Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques for event detection and response. A method can include: receiving sensor data associated with an environment, processing the sensor data using artificial intelligence (AI) to detect an event in the environment, the AI being trained to correlate the received sensor data with different types of events, generating, based on the detected event, egress guidance for a user in the environment, returning instructions for presenting the egress guidance by a sensor device, and iteratively updating the egress guidance for the user based on (i) the sensor data and (ii) user feedback that is received from the sensor device.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a filter. The filter includes a porous element, a compression element and a housing. At least a portion of the porous element is coated with an alkylsilyl coating. The compression element is configured to receive the porous element thereby forming an assembly. The housing has an opening formed therein. The opening is configured to receive the assembly. The assembly is retained within the opening when the assembly is received therein.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the determination of analytes in a sample using chromatography. The present disclosure provides methods of separating an analyte from a sample. The method includes introducing a sample comprising the analytes into a chromatographic system. The chromatographic system has a flow path disposed in an interior of the chromatographic system, at least a portion of the flow path having an active coating, and a chromatographic column having a stationary phase material in an interior of the chromatographic column that facilitates separation of the analytes in the sample through interaction with at least one analyte in the sample. The active coating is selected to interact with at least one analyte in the sample through (1) a repulsive force, (2) a secondary interaction, or (3) a retention mechanism distinct from the interaction with the stationary phase material.

Abstract: The present technology relates to a method for improved recovery of phosphorylated compounds (e.g., phosphorylated glycans). In particular, the present technology utilizes certain chelator additives in a solution to wash and elute the phosphorylated compounds from a solid phase extraction cartridge.

Abstract: The present technology relates to a method of separating a sample comprising oligonucleotides. The method includes injecting a polyphosphonic acid at a concentration of between about 0.01 M to about 1 M into the sample comprising oligonucleotides. The method also includes flowing the sample and polyphosphonic acid through a liquid chromatography column and separating the oligonucleotides.

Abstract: The present disclosure discusses a method of separating a sample including oligonucleotides including coating a flow path of a chromatographic system; injecting the sample comprising oligonucleotides into the chromatographic system; flowing the sample through the chromatographic system; and separating the oligonucleotides. In some examples, the coating of the flow path is non-binding with respect to the analyte, such as oligonucleotides. Consequently, the analyte does not bind to the coating of the flow path. The non-binding coating eliminates the need for passivation, which can eliminate the formerly needed time to passivate as well. In addition, analyte can be recovered with a first injection in a system, such as chromatographic system.

Abstract: A device for separating analytes is disclosed. The device has a sample injector, sample injection needle, sample reservoir container in communication with the sample injector, chromatography column downstream of the sample injector, and fluid conduits connecting the sample injector and the column. The interior surfaces of the fluid conduits, sample injector, sample reservoir container, and column form a flow path having wetted surfaces. A portion of the wetted surfaces of the flow path are coated with an alkylsilyl coating that is inert to at least one of the analytes. The alkylsilyl coating has the Formula I: R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are each independently selected from (C1-C6)alkoxy, —NH(C1-C6)alkyl, —N((C1-C6)alkyl)2, OH, ORA, and halo. RA represents a point of attachment to the interior surfaces of the fluidic system. At least one of R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 is ORA. X is (C1-C20)alkyl, —O[(CH2)2O]1-20, -(C1-C10)[NH(CO)NH(C1-C10)]1-20-, or -(C1-C10)[alkylphenyl(C1-C10)alkyl]1-20-.

Abstract: Applying heat from a heat source to a first region to cause a first pyrolysis process, the first pyrolysis process resulting in a gaseous mixture, and applying heat from the heat source to a second region to cause a second pyrolysis process, the second pyrolysis process being applied to the gaseous mixture, wherein the second region is located closer to the heat source than the first region. Pyrolysis is used to destroy oils, tars and/or PAHs in carbonaceous material.
