The invention also proposes an apparatus for determining core temperature of food and a food processing device.

Abstract: The invention discloses a touch interaction based search method and apparatus, comprising: receiving a trigger instruction from a user for conducting search based on a current interface; receiving a touch slide operation performed by the user on the current interface, and determining a slide area according to the touch slide operation; and based on the slide area, extracting an object therein and conducting search with respect to the object. Employment of the invention can solve the problem of slow and inconvenient search via a keyboard (including a soft keyboard), save operations such as opening a search box, copy & paste, etc., make the search operation simple and easy, solve the problem of search if one wants on a touch interaction based terminal, save time and improve user's experience.

Abstract: A heating module for a water heater includes a heater and a housing mounted to the heater. The heater includes a conductive pipe and a heating film attached to the outside of the conductive pipe. A room is defined between the housing and the heater for transferring heat to the water. The heating module is located in the tank of the water heater. When water enters into the tank, the conductive pipe transfers thermal energy to the water flowing through the conductive pipe by way of thermal convention. The water in the tank is heated by the housing by way of thermal conduction. The temperature of the water in the tank is quickly increased by the two ways.

Abstract: The invention relates to humanized anti-human Factor D monoclonal antibodies, their nucleic acid and amino acid sequences, the cells and vectors that harbor these antibodies and their use in the preparation of compositions and medicaments for treatment of diseases and disorders associated with excessive or uncontrolled complement activation. These antibodies are useful for diagnostics, prophylaxis and treatment of disease.

Abstract: A device for sustained delivery of a poorly water soluble drug is described. A drug reservoir within the device, when in operation, contains an aqueous suspension of the drug mixed with a suspension of an excipient that, in one embodiment, generates acidic groups for a sustained period of time to maintain a desired pH in the aqueous suspension that in turn provides a constant concentration of a soluble form of the drug.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel polyalkylene glycol compounds and methods of using them. In particular, compounds comprising a novel polyethylene glycol conjugate are used alone, or in combination with antiviral agents to treat a viral infection, such as chronic hepatitis C.

Abstract: A phosphor, having a general formula of K2[Si1-xGex]yF6:Mn1-y4+. The phosphor is excited to emit a light having a first main emission peak with a first maximum emission intensity and a first dominant wavelength, wherein a relative emission intensity S of the light of the phosphor is constantly greater than 85% across an temperature of the phosphor between 300 K and 470 K during operation, wherein S=(IT/IRT)*100%, IRT and IT are the first maximum emission intensity when the temperature of the phosphor is at 300 K and T during operation respectively, and 300 K<T?470K.

Abstract: The present invention provides a phosphor represented by the following formula: K2[Ge1-xF6]:Mnx4+, wherein 0<x<0.2. The phosphor has a hexagonal phase of a P63mc space group. The present invention also provides a method for fabricating the above phosphor. The present invention further provides a light-emitting device and a backlight module employing the same.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media can be operable to facilitate transportation of a communication while providing consistent quality of service treatment of the communication throughout the transport of the communication from a client device to an upstream wide-area network, as well as for communications transported from a wide-area network to a client device. In embodiments, quality of service information associated with a communication can be translated at one or more various customer premise equipment devices and/or network components into a format that is compatible with an interface that is to be used to output the communication.

Abstract: Embodiments provide a method for reassembling a data file from a starting file fragment and a plurality of file fragments stored on a digital storage device. The method includes determining, from the plurality of file fragments, one or more matched file fragments which match the starting file fragment based on a first predetermined criterion; associating the one or more matched file fragments with the starting file fragment; and determining one or more candidate data files based on the one or more matched file fragments. The method further includes checking if more than one file fragments have been determined to match the starting file fragment based on the first predetermined criterion.
