Abstract: Formation of a sterile connection includes inserting a first aseptic coupling device into a second aseptic coupling device, removing a first membrane from the first aseptic coupling device and a second membrane from the second aseptic coupling device, and rotating a locking clip on the first aseptic coupling device to compress a first seal member of the first aseptic coupling device with a second seal member of the second aseptic coupling device to form a sterile fluid passageway.

Abstract: This invention relates to IL-12 Fc fusion proteins and their use in medicine, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same, and methods of using the same as agents for treatment and/or prevention of cancer.

Abstract: An aseptic coupling arrangement can include a first coupling device and a second aseptic coupling device. In one embodiment, the first and second coupling devices are substantially similar, each having a main body defining a front face and a fluid passageway therethrough. A first connecting feature disposed on the main body of each coupling device may be provided for aligning and coupling the aseptic devices together. Each coupling device may also include a sealing member received in the main body and a membrane removably coupled to the main body front face to cover the sealing member. The first aseptic coupling device may also include a rotatable protective cover that is removably attached to the main body and connected to the membrane. In one embodiment, the removal of the protective covers away from two coupled main bodies, in a direction parallel to the front faces, causes removal of the membranes.

Abstract: Various devices and systems for display surface temperature reduction are provided. For example, such a device can comprise a vented display having a display assembly configured to generate and project images, a backlight assembly configured to generate light to illuminate the display assembly, and an air gap that separates the display assembly from the backlight assembly and that is configured to permit a flow of air through the air gap to thereby facilitate the transfer of heat from the display assembly to the air flowing through the air gap to cool the display. For example, such a system can comprise a convective cooling system that is configured to direct a flow of cooling air across an exterior surface of a display and thereby lower the temperature of the exterior surface.

Abstract: A method includes storing a test database of tests and corresponding test rules, storing a user information database, storing a profile database, and storing a threshold database including thresholds corresponding to test scores and similarity scores. The method includes, in response to receiving interaction parameters of an interaction performed by a user, identifying a set of tests based on the interaction parameters. The method includes, for each of the set of tests: calculating a score using user data of the user, corresponding test rules, and the interaction parameters; adjusting the score based on the user's profile; obtaining a threshold corresponding to the identified test; and, in response to the score exceeding the threshold, categorizing the interaction within a first category. The method also includes generating and transmitting an alert in response to the interaction being categorized within the first category.
