  • Patent number: 12203584
    Abstract: Provided herein are products, methods, and kits, for use in regulating the temperature of an object. The present invention relates to thermal insulating liners for regulating the temperature of perishable goods or temperature sensitive products. The thermal insulating liners generally may be dimensioned to fit within a container. The thermal insulating liners may be quickly collapsed and reconstructed to improve stackability and diminish the amount of space required to store the thermal insulating liners prior to use.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20220044255
    Abstract: A system and method mitigate configuration change risk for a managed service in a customer environment. Reconfiguration commands sent to a management interface are intercepted and provided to a mitigation service executing in the customer environment. The mitigation service computes a risk rating for each such command based on a wide variety of factors. If the risk is low, then the mitigation service passes the command transparently to the management interface for execution. However, if the risk is too high, then the mitigation service requests an authorization code before the command can be executed. The acceptable level of risk may be set jointly by the customer and the managed service provider according to a service level agreement. Authorization codes can confirm performance of many mitigation actions, including approval by the customer or a supervising manager, studying relevant documentation, and clean execution of the command in a testing environment.

  • Publication number: 20150066784
    Abstract: The present invention involves methods, systems, and apparatus for providing an automated clickwrap and browsewrap agreement system. In one aspect, a method includes providing an electronically securable agreement management system; allowing access to a client; associating websites with the client; storing client agreements; receiving and recording end-user identifiers; receiving and responding to client queries; and transmitting the client agreement to the client in response to the client queries. Other aspects include collecting end-user identifiers; transmitting the end-user; populating the client agreement; transmitting identifiers, queries, and agreements through an API; collecting identifiers and populating client agreements through a system module; running the system on the same server as the client website; performing statistics and analytics on stored data; and populating a client historical agreement webpage.

  • Patent number: 6054311
    Abstract: After the cryopreservation of living cells, the cells in a post-thaw recovery stage are supported by a gas permeable medium. This medium comprises at least one polyfluorinated compound. This compound may be gassed, for example with oxygen where oxygenation is required.

  • Patent number: 5939315
    Abstract: Processes for producing various heterologous polypeptides which when expressed are either incorrectly processed and hence asssociated with the surface of the host cell or are not processed to mature form. More specifically, processes for the production of heterologous non-human carbonyl hydrolases expressed either in host cells incapable of producing enzymatically active endoprotease or host cells deficient in enzymatically active extracellular endoprotease are disclosed. Such non-human carbonyl hydrolases generally are incapable of autoproteolytic maturation and become associated with the surface of expression hosts which are deficient in enzymatically active extracellular endoprotease. Processes for preparing non-human carbonyl hydrolase and heterologous polypeptides which are expressed as part of a fusion polypeptide are also disclosed, as well as non-human carbonyl hydrolases which are substantially free of the host cell membrane with which they are normally associated.
