Abstract: An apparatus, a system, sensor, and a method for determining dissolved oxygen content in air and aqueous medium are disclosed herein. The dissolved oxygen content may be determined by irradiating the sensor comprising at least a photo-oxidizable compound by a light irradiation source, wherein the irradiation enables the photo-oxidizable compound to change its luminescent properties based upon photo-oxidation thereby enabling the quantification of the dissolved oxygen content in the medium. The dissolved oxygen content may be captured via the impedance response generated by interdigitated conducting electrode patterns included in the sensor. The dissolved oxygen content registered by the interdigitated conducting electrode patterns may be transmitted to a user device via a short range or long-range communication via an electronic circuit embedded within the sensor.

Abstract: A method of improving a ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCo) to have a higher protein score is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: making a modified RbcL of the RuBisCo, by, on an RbcL unit of the RuBisCo, either substituting Met for Leu, Phe, Val, or Ile or combinations thereof; substituting Lys for Arg, Thr, or His or combinations thereof; or both of these substitutions. The modified RbcL consequently modifies the RuBisCo and is added to a biomass host where it is stable for homologous recombination. Plastid and nucleus integration was observed. Example RbcL sequences are disclosed with the desirable substitutions. The improved RuBisCo can be used as an improved proteinaceous food source for humans and animals.

Abstract: Systems and methods for making a cross-site storage solution resilient towards mediator unavailability are provided. According to one embodiment, a stretched storage system is operable to bring a mediator associated with a primary and secondary distributed storage system back into the role of an arbitrator for peered consistency groups (CGs). A mediator reseed status indicator is maintained for multiple CGs to identify when the mediator's status information for a CG is stale. When the mediator becomes available and a local CG is identified as the subject of a mediator reseed process, the master node of the primary that hosts a master copy of a dataset for the local CG performs the reseed process, including: (i) causing relationship status information for the local CG to be updated on the mediator to the current state maintained by the primary; and (ii) resetting the mediator reseed status indicator.
