Abstract: A processor-implemented method for calculating emissions and measuring carbon sequestration levels is provided. The method includes (i) registering, by a user device, a first entity associated with an amount of carbon emission and a second entity associated with an amount of carbon absorption to create an account in a blockchain-based system using user details, (ii) obtaining satellite images and the drone images of the land cover of the second entity from a satellite source database, (iii) monitoring the plurality of satellite images and the plurality of drone images of the land cover of the second entity by creating land coordinates to calculate a carbon sequestration level associated with the second entity using an AI model, and (iv) training the AI model using an algorithm by categorizing the carbon sequestration level with known species of the second entity and the known tree species includes a drone image and the date when the image is captured.

Abstract: Apparatuses and associated methods for manipulating an assembly of glass slides employed in cellular assay processes are provided. Each apparatus can accommodate at least one removable rack of slides to undergo electrophoresis in a comet assay. The slides can remain in the same apparatus while being subjected to a sequence of fluid staining and washing with temperature control, advantageously shortening the amount of time required for processing the slides by keeping them in the same work station for the entire duration of the assay.
