Patents by Inventor Juliesta Elaine Sylvester

Juliesta Elaine Sylvester has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10964411
    Abstract: This invention is a novel method for analysis of data that is produced by test equipment. The preferred embodiment is data produced by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) equipment, using industry standard methods to generate the initial data from the test equipment. The invention is a method for processing of the data to promptly produce accurate, reliable, and meaningful data that can be used for critical decisions. The unique benefit of the method is to correct the multiple measurement and calculation errors that are inherent in the operation of laboratory equipment. Prior methods result in errors based on circumstances that are difficult to control, accuracy-related errors in machine measurements, and fundamental mathematical errors in the data processing software that used with the laboratory equipment.

  • Publication number: 20110046919
    Abstract: This invention relates to a novel method for the use of specialized equipment to significantly improve the accuracy with which enzyme activities are measured. The method establishes an internal standard mathematical curve for the measurement of relative values for each unit in a complex mixture. The novel feature of the method is that the control is an integral part of each and every sample, so that any variation in test conditions affects the control in exactly the same manner as the sample. Therefore, this novel method forces each measured sample to have a separate control internal to each sample that is exactly matched as to all possible variables. Although some prior methods claim an internal control, the prior methods provide only a rough calibration to an external control, which results in substantial deficiencies in accuracy, reliability, and efficiency.
