Abstract: A system for managing a CNV reference panel is disclosed, wherein the system includes a database arrangement configured to store a plurality of sample genomic DNA sequences and metadata associated with each of plurality of sample genomic DNA sequences. The system further includes a computing arrangement communicatively coupled to the database arrangement. The computing arrangement is configured to render a user interface to receive a target genomic DNA sequence along with interpretation request for calling CNVs in target genomic DNA sequence. The computing arrangement compares the plurality of characteristic attributes in the interpretation request with the metadata associated with each of plurality of sample genomic DNA sequences. Furthermore, the computing arrangement identifies a set of sample genomic DNA sequences as a reference panel, based on the comparison. Moreover, the computing arrangement utilise the reference panel for calling CNVs in the target genomic DNA sequence.

Abstract: Portable electronic devices may be inspected for the presence of explosives using a combination of nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) and explosive trace detection (ETD). NQR may be used to detect bulk or sheet explosives while the ETD may be used to detect minute quantities of explosive particulates. An alarm indication may be generated when either the NQR spectroscopy or the ETD detects an explosive material.

Abstract: The present application discloses systems and methods for analyzing a chemical substance containing quadrupolar nuclei to determine a measurable characteristic of the substance. The systems and methods include irradiating the substance with RF energy to stimulate NQR of certain quadrupolar nuclei within the substance, receiving and processing a signal emitted from the substance to isolate an NQR signal therefrom, analyzing the NQR signal to obtain a measure of the characteristic of the substance, and providing an output indicative of the measure for analytical purposes.

Abstract: A method for analysing a chemical substance containing quadrupolar nuclei to determine a measurable characteristic of the substance. The method includes irradiating the substance with RF energy in a prescribed manner to stimulate NQR of certain quadrupolar nuclei within the substance. Then receiving and processing a signal emitted from the substance to isolate an NQR signal therefrom. Thereafter analysing the NQR signal to obtain a measure of the characteristic of the substance; and providing an output indicative of the measure for analytical purposes. Specific methods for analysing a chemical substance during production thereof to determine a characteristic of the substance indicative of the quality thereof, and for searching for chemicals together with specific systems are also described.
