  • Patent number: 9830422
    Abstract: Systems, methods and computer-readable media are described herein for determining a protein's most-likely structural alignment. A maximum likelihood algorithm is utilized that compares possible input protein structural translocations with a template protein. It then calculates the optimally superimposed position for each input protein utilizing a distance-based probability scoring algorithm that accurately manages extreme distances.

  • Patent number: 9261301
    Abstract: A vehicle transportable ice plant includes a transportable trailer including an enclosure, and an evaporator positioned within the enclosure for supplying supercooled refrigerant to a heat exchanger, a compressor downstream from the evaporator for compressing the refrigerant, a discharge line downstream from the compressor for discharging compressed refrigerant to a condenser, a condenser fan for removing heat from the condenser, and a thermostatic expansion valve for delivering supercooled refrigerant to the evaporator in an endless cycle. An ice production brings water into contact with the evaporator heat exchanger to produce ice, and an ice cube maker is provided for producing ice cubes from the ice.
