  • Background transfer service for applications on mobile devices
    Patent number: 11006369
    Abstract: The subject disclosure is directed towards a background transfer service that provides platform-level support for third party applications to queue data transfers to run in the background, including when the application is not running in the foreground. Applications may thus perform downloading and uploading tasks in the background; however the background transfer service manages the data transfer requests so as to limit each background application's ability to interfere with foreground application operations, that is, by controlling resource usage according to one or more policies.

  • Smart Microplates and Microarrays
    Publication number: 20210031191
    Abstract: This invention discloses a design of microplates and microarrays to improve utility. The new design constructs a physical flux barrier that limits thermocapillary and other mass transfer contributions to the heterogeneous accumulation of reactant at the surface of a well or array address. The improved control of reactant delivery results in a much more uniform distribution of reactant across an address, thereby improving the accuracy of the measured response.

  • Solid Phase Microextraction Membranes Impregnated with Gold Nanoparticles: Creation of Novel SERS-Enhancing Substrates
    Publication number: 20210031166
    Abstract: This invention discloses an approach is improve the strength and reproducibility of the signal generated in FTAs using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) through the design of an approach to generate the plasmonically-enhanced signal for SERS, surface-enhanced infrared (SEIRA), and other enhanced spectroscopies. The design incorporates: (1) a particle-particle coupling strategy that is triggered by the selective capture of an analyte to a particle that has been immobilized on a membrane and has been modified to act as a capture substrate; (2) the selective tagging of the captured analyte by a nanoparticle also designed to generate an amplified plasmonic signal upon tagging; and (3) the incorporation of an internal nanoparticle standard to account for fluctuations in flow rates and flow paths.

  • Simplifying Solid-Phase Microextraction (SPME)-Based Analytical Measurements of Exceedingly Small-Volume Samples by Application of Negligible Depletion
    Publication number: 20210033602
    Abstract: This invention discloses an approach regarding the use of solid-phase microextractions (SPMEs) in the analytical, bioanalytical, combinatorial sciences, and all other applicable areas of measurement science. The approach applies to the analysis of exceedingly small volumes of a liquid specimen (10s-100s of ?L), and how the concepts of negligible depletion (ND) can be used within the context of tradeoff between extractive (reaction) kinetics, extractive capacity, and sample flow rate as a means to obviate the need to deliver accurately a small volume sample for SPME analysis, improving the ease-of-use for a number of different SPME-based measurements including, for example, disease markers in immunoassays for health care.

  • Immobilized Enzymatic Digestion of Blood Products for Diagnostic Testing
    Publication number: 20210033620
    Abstract: This invention discloses a pretreatment approach for blood and bodily fluids to remove unwanted protein interferences in the measurement of analytes. Enzymes either contained in a cartridge or immobilized on a solid support break down proteins that complex with the analyte to shield it from detection. This pretreatment significantly enhances the detectability of analytes and does not require subsequent clean-up steps that would normally be required to ensure the functionality of the analysis method, thereby, creating a simple yet powerful approach for sample pretreatment in a variety of settings ranging from a complex laboratory infrastructure to a field deployable application.
