Abstract: An embodiment of a composition for target material separation includes: a body and one or more molecules coupled to the body and structured for functionalization of the composition. In embodiments, each of the one or more molecules can include one or more of: a linker region; a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) segment or oligo binding region; one or more barcode region(s); a unique molecule identifier; a preparation-facilitating segment; an active segment; and a molecular scissor or cleavage region, wherein various regions can be coupled together in order to provide functionality to the composition. The invention(s) also cover manufacturing of the composition and various applications of use, in the context of target material capture (e.g., from single cells or other biological material).

Abstract: A system for neutralizing airborne microorganisms includes a conditioning section for accommodating a flow of air, the conditioning section including an air inlet; an air outlet; a packing chamber located downstream relative to the air inlet, a distribution chamber located downstream relative to the packing chamber and located above the packing chamber, the distribution chamber including at least one spray nozzle for spraying a liquid desiccant into the distribution chamber towards the packing chamber; a sump located below the packing chamber; a pump for propelling the liquid desiccant from the sump to the at least one spray nozzle; a droplet collection chamber located downstream relative to the at least one spray nozzle for removing droplets from the flow of air flowing through the droplet collection chamber; and a UV disinfection chamber located downstream relative to the droplet collection chamber and upstream relative to the air outlet.

Abstract: The first roller dies will perforate, puncture the metal strip after the strip goes through the front guide. After the perforation the metal strip can then be corrugated. This is an improvement over punching the metal strip. Punching the metal, rotary punch, requires and extra step and leaves metal scrap, which is why punching metal for the first rolls would clog the machine and cause damage to the machine. The results of these tiny holes in the cylindrical duct help muffle the vibration and other noises from the motorized fan down the ductwork. The cylindrical perforated duct acts like a muffler. Air conditioning, bathroom exhaust fans, kitchen exhaust fans noise can me great reduced cheaply and efficiently. This perforated duct will be used with a vapor barrier and/or insulation.

Abstract: A component subsystem and a method for authenticating the component subsystem. The component subsystem may be installed in a host device. The method can include an authentication protocol, wherein the host device sends a test voltage value to the component subsystem which, in turn, generates a test voltage based on the test voltage value. The test voltage is applied to a test cell that includes a wordline, a bitline, and a memory film. A response voltage is read from the bitline and compared to an expected value. If the response voltage matches the expected value, host device and/or component subsystem functionality is enabled. If the response voltage does not match the expected value, the host device and/or component subsystem functionality is disabled.

Abstract: The PROCESS TRANSFORMATION AND TRANSITIONING APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS (“PTT”) transform unoptimized locally-deployable baseline processes via PTT components into custom globally optimized processes and transition materials. In one implementation, the PTT obtains a baseline process optimization request via a processor, including a unoptimized locally-deployable baseline process. The PTT provides a notification of receipt of the baseline process optimization request, obtains a sub-process identification input, and resolves, via the processor, the unoptimized locally-deployable baseline process into one or more baseline sub-processes. Also, the PTT accesses a process template database for sub-process templates matching the resolved baseline sub-processes, and identifies, via the processor, sub-process templates matching the resolved baseline sub-processes using a matching procedure.

Abstract: An improved method and system for managing the traceability of numerical, alphabetical, alphanumeric, character, or string entities such as critical constants or key calculations, equations, functions, and procedures that automatically enables the traceability of information entities without requiring significant manual intervention by a system user. The system allows a user to enter critical information such a critical constant or key calculation into a first document. When the user copies/exports the critical information from the first document and pastes/imports the information to a second document, the system automatically generates meta-data describing the provenance of the information, and propagates the provenance meta-data from the first document to the second document.

Abstract: A memory device authentication method that includes providing a memory device in a host device, and providing both an encryption algorithm, triggering the encryption algorithm during writing of data in the memory device, wherein the encryption algorithm allters the written data and generates a device altered data, then storing the written data in the memory device, running the encryption algorithm in the host device on the data written in the memory device and generating a host altered data, the verifying authenticity of the memory device by comparing the device altered data and the host alerted data. An authentication device and associated system that includes a host device that comprises a unit, a first encryption algorithm that is stored in the host device, and a second encryption algorithm, identical to the first encryption algorithm, that is permanently stored in a memory of the unit.

Abstract: This document describes the design and control of a flexible, electronic display screen mechanism. The display may emit, reflect, or otherwise control visible and invisible light such that a viewer may see graphical shapes, text based characters, or time varying images on the screen. The flexibility of the display screen allows it to be physically bent, curved, wrapped, or molded without causing breakage or otherwise deteriorating the performance of the device. This flexibility allows these displays to be used, for example, within items of clothing.
