Abstract: A wet electrolytic capacitor is provided. The capacitor contains an anode comprising an anodically oxidized pellet formed from a pressed and sintered powder, a cathode, and a working electrolyte in communication with the anode and the cathode. The working electrolyte is in the form of a gel and comprises an ammonium salt of an organic acid, inorganic oxide particles, a gelation activator, an acid, and a solvent system that comprises water. The working electrolyte has a pH value of from about 5.0 to about 8.0.

Abstract: A method for automatically providing virtual support is provided. The method may include determining a level of experience associated with the end-user and members of a support personnel for a computer application. The method may further include, in response to detecting one or more first actions on the computer application, automatically generating and providing support instructions based on virtual support documentation to an end-user based on the one or more first actions and based on the level of experience associated with the end-user. The method may further include, in response to detecting one or more second actions on the computer application, automatically determining a match between a member of the support personnel and the end-user based on the level of experience associated with the end-user and the member of support personnel.

Abstract: Approaches presented herein enable delivery of educational content. More specifically, a lesson plan comprising the educational content is received. An inventory of one or more network-connected devices within a pre-determined perimeter is conducted. One or more learning activities are associated with each of the one or more network-connected devices. At least one learning activity of the one or more learning activities is selected based on the lesson plan. A curriculum comprising the lesson plan and the at least one learning activity is delivered to a user.

Abstract: A tool for providing enhanced learning content in an interconnected smart environment. The tool determines one or more objects and associated object capabilities for each of the one or more objects in the interconnected smart environment.

Abstract: A biosensor having somatic cells immobilized on an electrode formed from a biologically inert material for sensing transepithelial/transendothelial electrical resistance is provided. The biosensor includes a working electrode formed from gold, graphene, carbon nanotube, or alloys or combinations thereof, having somatic cells formed directly thereon. With such a configuration, a very small sample size may be used while still eliciting an electrical response in the presence of a target composition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing a humidity sensor based on resistive type porous Magnesium Ferrite (MgFe2O4) pellets and a humidity sensor thereof. More particularly, the present invention includes a synthesis process of preparing 30 to 40% porous MgFe2O4 pellets. The process further includes making Ohmic contacts on the porous MgFe2O4 pellets. The process is very cost effective and optimized to keep the resistance of the porous MgFe2O4 pellets in the range 200-300 M?. Further, the response and recovery time of the porous MgFe2O4 pellets to humidity is in the range of few seconds only. Further, the porous MgFe2O4 pellets can be used for humidity sensing for more than 12 months. Due to resistance stability even after long-term exposure in humidity, the porous MgFe2O4 pellets do not require flash heating.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for making and using transgenic plants that exhibit increased nitrogen storage capacity compared to wild-type plants. Methods of the invention comprise inducing overexpression of monocot-derived vegetative storage proteins (VSPs) in plants, particularly in monocots. In some embodiments, at least one nucleotide construct comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding the ZmLox6 protein or a biologically active fragment or variant thereof is introduced into a plant. Depending upon the objective, the nucleotide construct may optionally comprise an operably linked coding sequence for a vacuolar sorting signal or plastid transit peptide in order to direct storage of the ZmLox6 protein or biologically active fragment or variant thereof into the vacuolar compartment or plastid compartment, respectively, of the cells in which the VSP is expressed.
