Abstract: Example implementations relate to deduplication operations in a storage system. An example includes receiving data units to be stored in a persistent storage of a deduplication storage system; generating a fingerprint for each received data unit; identifying a set of fingerprints to be stored in container indexes, the container indexes including metadata indicating storage locations of data units stored in the persistent storage of the deduplication storage system; storing the identified set of fingerprints in at least one container index; and loading fingerprint entries for the identified set of fingerprints in a root node of a fingerprint tracking structure, where the fingerprint tracking structure is to identify each data unit stored in the persistent storage of the deduplication storage system.

Abstract: The non-therapeutic use of poly(DMAEMA) as an antiperspirant agent and cosmetic compositions suitable for enabling such use.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to blended meat substitute products and methods of producing the same. In some aspects, a method of producing a meat substitute product can include providing a plant based scaffolding with a carrier material, the carrier material including animal cells, adding a gelation agent to at least one of the plant-based scaffolding, and incubating the carrier material and the plant-based scaffolding in a controlled environment to produce a meat substitute product. In some embodiments, the animal cells can include at least one of skeletal muscle cells, fat cells, connective tissue cells, or skin cells.

Abstract: The non-therapeutic use of a polypeptide comprising multiple alpha-linked lysine residues as an antiperspirant agent and cosmetic compositions suitable for such use.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methodologies, systems, and devices for collecting extract in a CO2-based extraction system. A diffuser can be used, attached to one end of an extraction tube, in order to depressurize the CO2 and extract mixture as it exits the diffuser and enters the extraction collection container. A splash guard can also be attached to the extraction tube in order to block any splashing of extract while CO2 is allowed to vent from the extraction collection container.

Abstract: A hair straightening composition comprising at least one hydroxide ion generator and a disaccharide.

Abstract: The invention provides a hair treatment composition comprising a combination of a sugar, an aliphatic amino acid and a basic amino acid. The composition is particularly suitable for the treatment of hair which is dry, damaged and/or prone to manageability problems.

Abstract: A vibrating hair brush for enhanced detangling of hair, comprising a head with a base and a bristle-bearing pad, the pad comprising a motor and a vibrating actuator for generating a vibration movement in the pad, the pad being pivotally attached to the base such that the pad pivots about a pivot axis which is substantially transverse the general longitudinal axis of the hair brush and a method for detangling using said brush.

Abstract: A vibrating hair brush for enhanced detangling of hair, comprising a head portion including a motor assembly for operating a vibrating actuator and a plurality of bristles depending from a bristle pad of the head portion, wherein the actuator is disposed for generating a vibrating movement of the bristles in a curvilinear direction generally within a plane parallel to the bristle pad.

Abstract: The invention provides a hair treatment composition comprising a combination of a sugar, an amino acid and a salt of an organic acid. The composition is particularly suitable for the treatment of hair which is dry, damaged and/or prone to manageability problems.

Abstract: A vibrating hair brush provides enhanced detangling of user's hair. The brush has a bristle pad comprising a plurality of bristles disposed in a brush head. The bristle pad is supported within the brush head by a vibrating motor and isolator assembly disposed for directing a vibratory movement of the motor to a bristle pad movement in a plane generally parallel to a user's scalp. The motor and isolator assembly effectively translate a circular vibratory movement of the offset weight into an elliptical movement of the bristle pad while insulating the vibration caused by the movement of the weight from a handle of the brush.
