Abstract: The present technology relates to a method and instrument for classifying a sample. The method collects raw data from an analytical instrument (e.g., LC-MS), quantifies consistency parameters from the raw chromatographic data (e.g., peak detection) by assigning criteria and determining probability ratios, and constructs a learning model quantitation step by weighing the presence, absence, or modulation of one or more factors of the one or more samples against a decision criterion for positivity. The method can then apply the learning model to an unknown sample to detect the presence, absence, or modulation of one or more factors in the unknown sample such as the presence, absence, or modulation of a disease state or multiple disease states.

Abstract: A paper suitable for use as separator in an electrochemical cell, including at least 60 wt. % of an aramid fibril and at least 1 wt. % of an aramid fiber. The paper has a grammage of 5 to 100 g/m2, and the aramid fibril has a Canadian Standard Freeness (CSF) in a wet phase of less than 300 ml and a specific surface area (SSA) after drying of less than 3 m2/g. It has been found that a paper with this composition combines good electrolyte absorption and ion permeability with high stability during use, leading to a long lifetime for the electrochemical cell.

Abstract: An electrical insulating paper having 40-80 wt % of aramid fibrid, 10-50 wt % of aramid pulp, and 10-50 wt % of aramid short-cut. The aramid pulp is para-aramid pulp with a length of 0.5-6 mm and has a Schopper Riegler value of 15-85; the aramid fibrid is para-aramid fibrid; and the aramid short-cut is para-aramid short-cut. The paper shows a high dielectric strength and tensile index. A method for manufacturing the paper and an insulated conductor that includes the paper.

Abstract: Methods for providing transgenic plants and parts hereof that, relative to the wild type state, is modified in a complex cell wall polysaccharide structure including pectins and hemicelluloses, the modification being in the overall glycosidic linkage pattern or the monosaccharide profile, comprising transforming a plant cell with a nucleotide sequence that causes an altered production of a complex cell wall polysaccharide-modifying enzyme such as endo-rhamnogalacturonan hydrolase, an endo-rhamnogalacturonan lyase, an endo-galactanase, an endo-arabinanase, an arabinofuranosidase, a galactosidase such as a beta-galactosidase, a xylosidase and an exo-galacturosidase. The modification can occur in vivo or post harvest, in which latter case the modifying enzyme is separated in the growing plant from its substrate, e.g. by targeting the enzyme to the Golgi, the endoplasmic reticulum or a vacuole, or is in a form that is inactive in the plant.

Abstract: A multi-level educational game apparatus and method for teaching children and adults language, mathematical, and other skills. The educational game includes a board and a plurality of cards. The board comprises a plurality of rows and columns, each having a letter, word, or picture imprinted thereon. The cards have letters, words, numbers, symbols, or pictures imprinted thereon that correspond to the participant's boards. The board game includes multi-levels of difficulty corresponding to varying individual language and other ability levels. An instructor will read aloud the card and give a brief explanation of the card's contents. When a participant recognizes the cards contents on his board, he will cover the respective box with a marker. The object of the game is to complete a row or other predetermined sequence of boxes prior to another participant.
