Abstract: The present invention is directed to a bio-fluid detector such as a hemoglobin detector having the capability of receiving, storing and transmitting health information utilizing a portable transmitter and receiver including electronic PDAs such as cell phones. Further, the present invention utilizes a non-invasive hemoglobin detector that is connected to a portable transmitter-receiver such as PDAs including, but not limited to, cell phones.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to dead-end filtration systems and, more particularly, to pulse-modulated periodic backflush systems and methods for clearing fouling layers in dead-end filtration systems. In some embodiments, a controller may control the flow of fluid in the system from cycling from a forward flow to a reverse flow. In some embodiments, the controller may cycle from forward to reverse flow based on a volumetric flow ratio. Embodiments of the present disclosure describe optimal volumetric flow ratios for optimizing the break of cake in a dead-end filtration system. Embodiments of the present disclosure describe optimal volumetric flow ratios for optimizing recovery percentages of targeted particles.
