Abstract: Liquid formulations of insulin that contain physically and chemically stable insulin but do not contain preservatives or stabilizers are provided. The formulations also lack surfactants. The formulations are useful for various modes of delivery including pulmonary delivery.

Abstract: A method for facilitating the testing of a data sample involves a computing device carrying out the following actions: displaying a data sample on a user interface; receiving, via the user interface, a selection of a test to be performed on the data sample; receiving, via the user interface, an input of a result of the test; generating, in a graph database, a vertex representing a visual indicator corresponding to the input result; and creating, in the graph database, an association between the vertex representing the visual indicator and a vertex representing a file containing the displayed data sample.

Abstract: According to an implementation, a host computing device receives, from a first computing device, a data collection request of a first user. The data collection request indicates a data point (whose characteristics are defined in a mark-up language schema) that is to be the subject of the data collection and identifies a second user as provider of a value for the data point. The host computing device notifies the second user of the data collection request and receives, from a second computing device, a request of the second user for the data point to be assigned a plurality of categories. In response to the request of the second user, the host computing device extends the mark-up language schema to characterize the plurality of categories within the mark-up language schema.

Abstract: In an example implementation, a point of sale (POS) system includes a host device having a merchant-facing touch-screen display to enable a merchant to conduct a payment transaction at a point of sale. The POS system also includes a customer-facing e-paper display integrated with the host device to display details of the transaction to a customer.

Abstract: Silicon nanohole arrays are disclosed as light absorbing structures for various devices such as solar photovoltaics. To obtain the same ultimate efficiency as a standard 300 micrometer crystalline silicon wafer, nanohole arrays require less silicon by mass. Moreover, calculations suggest that nanohole arrays may have efficiencies superior to nanorod arrays for practical thicknesses. With well-established fabrication techniques, nanohole arrays have great potential for efficient solar photovoltaics.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for automatically controlling hot glue level in a book-binding apparatus. The embodiments include monitoring glue level in a reservoir and measuring glue temperature in the reservoir. If the glue level is below a level threshold value and the glue temperature value is above a temperature threshold, the system dispenses a predetermined amount of meltable glue pellets into the reservoir.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described for ensuring a high degree of accuracy in the transmission of biometric data (e.g., from a home monitoring device) over a potentially high-noise, error-introducing communication link, such as the Internet, wireless networks, and the telephone system. An intermediate biometric data transmission device is used to receive biometric data from a home monitoring device. The intermediate device encapsulates the raw data packets (which include a checksum) from the home monitoring device in an intermediate data packet with its own checksums. The intermediate device data packet is transmitted over a communication medium to a remote data repository, such as a health data management system. There, the checksums of the intermediate data packet are checked to ensure that the transmission was error free and then the checksums of the original raw biometric data packet are checked using device-specific CRC algorithms stored at the remote system.
