Abstract: Systems and methods for manufacturing an organic liquid fertilizer product are shown. The contemplated systems and methods are configured to treat waste from a natural source in order to produce an organic liquid fertilizer. The liquid organic waste may be derived from an organic source. The liquid organic waste may be pre-treated through an anaerobic digestion process, or it may be treated in a raw form. Advantageously, the systems and methods of the present disclosure may be used to manufacture the organic liquid fertilizer with a sufficiently high nitrogen content, which is usable by plants and crops. The systems and methods are likewise more efficient than known systems and methods to produce such fertilizer products.

Abstract: A method of determining the risk of developing a known disease or condition or of identifying the presence of the known disease or condition in a subject includes obtaining subject data that includes results of blood tests. The blood tests include a basic metabolic panel (BMP) and a complete blood count (CBC) panel. The method further includes classifying the subject data with respect to the risk of the subject having or developing the known disease or condition by using the subject data in a machine learning classification system. The classification system includes a machine learning model previously trained on BMP and CBC data from a positive group of training subjects who received a diagnosis of the disease or condition and from a negative group of training subjects who were not diagnosed to have the disease or condition.

Abstract: A system for treating whole stillage includes a stillage tank, a separation system in communication with the stillage tank and configured to separate the whole stillage into a wet cake portion and a thin stillage portion, and a primary filtration system in communication with the separation system. The primary filtration system can be configured to separate the thin stillage into a primary concentrate and a primary permeate. A secondary filtration system in communication with the primary filtration system can be configured to further purify the primary permeate. A water reclamation system in communication with the primary and/or secondary filtration system can remove water from the permeate. An additive can be added to the primary permeate to precipitate phosphorus-containing minerals and corn oil can be advantageously extracted from the primary concentrate. Protein-enriched animal feeds can be generated from dehydration of the primary concentrate.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus, i.e. a device, for transferring a representative sample of a liquid containing particles into a chamber for analysis, such as for example, whole anticoagulated blood. The apparatus comprises an ante-chamber configured for receiving, containing, and transferring a portion of the sample to an analysis chamber. The chambers are continuous with each other, configured to allow the capillary flow of substantially the entirety of the contents of the ante-chamber into the analysis chamber to under-fill or substantially fill the analysis chamber. The apparatus can be conveniently configured as a disposable, single-use device, such as a dipstick, for performing both sampling and analysis from a single apparatus. The apparatus is useful for providing reliable and reproducible blood and body fluid analyses.

The system includes a course of treatment regimen, which includes a prescribed order of medicine amounts for periodic administration to the subject in the prescribed order. The amount of medicine includes a dose of at least one active pharmacological agent (APA) and an amount of at least one non-active pharmacological agent (NPA). The NPA provides at least one non-visual sensory cue. The dosage amounts of the APA contained within the amounts of medicine periodically administered in the prescribed order are varied within the course of treatment regimen, and the amount of the NPA contained within the amounts of medicine periodically administered in the prescribed order are held constant within the course of treatment regimen.

Abstract: A desk system including desktop, legs, and foot elements is presented. Each leg is rotatably attached at one end to the desktop and attached at another end to one foot element which is also rotatable. The system is disposed in a stowed configuration when legs and foot elements are substantially parallel to the desktop and legs are disposed between and substantially parallel to foot elements. The system is disposed in an upright configuration when legs are substantially perpendicular to the desktop and each leg is substantially perpendicular to one foot element. The system is configured from stowed to upright by separately rotating legs about a minor axis in opposite directions away from one another and by separately rotating foot elements about a major axis in opposite directions toward one another.

Abstract: Immune function of an animal can be modulated by administration of a composition that includes beta glucan. The beta glucan can be derived from Euglena, which provides a form of beta glucan that is different from other organisms, where the beta glucan is predominantly unbranched beta-(1,3)-glucan. Beta glucan can also be complexed with a metal, such as zinc, and/or can combined with an animal feed component to form an animal feed composition. Use of such compositions can improve the well being of an animal, and may augment or even replace the use of antibiotics in certain circumstances.
