Abstract: Malicious activity can be detected and prevented in real-time or otherwise. For example, a system of the present disclosure can receive a request from a user to obtain access to an entity, determine data objects based on the request, and access data-object network definitions corresponding to the determined data objects. The system can also receive a profile for the user indicating behavioral information relating to the user. The system can then determine a likelihood that the request is associated with malicious activity based on (i) the data objects, (ii) the profile, and (iii) the data-object network definitions. The system can allow or deny the user access to the entity based on the likelihood that the request is associated with malicious activity.

Abstract: A compound of formula (I) for use in the prevention or treatment of a bacterial infection wherein RP1 is either methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, cyclohexyl or phenyl; RP2 is selected from methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, cyclohexyl and phenyl; RP3 is either ethyl, isopropyl, cyclohexyl, phenyl or pyridyl; A is either S or Se; RA is selected from wherein each of Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4 and Y9 is independently selected from CH or N, wherein at least three of Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4 and Y9 are CH; V is selected from O, CH—ORO1, N—CO2—RC2 or N—RN2; one of V, Y6, Y7 and Y8 is selected from CH and N, and the others are CH; X is selected from NH, S or O; RC1 is selected from O—RO2 or NHRN1; RO1 is selected from H and C1-3 unbranched alkyl; RO2 is C1-3 unbranched alkyl; RN1 is selected from H and C1-3 unbranched alkyl; RN2 is C1-3 unbranched alkyl; RC2 is either C1-3 unbranched alkyl or C3-4 branched alkyl; RC3 is selected from C1-3 unbranched alkyl and C2H4CO2H; RC4 is either H or Me; RC5 is either H or Me; RC6 represents one or two optional methy

Abstract: A positive displacement fluid flow meter comprises a chamber having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. A rotor is displaceable within the chamber, rotation of the rotor being related to the volume of fluid passing through the chamber. The chamber has a surface proximate which an end surface of the rotor passes, the chamber surface and/or the rotor end surface having at least one recess to retain at least a portion of debris carried by the metered fluid. The recess is preferably formed so as not to provide fluid, communication, from the inlet to the outlet across the rotor end surface. A lid closes an end of the chamber which in use is subject to the pressure of fluid within the chamber. The lid is engaged at its periphery to a wall of the chamber, and is preferably flexible adjacent its periphery to reduce the transmission of bending stresses between the periphery of the lid and the remainder thereof.

Abstract: A filtering apparatus (50) for removing noxious gases from an environment including: a source of compressed gas (60) connected to a regulating valve (62) to regulate a supply of compressed gas; at least one airflow device (5) including a compressed gas inlet (10) for receiving gas from the supply of compressed gas at greater than ambient atmospheric pressure, the gas inlet (10) being operably connected to the regulating valve (62); and a permeable noxious gas filter (55) arranged in gaseous communication with the airflow device (5); wherein the supply of compressed gas to the airflow device (5) causes the airflow device (5) to draw ambient air (64) from the environment through a primary intake (42), thereby generating a flow of air through the noxious gas filter (55) and causing the substantial removal of noxious gases from the flow of air.
