structured content. In response, the tokenization system searches the anonymized version of the unstructured or semi-structured content for the preconfigured pattern, identifies self-describing tokens, uses the self-describing tokens to retrieve the values of interest from the secure data vault, and produces a detokenized version of the unstructured/semi-structured content containing the values of interest.

Abstract: The invention relates to vise pivotal jaws for holding irregular shaped objects and that are modular to work on various sized prior art vises.

Abstract: A method to fabricate a three dimensional memory structure may include creating a stack of layers including a conductive source layer, a first insulating layer, a select gate source layer, and a second insulating layer, and an array stack. A hole through the stack of layers may then be created using the conductive source layer as a stop-etch layer. The source material may have an etch rate no faster than 33% as fast as an etch rate of the insulating material for the etch process used to create the hole. A pillar of semiconductor material may then fill the hole, so that the pillar of semiconductor material is in electrical contact with the conductive source layer.

Abstract: A lighting assembly includes one or more spheroid lenses and a lighting insert configured to hold the spheroid lens or lenses and to cover a hole in a vehicle body panel. The lighting insert is further configured to form a water-tight seal with each of the vehicle body panel and the spheroid lens or lenses. The lighting insert defines a lens aperture configured to hold a corresponding spheroid lens. The lens aperture is substantially smaller than the hole in the vehicle body panel, and the lighting insert is further configured to form a water-tight seal with each of the vehicle body panel and the spheroid lens. The lighting insert may define a circle shape that is configured to cover a circle-shaped hole in the vehicle body panel. The lighting insert may define an oval shape that is configured to cover an oval-shaped hole in the vehicle body panel.

Abstract: A precursor for preparing a chemical mechanical polishing pad includes a prepolymer, a disulfide-containing component, and a curative. The chemical mechanical polishing pad prepared from the precursor includes a disulfide bridge in a polymer matrix. The disulfide bridge may include a disulfide bond capable of undergoing a chain exchange reaction at temperatures experienced during chemical mechanical polishing processes, resulting in rearrangement of nearby disulfide bonds during the chemical mechanical polishing processes rather than breakage of these bonds.

Abstract: A microelectronic device comprises a stack structure, a stadium structure within the stack structure, and conductive contact structures. The stack structure comprises a vertically alternating sequence of conductive structures and insulative structures arranged in tiers. Each of the tiers comprises one of the conductive structures and one of the insulative structures. The stadium structure comprises a forward staircase structure having steps comprising edges of the tiers, and a reverse staircase structure opposing the forward staircase structure and having additional steps comprising additional edges of the tiers. The conductive contact structures vertically extend to upper vertical boundaries of at least some of the conductive structures of the stack structure at the steps of the forward staircase structure and the additional steps of the reverse staircase structure, and are each integral and continuous with one of the conductive structures.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to a system, method, and sensors for real-time microbial monitoring based on the presence and concentrations of microbial signals, typically gaseous compounds, which are reflective of the microbial population size, microbial health, and/or microbial metabolic activity level within aqueous environments. Use of the disclosed technology to provide online remote measurement of microbial signals, and importantly the detection of changes therein, can be used to determine stable operating conditions and detect fluctuations in water quality. The sensor monitoring technology is able to monitor the native microbial population present in an aquatic environment and does not consume any reagents or require discrete sampling points. Further, an online measurement can be implemented to track microbial activity in real-time.

Abstract: Automatic token wallet generation includes generating a token wallet generated for a unique identifier that is associated with a person. The unique identifier may be a communication identifier like an email address, a telephone number, a social media handle, and so on. Storage space may be allocated for the token wallet and may be associated with the unique identifier. One or more NFTs (non-fungible tokens) may then be associated with the token wallet. In some examples, the token wallet may be automatically created in response to a request to associate an NFT with it. In other examples, the token wallet may be created in response to a request to perform other actions related to the token wallet.
