Abstract: Disclosed herein is an apparatus for processing fluid samples such as blood or blood products. Also disclosed are devices comprising the apparatus as well as methods for separating plasma from blood or blood products using said apparatus.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and assays that employ magnetically susceptible beads and point-of-care devices comprising magnetic immunosensors to determine the amount of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in a biological sample obtained from a subject.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, complexes, kits, systems and algorithms for detecting or determining an amount, quantity, concentration and/or level of at least one type of anti-?-coronavirus antibody, such as, for example, an anti-SARS-CoV antibody or anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody (including an IgA, IgG and/or an IgM antibody), in one or more samples obtained from a subject.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device and method for monitoring a swimming performance. The device comprises one or more motion-sensitive sensors for providing motion data characteristic to the motion of the swimmer during said swimming performance and a computing unit adapted to detect body motions from said motion data using predefined criteria. According to the invention the computing unit comprises means for calculating a plurality of correlation factors depicting correlation of motion data between successive body motions detected, means for storing the correlation factors as a time series, and means for determining one or more parameters characteristic to the swimming performance based on said correlation factors stored. The invention can be used for robust determination of swimmer's turns, distance swum or swimming style, for example.

Abstract: According to an example embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus comprising at least one processing core, at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code being configured to, with the at least one processing core, cause the apparatus at least to cause at least one first node to be provided with software and initialized with data, cause the at least one first node to be set to a slave mode, cause a load balancer to be updated with information concerning the at least one first node, and terminate at least one second node, and in connection with terminating the at least one second node, set the at least one first node to an active mode.

Abstract: According to an example embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus comprising at least one processing core, at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code being configured to, with the at least one processing core, cause the apparatus at least to receive a first update from a second apparatus and a second update from a third apparatus, based at least in part on a first distribution and at least one of the first update and the second update, derive a second distribution, and cause information concerning the second distribution to be transmitted to at least one of the second apparatus and the third apparatus.
