Abstract: The disclosure relates to monitoring or controlling bioprocesses by way of withdrawing discrete fluid samples from a reactor and performing on-line analysis of said sample using a fluidic manifold, for example, by way of a sensor based on label-free biomolecular interaction analysis. The disclosure relates to a system for measuring one or more analytes in discrete fluid samples from a vessel adapted to contain a fluid having one or more sensors for the measurement of the analytes in a contact volume of the fluid sample. An analysis module having at least one main sampling line in fluidic connection with the vessel and one or more pumps in fluidic connection with said main sampling line(s) and adapted to selectively pump fluid from in the main sampling line away from the vessel. At least one fluid distribution tubing in fluidic connection with the analysis module. A manifold has a body.

Abstract: An computer network portal is a central information source for college and professional sports recruiting coordinators, scouts and coaches to analyze and critique prospective athletes. The portal provides an on-line text and video database regarding high school, collegiate and professional athletes. For any particular athlete, the text database includes game statistics; tangible attributes such as height, weight, speed and strength; intangible attributes such as work ethic, off-season training habits and leadership indicia; and academic records such as grades, entrance exam scores and eligibility. The video database includes clips of sporting event participation and tested performance. User access is through remote client browsers connected to the portal via the Internet. The portal's web server presents a connected browser with a graphical user interface allowing the user to search, select and screen the entire pool of athletes in a particular sport, based on customized and flexible criteria.
