Patent number: 11920188Abstract: Provided herein is a method for detecting the presence of clade variants in the COVID-19 virus in a human sample and/or an environmental sample. Samples are processed to obtain total RNA. The RNA is used as a template in a combined reverse transcription and amplification reaction to obtain fluorescent COVID-19 virus amplicons. These amplicons are hybridized on a microarray with nucleic acid probes having sequences that discriminate among the various clade variants. The microarray is imaged to detect the clade variant. Also provided is a method of distinguishing each clade variant from others by generating an intensity distribution profile from the image, which is unique to each of the clade variants.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Inventors: Frederick Henry Eggers, Benjamin Alan Katchman, Fushi Wen, Candy Mavis Rivas, Cory Scott Newland, Michael Edward Hogan

Patent number: 11623715Abstract: A motion damper for structures includes a housing coupled to a structure such that the housing moves in correspondence with the structure. The housing includes a wall with a vent, and has an air chamber therein in fluid communication with the vent. A piston is sealed within the housing for one-dimensional motion therein. A rigid plate is disposed within the housing's air chamber. The plate is disposed between the piston and the vent, and is spaced apart from and fixedly coupled to the piston such that the plate moves in correspondence with the one-dimensional motion of the piston. At least one spring is mounted in the housing and is coupled to the plate for applying a force thereto that is in opposition to the one-dimensional motion of the piston.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2022Date of Patent: April 11, 2023Assignee: United States of America as represented by the Administrator of NASAInventors: Jeffrey L.
