Abstract: The present invention provides a method of making an enantiomerically enriched tertiary or quaternary ammonium salt, and the use of a non-racemic chiral compound in the synthesis of an enantiomerically enriched tertiary or quaternary ammonium salt. The control of nitrogen-based chirality, achieved via the method of the invention, is useful where a specific tertiary or quaternary ammonium enantiomer is preferred over the other enantiomer, for example where a specific tertiary or quaternary ammonium enantiomer is more effective than the other enantiomer in treating a specific medical condition.

Abstract: Search management systems and methods that cryptographically-secure search indices, search queries, and associated document records while in-use by cloud-based search software without requiring modification to the cloud-based search core software. The search proxy resides between a cloud-based vendor application and the cloud-based search software. The search proxy uses key-based deterministic cryptographic tokenization to irreversibly cryptographically-secure plaintext words from document records for indexing and plaintext keywords from search queries for search and retrieval. The search proxy separately uses key-based encryption on the document record's pre-tokenized plaintext words, adding the encrypted data as a separate field to the document record. This encrypted field is stored as part of the document by the search service.

Abstract: A system and method for analyzing bodily fluid include a sample holder holding a bodily fluid sample, an image capture device generating an image of the bodily fluid sample comprising a plurality of fields of view. An image processor is programmed to determine a biofilm in the bodily fluid sample from the image, determine a biofilm area or volume within each of the plurality of fields of view to form a plurality of biofilm areas, determine a total biofilm area or total biofilm volume by adding the plurality of biofilm areas, determine a first value corresponding to a comparison of the total biofilm area or the total biofilm volume and a total volume of the bodily fluid sample, and classify the first value into a classification. An analyzer, using the classification, displays an indicator on a display for indicating the classification of the biofilm within the bodily fluid sample.
