  • Patent number: 9081626
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer readable medium are provided. According to an embodiment of the invention, a method includes, translating source code written in a first language into source code written in an intermediary language. The method further includes converting the source code written in the intermediary language into source code written in a second language by applying contextual recognition and reconstruction to the source code written in the intermediary language to generate the source code written in the second language. The method further includes prompting a user to customize the conversion of the source code written in the intermediary language into the source code written in the second language.

  • Patent number: 9040249
    Abstract: Methods and reagents are provided for determining the activation state of a signal transduction pathway signaling protein. There exists a need in the art for methods that can monitor the efficacy of a signal transduction inhibitor in a patient. Other needs exist for detecting and monitoring certain disease or disorders that are associated with aberrant activation of a signal transduction pathway signaling protein. The present assay provides a highly sensitive assay that is also useful in patient populations in which obtaining a large cellular sample is difficult, for example, neonates.

  • Patent number: 7837923
    Abstract: Load-bearing articles are manufactured from shape defining compressible cores and thermoplastic shells. The manufacture of these articles requires specific methods and tools. Articles that can be manufactured using these methods include relatively lightweight pallets with high load-bearing capacity.

  • Publication number: 20100261204
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods for establishing a composite marker profile for a sample derived from an individual suspected having a neoplastic condition. A composite marker profile of the invention allows for identification of prognostically and therapeutically relevant subgroups of neoplastic conditions and prediction of the clinical course of an individual. The methods of the invention provide tools useful in choosing a therapy for an individual afflicted with a neoplastic condition, including methods for assigning a risk group, methods of predicting an increased risk of relapse, methods of predicting an increased risk of developing secondary complications, methods of choosing a therapy for an individual, methods of determining the efficacy of a therapy in an individual, and methods of determining the prognosis for an individual.

  • Patent number: 7803523
    Abstract: This invention is directed to a method for preparation of a biological sample for measurement of protein epitopes that allows for the preservation of intracellular protein epitopes and detection of signal transduction pathways based on the ability to capture transient activation states of the epitopes. The method provided by the invention allows for the rapid fixation of biological samples containing red blood cells, to ensure that epitopes of signal transduction molecules and other intracellular protein epitopes are preserved in the active state. The method of the invention further allows for lysis of red blood cells, thereby making it a useful method for cytometric analysis of biological samples, including, for example, whole blood, bone marrow aspirates, peritoneal fluids, and other red blood cell containing samples. The invention also provides a method to recover or “unmask” epitopes on intracellular antigens that have been made inaccessible by the cross linking fixative necessary to fix the sample.
