Abstract: A novel system and method to facilitate an issuing and storing key/keycard system includes a network, a cloud server, a terminal, a cabinet control server, and at least an issuing and storing key/keycard cabinet. The customer/ the user, through the terminal, can sign up/ receive authentication methods to verify user rights/owner of key/keycard to the cloud server. The issuing and storing key/keycard cabinet is used in issuing and storing the customer/user's key/keycard. The cabinet control server controls and operates the issuing and storing key/keycard cabinet. The invention is to provide a method of issuing and storing key/keycard includes steps: i) the customer/user register/verify user rights/owner of key/keycard to the cloud server; ii) the customer/user takes/stores key/keycards at the issuing and storing key/keycard cabinet; iii) synchronization data between the cloud server with the cabinet control server.

Abstract: In accordance with some implementations, various embodiments of a guidewire or catheter having an elongate core with a helical section are provided. In accordance with one implementation, a guidewire is provided. The guidewire includes a core wire having a proximal end, a distal end and is defined by an outer surface between the proximal end and the distal end of the core wire. The core wire has a centerline that traverses the length of the core wire from the proximal end to the distal end of the core wire. The centerline is located approximately at the center of mass along the core wire within the outer surface of the core wire. Preferably, the core wire has a substantially straight proximal portion and a helically curved segment located distally with respect to the proximal portion. The centerline of the core wire is substantially straight along the straight proximal portion, and, the centerline is helically curved along the helically curved segment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and a method of using the system to detect any dried phosphates on a surface, more particularly to a system and a method of using the system for disinfection compliance monitoring of hydrogen peroxide. The system may be in a form of a detection kit.

Abstract: The antimicrobial foaming composition of the present invention comprises a cationic active ingredient, a cationic compatible surfactant, a foam booster, a foam structure enhancing agent, dermal adjuvants, and a carrier. The present antimicrobial compositions are free of the antimicrobial agents triclosan (i.e., 2,4,4?-trichloro-2?hydroxy-diphenylether) and lower alcohols. They are also free of anionic surfactants. The foaming compositions have rapid cidal activity, provide stable, copious foam, and exhibit enhanced tissue (e.g. skin) compatibility.
