Abstract: Arousal events can be determined for a user associated with a wearable device, such as a user wearing a wearable computing device including one or more sensors. The one or more sensors may obtain EDA information that may determine a sympathetic nervous system response of the user, which may be responsive to an arousal event or an activation. Detection of events that increase the EDA response may provide information to the user regarding arousal events and provide recommendations to the user to address the arousal events to decrease their response.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a process for electrochemically converting a reactant gas, to an electrolyser, to a gas diffusion electrode, to a method for producing a gas diffusion electrode, to a gas diffusion layer, and to the use of said gas diffusion layer and/or gas diffusion electrode. The process comprises reacting a reactant gas at a gas diffusion electrode to form a product gas and/or a liquid product, wherein the gas diffusion electrode comprises a gas diffusion layer comprising a non-porous layer that is permeable to carbon monoxide and/or carbon dioxide gas, and a porous layer, and the reactant gas comprises carbon monoxide and/or carbon dioxide.

Abstract: The present invention relates to soft gelatin capsules, to the use of the soft gelatin capsule as a food supplement, dietary supplement and health supplement, to a process for preparing the soft gelatin capsule, to the soft gelatin capsule for use in medicine and to the soft gelatin capsule for use in the treatment and/or prevention of a disease or pathology.

Abstract: Stress information can be determined for a user associated with a wearable device, such as a user wearing a wearable computing device including one or more sensors. At least some of this sensor data can be combined with relevant data provided by a user to calculate a stress score, such as may correspond to a current stress level or stress resilience level of that user. Changes in this stress score can be monitored over time, and appropriate actions taken, such as to provide information or recommendations to the user, or to modify operation of the wearable computing device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for electrochemical production of a product in an electrochemical cell comprising an extraction compartment. The extraction compartment comprises a liquid comprising a dissolved polyelectrolyte. The method comprises producing cations at an anode, producing anions at a cathode and transporting the ions through ion- selective membranes into the extraction compartment where the product is formed. The invention further relates to an electrochemical cell for use in the method.

Abstract: Methods for detecting target analytes utilizing an array of wells are advantageous for detection of low concentrations of target analytes. Use of an array of wells requires sealing of the wells. The methods provided herein utilize digital microfluidics to seal wells of an array with a fluid that is immiscible with the aqueous liquid present in the wells to prevent evaporation and contamination of the aqueous fluid during analysis of signals from the wells. The disclosed method include generating a biphasic droplet composed of the immiscible fluid and an aqueous fluid. The immiscible fluid present in the biphasic droplet is moved over the array of wells to seal the wells by electrically actuating the aqueous fluid present in the biphasic droplet which in turn pulls the immiscible fluid.

Abstract: Provided herein is a method of loading wells with a liquid droplet, or a portion thereof, wherein each liquid droplet comprises solid supports and a detergent or surfactant, such that the detergent or surfactant reduces the contact angle between the liquid droplet and the wells. Also provided is a method of detecting and quantifying an analyte of interest in a sample, which involves loading wells in an array with a liquid droplet according to aforementioned method, wherein the liquid droplet comprises an analyte captured on a solid support.
