Abstract: In one embodiment, a disk shape determining and labeling system includes a first module configured to determine a shape of a non-round disk. A second module determines an orientation of the non-round disk. The labeling system then applies a visible pattern to the disk, wherein the labeling is performed according to the shape and the orientation of the non-round disk.

Abstract: A method of creating an archived file in a manner that allows an application to distinguish between one or more data files and one or more print files in the archived file includes generating a manifest file and including the manifest file in the archived file. The manifest file indicates to the application a file location within the archived file associated with the one or more data files and with the one or more print files.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a disk labeling system is configured to use calibration indicia to produce calibration data. A disk is then marked using a laser in a first position. The laser is then deflected from the first position into a second position, by applying an input according to the calibration data. The disk is then marked using the laser in the second position.

Abstract: A method for labeling an optically writable label side of an optical disc of one embodiment of the invention is disclosed which includes at least one of the following. First, the method may multiply pass over a track of the optically writable label side of the optical disc with an optical marking mechanism, such that the optical marking mechanism writes to the track during each pass. Second, the method may advance the optical marking mechanism from the track to a next track of the optically writable label side of the optical disc, such that a starting position on the track is radially non-collinear with a starting position on the next track.

Abstract: The present invention relates to identification of polypeptides useful for generating antibodies specific for non-human IgE, particularly equine IgE. The invention, therefore, also relates to antibodies that specifically bind to IgE and methods to detect IgE using the antibodies. The invention also provides a kit for detection of IgE.
