  • Publication number: 20200165297
    Abstract: Herein is reported a method for the purification of an antibody directly captured from clarified cell culture supernatants using Streamline CST and/or Capto MMC, wherein especially product related (aggregates and fragments) and process related impurities (host cell protein, media components) could efficiently be removed, resulting in a preparation with a purity comparable to classical protein A affinity chromatography.

  • Patent number: 10169282
    Abstract: A serial bus is provided with a device (sometimes herein referred to as an I2C serializer device) including circuitry and machine logic that operates as follows: when one of the master devices is using the bus for data communication, then the other master(s) will receive a wait signal until the bus becomes available again. This wait signal allows the master devices to wait as a “hardware response,” rather than requiring the master devices to be equipped with software and/or firmware to control the operation of waiting until the serial bus is available. In some embodiments, the use of the I2C serializer device allows a bus operating under a bus serialization protocol (for example, I2C) to be simultaneously connected to multiple master devices even in the case that one, or more, master device(s) do not include any currently conventional form of multi-master support.

  • Patent number: 9749985
    Abstract: A beacon device is provided in proximity to a computing system within a computing center. A request to locate the computing system in the computing center is triggered on a central control unit. In response to the request to locate the computing system, the control unit generates specification data for a unique radio signal identifier, sends an activation request and the specification data to the beacon device, and provides the specification data to a portable device and stores the specification data on the portable device.

  • Patent number: 9335183
    Abstract: A method is presented for reliably operating at least one sensor connected to a central control unit. Each sensor senses a sensor value for its sensor parameter and creates an interrupt to the control unit when its sensor value is outside a sensor value range limited by an upper and a lower threshold. Upon generation of an interrupt by a sensor, a modified sensor value range is calculated so that the sensor value causing the interrupt lies within the modified sensor value range, and the modified sensor value range is applied to the respective sensor. The method further includes repeatedly verifying correct behavior of each sensor. A computer-readable medium, a computer program product, and a system for executing the above-summarized method are also presented.
