Abstract: The present invention provides bioengineered extracellular matrix model derived from decellularized Wharton's jelly matrix (DWJM) and methods for making and using the same. After decellularization, the DWJM is homogenized, frozen, and lyophilized in a mold to form a molded scaffold having a substantially uniform pore size, pore distribution, and matrix component distribution, and can be trimmed and shaped to any desired size. The bioengineered DWJM is able to maintain the stem cell qualities of cultured cells, which is useful in screening chemotherapy drugs that target cancers, especially cancer stem cell populations. The bioengineered DWJM possesses matrix components similar to the bone hematopoietic niche and is useful in expanding and maintaining hematopoietic stem cells as well as promoting bone regeneration and repair.

Abstract: A wastewater-lifting system and a method for operating a wastewater-lifting system guides wastewater loaded with bulky materials into a bulky material collection tank having at least one separating screen. During intake of wastewater, the bulky materials are retained in the bulky material collection tank and pre-cleaned wastewater passes into a liquid collection tank via a connection line and one or both of a pump and a bypass line connected to the connection line. During the wastewater intake a pivoting flap in the connection line closes flow to the pump except for a flushing cross section, and opens the bypass line. During a pumping operation, the pivoting flap opens the connection line from the pump and closes the bypass line.

Yet another aspect includes a programmable controller and software which automatically employ a feedback control loop to increase or decrease electrical current density to contaminant-removing electrodes.

Abstract: An online system publishes sponsored content items to users. To enable a publishing user to evaluate performance of a campaign including sponsored content items and identify modifications to improve the campaign, the online system trains a large language model (LLM). Information about previous campaigns and their performance, previously asked questions about the campaigns, and actions for modifying the campaigns are used to train the LLM. For a particular ad campaign, the online system generates a prompt for the LLM to generate a list of suggestions and corresponding actions. The online system generates an interface including the suggestions in conjunction with interface elements causing performance of one or more of the actions when selected by the publishing user.

The separating screen may be removed from and reinserted into the bulky material collection tank predominantly vertically through a closable opening, guided by an inner guide in the bulky material collection tank.

Abstract: A biometric sensor may include a scanner configured to capture a biometric data and an adjustment mechanism configured to respond to a force applied to the biometric sensor by shifting the biometric sensor from a neutral position to an adjusted position. The adjustment mechanism may be configured to respond to the removal of the force by returning the biometric sensor to the neutral position. While the biometric sensor is in the neutral position, the scanner may be capable of capturing a biometric data of a majority of users interacting with the apparatus. Accordingly, the biometric sensor may be able to operate with minimal adjustments. The biometric sensor may be part of a dispensing cabinet such that the biometric data captured by the biometric sensor may be used to control access to the dispensing cabinet. Related methods are also disclosed.
