  • Publication number: 20240031365
    Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for identifying an application (e.g., accessing application) that is attempting to access a resource. In some examples, access may be managed by an authentication service. When an access request is received at the authentication service from an application on a client device, the authentication service may ask the application to communicate with an identification agent on the client device. The identification agent may perform one or more tests to discover the identity of the application. In some cases, the identification agent may send the identity of the application to the authentication service. The authentication service may then allow or deny access by the accessing application to the resource based at least in part on the discovered identity.

  • Patent number: 11754436
    Abstract: A high-frequency dynamic pressure transducer calibration system and method is provided. The method directs a source onto a diaphragm of a dynamic pressure transducer. An oscillating voltage at a target frequency (or range of frequencies) is generated. The oscillating voltage is coupled to an electrical connector of the dynamic pressure transducer. A deflection pattern of the diaphragm is recorded. The dynamic pressure transducer is calibrated by correlating magnitude of the deflection pattern with the oscillating voltage as a function of the target frequency (or range of frequencies).

  • Patent number: 11633461
    Abstract: Provided herein are deglycosylating enzymes that remove a broad range of N-glycans from N-glycosylated proteins. Further provided are methods of recombinantly producing and expressing the deglycosylating enzymes. The presently described deglycosylating enzymes can be used to produce free glycans for characterization, and for prebiotic and immunostimulatory uses. In addition, the presently described deglycosylating enzymes can be used to produce deglycosylated proteins for characterization, to improve digestion, and to reduce immunogenicity.

  • Patent number: 11591874
    Abstract: A packer for anchoring and sealing to a tubular in a well, the packer including a packer element, an anchoring arrangement, a setting mechanism and a release mechanism. The release mechanism holds a thin-walled section of tubing in the packer in tension using a biasing mechanism. On severing the tubing, the bias releases an engagement mechanism which allows the anchor arrangement and the packing element to move relative to the body and thereby unset the packer. An embodiment of a dual bore packer is described. A method of well isolation is described, with an assembly including the dual bore packer. The primary bore forms the short string and a secondary bore forms the long string. By severing the short string the integrity of the long string is maintained to pull lower devices on the long string and the short string does not require tension below the packer to release.

  • Publication number: 20220280581
    Abstract: The combination of specific immunoglobulins plus activated Bifidobacteria strains or other beneficial bacteria is described with the designed efficacy to colonize unstable microbiome communities in humans or other animals, restoring the keystone Bifidobacteria strains or other beneficial bacteria to compositional and functional importance in the intestine and improve overall health and reduce pathogenic infections in the host. Secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA), when bound via specific glycans to select commensal bacteria grown on human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs), enhances the colonization potential of commensals through protection from intestinal digestion, enhancing attachment, and dampening host immune response.
