Abstract: A method of making a golf club head includes interposing bonding tape between a first piece and a second piece of the golf club head such that the first piece is temporarily adhered to the second piece via a tackiness of the bonding tape. The method additionally includes positioning the first piece, the second piece, and the bonding tape, interposed between the first piece and the second piece, in a vacuum bag, and reducing a pressure within the vacuum bag, relative to a pressure external to the vacuum bag, such that the vacuum bag collapses onto the first piece and the second piece and compresses the bonding tape between the first piece and the second piece. The method also includes heating the bonding tape, at least to a curing temperature of the bonding tape, when the pressure within the vacuum bag is reduced.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to devices, apparatus and methods of improving the accuracy of image-based assay, that uses imaging system having uncertainties or deviations (imperfection) compared with an ideal imaging system. One aspect of the present invention is to add the monitoring marks on the sample holder, with at least one of their geometric and/optical properties of the monitoring marks under predetermined and known, and taking images of the sample with the monitoring marks, and train a machine learning model using the images with the monitoring mark.

Abstract: A lactate-responsive enzyme may form the basis for lactate detection and quantification using an electrochemical analyte sensor. Various features may be incorporated within an analyte sensor containing a lactate-responsive enzyme, particularly lactate oxidase, to improve sensitivity and response stability of the analyte sensor. Such analyte sensors may comprise: a working electrode having an active area disposed thereon, and a mass transport limiting membrane overcoating at least the active area upon the working electrode. The active area comprises at least a polymer, an albumin, and a lactate-responsive enzyme that is covalently bonded to the polymer. The mass transport limiting membrane may comprise at least a crosslinked polyvinylpyridine homopolymer or copolymer. The analyte sensors may determine a lactate concentration in a biological fluid, particularly in vivo, which may be correlated to various physiological conditions.
