Publication number: 20240115211Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for generating graphical displays of analyte data and/or health information. In some implementations, the graphical displays are generating based on a self-referential dataset that are modifiable based on identified portions of the data. The modified graphical displays can indicate features in the analyte data of a host.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Esteban CABRERA, JR., Lauren Danielle ARMENTA, Scott M. BELLIVEAU, Jennifer BLACKWELL, Leif N. BOWMAN, Rian DRAEGER, Arturo GARCIA, Timothy Joseph GOLDSMITH, John Michael GRAY, Andrea Jean JACKSON, Apurv Ullas KAMATH, Katherine Yerre KOEHLER, Paul KRAMER, Aditya Sagar MANDAPAKA, Michael Robert MENSINGER, Sumitaka MIKAMI, Gary A.

Patent number: 11160478Abstract: Specially designed collection strips and their processing. By using specially designed collection strips, having a backer and one or more absorbent pads, in conjunction with a unique processing method, the processes of analyzing biological samples such as blood, or the like, may be done efficiency with the elimination of cross contamination risk. Identification of the sample stays with the sample throughout the process as it resides on the collection strip. The strip absorbs a known volume. The sample with identification is placed directly in an elution solution, without mechanically separating the sample from its identification information. Elimination of the need for mechanical separation tends to reduce cross contamination, as well as reducing sample processing time.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2018Date of Patent: November 2, 2021Assignee: SEDIA BIOSCIENCES CORPORATIONInventors: Stephen Carl Piacentini, Ronald William Mink, Paul Robert Smith

Publication number: 20110003310Abstract: The present invention relates to an oral fluid rapid immunochromatography test. More particularly, the present invention relates to an oral fluid collection swab separate from a lateral flow immunochromatography strip for detecting an analyte in oral fluid, consisting essentially of a sample pad, a conjugate pad, a test zone and control zone pad made of at least one matrix material, wherein the conjugate pad lies downstream of the sample pad, and is striped with a conjugate; the test and control zone pad lies downstream of the conjugate pad, wherein the test zone is immobilized with an specific binding reagent that specifically binding to the target analyte; and the control zone, downstream of the test zone, is immobilized with a second capture reagent. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing the strip, a lateral flow immunochromatography method for detecting an analyte in oral fluid by using the strip, and kits containing the strip.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 20, 2005Publication date: January 6, 2011Applicant: BEIJING CALYPTE BIOMEDICAL TECHNOLOGYInventors: John Michael Ennis, Paul Robert Smith, Ronald William Mink, James Richard George, Toby Devorah Gottfried, Glen Michael Ford

Patent number: 7404146Abstract: There is disclosed an input device including a display for displaying a plurality of icons, and a selector for selecting a displayed icon. At least a portion of the display is an electronic display. The device is adapted such that the selector moves relative to the display between a plurality of positions. At least one position corresponds to a displayed icon. The device further includes a function selection means. A function associated with an icon corresponding to a current position of the selector is selected when the function selection means is enabled.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2004Date of Patent: July 22, 2008Assignee: Agere Systems Inc.Inventors: David James Bennetts, Lawrence Allen Rigge, Paul Robert Smith, Richard Verney
