  • Patent number: 10312920
    Abstract: A data recovery circuit provides compensation for baseline wander exhibited by a data signal. An adaptive equalizer generates a recovered data signal from a data input. A level shifter and low-pass filter provide a compensation signal as a function of the recovered data signal. An adaptation engine adjusts the level of the compensation signal to compensate for baseline wander. The adaptive equalizer generates the recovered data signal as a function of the data input and the compensation signal, thereby providing accurate recovery of the data signal.

  • Publication number: 20190102466
    Abstract: An online system receives posts that include links to various external pages and presents those posts to users of the online system. When the online system determines an opportunity to present a post to a particular viewing user of the online system, the online system determines a quality metric and an associated value score for the post. The quality metric is determined as a likelihood that the viewing user will view the external page for less than a threshold time period, and is used to adjust the associated value score. The online system compares the value score of the post to the value scores of other posts and selects one or more of the compared posts for presentation to the viewing user of the online system.

  • Publication number: 20190046956
    Abstract: A wash buffer comprising a surfactant for use in affinity and cation exchange chromatography to purify proteins of interest from protein aggregates and to remove and/or inactivate viruses. When used during affinity or cation exchange chromatography for the purification of a protein of interest, such as an antibody, the wash buffer significantly improves viral clearance from the preparation, while also reducing the levels of host cell proteins and protein aggregates. Following affinity or cation exchange chromatography with the wash buffer, the protein of interest may be further purified using other chromatography and filtration operations.
