  • Patent number: 11507408
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for a system that hardware locks a virtual machine to a host machine. The host machine can include a processor and a memory. A hypervisor can be stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor, causes the computing device to host one or more virtual machines. In addition, machine readable instructions stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor, cause the computing device to at least: receive a request to perform an operation on a virtual machine hosted by the hypervisor; evaluate the request to determine that the request complies with a policy; and in response to a determination that the request complies with the policy, cause the hypervisor to initiate the operation.

  • Patent number: 5492839
    Abstract: Disclosed is a novel photo-activatable derivative of ryanodine 9-hydroxy-21-(4-azidobenzoyloxy)-9-epiryanodine. This novel ryanodine derivative has been conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) and used for the production of antibodies with high affinity and specificity to ryanodine. A radioimmunoassay specific for ryanodine was developed using the anti-ryanodine antibodies, and a dissociation constant for ryanodine of 1 nM was determined. Also disclosed is the binding of a labeled, photoactivatable derivative of ryanodine (ABRy) with the ryanodine receptor of skeletal, cardiac and brain membranes. Digestion of the labeled ryanodine receptor revealed a labeled 76 kDa tryptic fragment which is critical for the formation of the high affinity ryanodine binding site.
