Abstract: The present disclosure relates to immunoassays for NF-L performed on liquid samples derived from physiological fluids such as venous blood to detect the presence or absence of a physiological condition by quantifying one or a combination of NF-L determinations at concentrations indicative of the condition.

Abstract: Disclosed herein include systems, methods, compositions, and kits for full-length whole transcriptome analysis (WTA). Some embodiments comprise 5?-based, 3?-based, and internal-based gene expression profiling. Immune repertoire profiling methods are also provided in some embodiments.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides new approaches in developing templated polymer-based chemical receptors. At least some embodiments of the invention use a stimuli-responsive polymer [e.g., poly-Nisopropylacrylamide (pNIPAM)] as a polymer backbone with the incorporation of functional monomers (for analyte recognition). In at least some embodiments of the invention, vinylferrocene may be used as a redox-active label for electrochemical transduction.

Abstract: The present invention provides hollow microcarriers for cell culture. The hollow microcarriers form a shell around a hollow interior and can be opened to permit cell infiltration or harvesting. The hollow microcarriers protect cells from hydrodynamic shear stress without hindering the diffusion of nutrients in and out of their hollow interior.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are antimicrobial elastic support bandages including a plurality of warp threads extending along at least a portion of the length thereof and including non-antimicrobial warp regions and antimicrobial warp regions arranged in an alternating fashion across the width thereof, wherein (a) a non-antimicrobial warp region comprises an elastic material that is stretchable in the direction of the length, (b) an antimicrobial warp region comprises (i) a flexible fiber coupled to an antimicrobial metal, and (ii) an elastic material that is stretchable in the direction of the length, wherein the flexible fiber is coupled to the elastic material, and (c) at least a portion of the warp threads are separated by about 3 microns to about 20 microns; and further including a plurality of weft threads extending across at least a portion of the width and comprising a biocompatible material, wherein at least some of the weft threads are separated by about 3 microns to about 20 microns, wherein at least a portion

Abstract: The invention is of an improved computer workstation, which provides a comfortable ergonomically correct height adjustable workstation that is stable, adjustable for computer equipment, easily maneuverable, visually unobtrusive, and cost effective. Applicant's workstation uses a telescoping vertical support for the monitor that eliminates the common unadjustable vertical supports of typical desks/workstations and thus provides greater space for user comfort. Additionally, the workstation uses expandable support shelves for additional storage space and stability as well as adjustable support mechanisms to improve keyboard location.
