  • Patent number: 12223519
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method and system for granular level segmentation of users based on online activities on a webpage in real-time. The computer-implemented method and system corresponds to a user segmentation system. The user segmentation system receives a first set of data associated with a plurality of users. The user segmentation system fetches a second set of data. The user segmentation system obtains a third set of data. The user segmentation system analyzes the first set of data, the second set of data and the third set of data using one or more machine learning algorithms. The user segmentation system creates one or more segments based on analysis performed on the first set of data, the second set of data and the third set of data. The user segmentation system initiates one or more marketing campaigns for the one or more segments.

  • Publication number: 20220160856
    Abstract: Reagents that include certain identified peptides derived from B. burgdorferi proteins, or nucleic acid sequences encoding same are useful in the diagnosis of Lyme borreliosis (Lyme Disease) in infected subject are disclosed herein. Such reagents can also include nucleic acid sequences encoding the peptides. Pharmaceutical compositions useful for the treatment or prophylaxis of B. burgdorferi infection include certain peptides derived from B. burgdorferi proteins, or nucleic acid sequences encoding same. Methods of treating or preventing Lyme borreliosis (Lyme Disease) include administering effective amount of such pharmaceutical compositions. An antibody independent prophylactic pharmaceutical composition comprises a sonicate of B. burgdorferi bacterium; and methods of treating or preventing Lyme borreliosis include administering effective amounts of that sonicate composition are also disclosed herein.

  • Publication number: 20180257073
    Abstract: Conventional dishes and plates do not induce adhesion of non-adherent eukaryotic cells and microorganisms. When animal/human cells are cultured in a Petri dish the adherent cells attach to the bottom of the dish, whereas the non-adherent cells float in the growing medium. Less than 50% of the microorganisms are culturable using conventional techniques. Currently there are no specialized dishes for culturing non-adherent cells or microorganisms. A method to induce adhesion of non-adherent eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells involves use of engravings on plastic or metal surfaces (Biosimulator). The engravings also induce proliferation of microorganisms. The non-adherent cells and microorganisms show polarity when cultured in the engraved plate. The polarity/pattern formation could be reversed with inhibitors specific for adhesion proteins.

  • Publication number: 20170145367
    Abstract: It is not understood what causes or influences pattern formation in cells during the development of an organism. When animal/human cells are cultured in a Petri dish the adherent cells attach to the bottom of the dish, whereas the non-adherent cells float in the growing medium. Currently there are no specialized dishes for culturing non-adherent cells. We now show that non-adherent cells could be induced to form distinct patterns when cultured in an etched plastic dish (Biosimulator). The non-adherent cells showed polarity when cultured in the etched plate. The polarity/pattern formation could be reversed with inhibitors specific for adhesion proteins. The phenomenon of pattern formation by non-adherent cells has wide applications in cell and developmental biology, diagnostics, microbiome research, biofluidics, drug discovery, industrial production of biological products, and also in biotechnology and bioengineering.

  • Patent number: 9568473
    Abstract: The present invention provides an isolated and purified heat shock protein 60 (Hsp60) peptide having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:2. The instant invention is also directed to a vaccine against Ehrlichia comprising a peptide homologous to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:2. The instant invention is also directed to an antibody directed against a peptide homologous to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:2. The instant invention is also directed to a method of determining whether a subject is infected with Ehrlichia, comprising the steps of: contacting a sample from a subject with the antibody described herein; and detecting a resulting antibody reaction, wherein a positive reaction indicates the subject is infected with Ehrlichia.
