Abstract: A glass article for a vehicle interior system (10). The glass article includes a glass sheet having first and second major surfaces with a minor surface connecting the first and second major surfaces. The glass sheet has a first side and a second side. A hinge is disposed on the second major surface of the glass sheet. The hinge divides the glass sheet between the first side and the second side. An encapsulating material is molded at least partially around the minor surface and at least partially over the second major surface. The second side of the glass sheet rotates about the hinge from a first configuration to a second configuration. In the first configuration, the first side forms a first angle with the second side, and in the second configuration, the first side forms a second angle, different from the first angle, with the second side.

Abstract: A system for maintaining relative orientation of optical fibers in an array is provided. Fibers extend parallel and include a first fiber and an adjacent fiber. The system includes a fiber holder with alignment holes configured to receive stripped fiber sections. The alignment holes extend from the first surface to the second surface, and the alignment holes include a first alignment hole configured to receive a stripped fiber section of the first fiber and an adjacent alignment hole configured to receive a stripped fiber section of the adjacent fiber. The fiber holder has a wall separating the first alignment hole and the adjacent alignment hole that permits rotation of the stripped fiber section of the adjacent fiber in the adjacent alignment hole without causing rotation of the stripped fiber section of the first fiber in the first alignment hole.

Abstract: This invention discloses a pretreatment approach for blood and bodily fluids to remove unwanted protein interferences in the measurement of analytes. Enzymes either contained in a cartridge or immobilized on a solid support break down proteins that complex with the analyte to shield it from detection. This pretreatment significantly enhances the detectability of analytes and does not require subsequent clean-up steps that would normally be required to ensure the functionality of the analysis method, thereby, creating a simple yet powerful approach for sample pretreatment in a variety of settings ranging from a complex laboratory infrastructure to a field deployable application.
