Abstract: A composition includes a target pharmaceutical or biological agent, a solution containing the target pharmaceutical or biological agent, and substrate that is soluble in the solution. The substrate is capable of being solidified via a solidification process and the solidification process causes the substrate to become physically or chemically cross-linked, vitrified, or crystallized. As a result of the solidification process, particles are formed. The target pharmaceutical or biological agent within the solution retains proper conformation to ultimately produce a desired effect.

Abstract: A method of extracting information encoded in a product includes: determining a concentration of a non-functional amount of a chemical in a product, where the concentration corresponds to one of a plurality of possible concentration ranges, where each of the plurality of possible concentration ranges indicates different non-composition manufacturing information about the product.

Abstract: A bearing assembly comprising a bearing cup having two ends, with a pair of outer raceways formed one adjacent each end of the bearing cup. A pair of bearing cones form a pair of inner raceways. Two rows of tapered roller bearings with each row received between one inner raceway and one outer raceway. A pair of wear rings are provided, each having a first axially inwardly directed end in engagement with an outwardly directed end of a bearing cone. A pair of seals each having a first end fitted into one into one of the bearing cup cylindrical counterbores. Each seal has a second end including a resilient element to form a seal with one of the wear rings. A second end of each wear ring is received in a cylindrical counterbore in each annular backing ring. A circular shroud is located radially outer and adjacent to one seal.

Abstract: A method to manage screen sharing includes receiving a screen sharing request of a shareable interface displayed on a first computing device of a first end user, conducting, in response to the session sharing request, an inventory of secured assets in the shareable interface, and generating a shared interface from the shareable interface. Generating the shared interface includes obtaining a first secured asset in the inventory of the secured assets, modifying the first secured asset based on a first end user permission defined for the first secured asset to generate a modified secured asset, and adding the modified secured asset to the shared interface. The method further includes transmitting the shared interface to a second computing device of a second end user.

Abstract: A dust-proof apparatus for a fiber optic connector has a base; a ferrule receiving sleeve positioned on a mating end of the base; two primary cantilevered arms extending substantially in parallel from the mating end of the base, with the ferrule receiving sleeve being positioned therebetween; and a secondary cantilevered arm extending from the mating end of the base, and having a locking projection receiving hole disposed on a free end.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system for detection of a network are described. A network list indicating a plurality of network identifiers associated with a mobile device is determined. Each network identifier identifies one or more access points for a respective wireless network. Locality information is determined based on one or more sensors of the mobile device. At least one of the plurality of network identifiers is selected based on the locality information. And a transmission of the selected network identifiers by the mobile device is initiated.

Abstract: A method of determining the geographic origin of a metal can comprise measuring a first isotope and a second isotope of the metal by high-resolution mass spectrometry; calculating a ratio of the first isotope and the second isotope; comparing the ratio to native ratios of isotopes of the metal of native samples from a plurality of geographic locations using a database; and matching the ratio to a geographic location.

Abstract: A fiber optic splicing assembly is disclosed having an assembly housing and a fiber storing device. The assembly housing has a mounting side and an opposite outer facing side. The fiber storing device is removably mounted to the assembly housing, and is at least partially received in an assembly receiving passageway of a mounting wall.

Abstract: A method, performed by one or more computer devices, may include generating a sequence script for a venue event, wherein the sequence script is configured to synchronize a plurality of user devices located at the venue during the venue event to form one or more images discernable when the devices are viewed collectively. The method may further include obtaining user registration information associated with the venue event, wherein the user registration information identifies user devices registered to participate in the generation of the one or more images; detecting a trigger event associated with the sequence script; and orchestrating the plurality of user devices to form the one or more images, in response to detecting the trigger event.

Abstract: The security of mobile applications may be assessed and used to enhance the security of mobile devices. In one example, a method may include determining security scores of one or more mobile applications, the security scores defining a level of security risk corresponding to the one or more mobile applications. The method may further include receiving a policy relating to mobile applications that are permitted to be used by the mobile device, the policy including a threshold security score value; and receiving the requested security scores. The method may further include restricting use of selected ones of the one or more mobile applications when a security score corresponding to the one or more mobile applications is below the threshold security score value.

Abstract: A one time password (OTP) associated with a client device, and a padding rule, of a plurality of possible padding rules, associated with the client device may be determined. A padded OTP that includes the OTP and additional data may be formed based on the padding rule. The padding rule may be associated with at least one of a position of the OTP within the padded OTP, a characteristic of the additional data, or a characteristic of the padded OTP. The padded OTP may be provided to the client device. A selection of a portion of the padded OTP may be received from the client device, and the client device may be authenticated when the selected portion of the padded OTP corresponds to the OTP. If the selected portion of the padded OTP does not correspond to the OTP, other actions may be performed based on the selected portion.
