Abstract: A device for providing a droplet of a liquid stored in an interior of a vial is disclosed that includes a support body and a resilient dome portion mounted to the support body to form a chamber having air, with the dome portion being configured to create an air flow when activated by compression. The support body includes a vial seat, a nozzle, and air flow and transfer conduits. The support body is arranged, when the vial is received by the vial seat, such that the air flow conduit establishes an air connection between the vial interior and the chamber, the transfer conduit establishes a fluid connection between the vial and the nozzle, and, upon activation of the dome portion, the air flow delivers air into the vial that causes liquid to be transferred from the vial to the nozzle through the transfer conduit.

Abstract: A device for transferring a liquid from a first vial to a second vial is disclosed having a dome portion configured to create an air flow when activated by compression and re-expansion, and a support body tightly supporting the dome portion to form a chamber with air therein. The support body includes first and second vial seats, and a transfer conduit. The first and second vial seats are arranged to receive the first and second vials. When the first and second vials are received in the first and second vial seats, the transfer conduit is arranged to establish a fluid connection between the first vial and the second vial. Upon activation of the dome portion, air is delivered into the first vial, thereby creating a pressure rise in the first vial which causes the liquid to transfer from the first vial to the second vial through the transfer conduit.

Abstract: A method for error management is provided. The method comprises receiving a message call request regarding an error event generated by a software application. The message call request comprises a message ID associated with an error type. In response to the call request a message cache is searched for the message ID. If the ID is in the cache, an error message associated with the ID is returned. The error message provides a description of the error and suggested remedial action. If the message ID is not in the cache, the error message is fetched from a message repository that contains error messages corresponding to respective message IDs. The fetched error message is loaded into the cache and returned. Message call request data is stored in a metrics repository. The message call request data comprises frequency metrics that describe how often the message ID is received.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to methods for preparing a target polypeptide from a mixture including the target polypeptide. The method may include contacting the mixture to a hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) apparatus including multiple chromatographic zones. The method may further include passing the target polypeptide through the outlets of at least a first zone and a second zone of the HIC apparatus. A residence time for the mixture including the target polypeptide in a first zone may be approximately the same as a residence time of one or more mobile phases in the second zone.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to synthesizing one or more properties for optimizing one or more operations in a well. Embodiments include receiving measurements or qualitative indicators of one or more parameters in association with performing operations in the well. Embodiments include providing, based on the measurements, one or more inputs to a machine learning algorithm (MLA) that has been trained using historical or training well data. Embodiments include determining, based on one or more outputs from the MLA, one or more synthesized properties relating to the well, wherein the one or more synthesized properties comprise a synthesized pore-pressure at, near, or ahead of a bit position. Embodiments include determining, based on the one or more synthesized properties, one or more optimized parameters relating to at least one of: drilling the well; steering the well; or stimulating a reservoir.

Abstract: A computerized data transfer system allows data transfers to be initiated over a network between senders and recipients. Individual senders initiate data transfers over the network by selecting a recipient from a list at a sender device. The system includes a data store of sender specific recipients, a data transfer history data store of past transfers; and a master participant data store storing profiles of recipients for which transfers can be initiated. The system includes a computing device that for selected senders, retrieves entries of the data store of sender specific recipients, master participant data store and data transfer history data store; generates a predicted transfer profile for each recipient for the sender, based on past data transfers and the master participant data store to identify deviations therefrom; and updates the data store of sender specific recipients for the selected sender to update entries for recipients associated with identified deviations.
