Abstract: An antibiological sorbent can include sorbent material (e.g., porous carbon, activated carbon, inorganic carbon, organic carbon, etc.), antibiological material, optionally a functionalizing material, and/or any other suitable material. The antibiological material (and/or the functionalizing material) can coat, intercalate within (e.g., within a porous network of), form structures on, be disposed on, bind to, and/or otherwise be interfaced to the sorbent material. A method for manufacturing the antibiological sorbent can include: mixing sorbent material with a precursor; optionally, functionalizing (e.g., activating) the sorbent material; forming antibiological material from the precursor; optionally, post-processing (e.g., washing) the resulting material; and/or any suitable steps.

Abstract: The subject matter disclosed herein is generally directed to methods and systems for screening phenotypes associated with genetic elements and identifying genetic elements at the single-cell level using optical barcodes. A major advantage offered by this approach is the ability to screen for any cellular phenotype that can be identified by high-resolution microscopy—including live-cell phenotypes, protein localization, or highly multiplexed expression profile and mRNA localization in conjunction with a large array of genetic elements applied as a pool in a single test volume.

Abstract: A secure verification system 1 and a method of providing a secure verification system 1, the system 1 including a first user input terminal 5, a key generating device 29, a server 3 and a second user input terminal 7. The first user input terminal 5 enables a user to input at least three different types of personal identification information and transmit the input personal identification information to the server 3 for storage. The key generating device 29 generates and issues a key associated with the input personal identification information. The personal identification information and the information indicative of the key are stored at the server 3. The second user input terminal 7 enables the issued key to be authenticated and the stored personal identification information associated with the key to be retrieved from the server 3 and used to verify the identity of a user of the second user input terminal 7.

Abstract: Various systems and methods for call center processing are provided. As just one example, a method for call center processing is described that includes providing a call center system. The call center system includes a business object function implemented in a script language, and a communication layer. The method further includes receiving a data set, and applying the business object function to the data set. This application of the business object function to the data set creates a business object. The communication layer is applied to the business object which results in a conversion of the business object to an XML string that may be transmitted to a server.

Abstract: A photovoltaic roofing system includes a plurality of roofing panels each having a photovoltaic device thereupon and each including an electrical connector engageable with a connector on another panel. The panels includes upstanding flanges and a batten and seam roof construction may be readily configured by interconnecting the panels, fastening them to the roof and covering adjoining flanges with the battens.

Abstract: A photovoltaic window assembly suitable for use in building and vehicular applications. The window assembly includes an optically-transmissive substrate having one or more photovoltaic devices disposed thereon. A decorative template having cut-outs coextensive with each of the photovoltaic devices is disposed on the substrate such that the photovoltaic devices extend through the cut-outs. A window opening is also formed in the decorative template for transmission of light. An encapsulating layer is formed on the substrate, solar cells and decorative template to protect the solar cells and assembly from environmental damage and deterioration.

Abstract: An improved method for severing a large area semiconductor device, including a substrate having a base electrode region thereupon, semiconductor body and top electrode into smaller area devices includes the steps of supporting the semiconductor device from the top electrode side thereof and applying a cutting force to the substrate side of the semiconductor device so as to cut the device without establishing short circuit contact between the substrate electrode and the top electrode thereof.
