  • Metabolic profiling by reverse-phase/ion-exchange mass spectrometry
    Patent number: 11906510
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods of analyzing a biological sample comprising: separating components of the biological sample via reversed-phase (RP) chromatography to obtain an elute; subjecting the elute to separation via ion-exchange (IEX) chromatography or mixed-mode IEX chromatography; and detecting the separated compounds to determine the components of the biological sample. Also disclosed are devices comprising a reversed-phase (RP) chromatography column in communication with an ion-exchange (IEX) chromatography column or mixed-mode IEX chromatography column, wherein there is no switching valve between the columns.
    Type: Grant

  • Integrated electronic hardware for wafer processing control and diagnostic
    Patent number: 6622286
    Abstract: A central controller for use in a semiconductor manufacturing equipment integrates a plurality of controllers with an open architecture allowing real-time communication between the various control loops. The central controller includes at least one central processing unit (CPU) executing high level input output (i/o) and control algorithms and at least one integrated i/o controller providing integrated interface to sensors and control hardware. The integrated i/o controller performs basic i/o and low level control functions and communicates with the CPU through a bus to perform or enable controls of various subsystems of the semiconductor manufacturing equipment.
