Abstract: A light emitting diode (LED) with a melanopic emission spectrum can comprise a primary light source and a phosphor. The primary light source can comprise an emission spectrum comprising a first peak centered at a wavelength from 480 nm to 500 nm. The phosphor, when excited, can comprise an emission spectrum with a second peak centered at a wavelength from 640 nm to 750 nm, and the intensity of the first peak is greater than the intensity of the second peak. A light emitting apparatus can comprise a first LED with a traditional white light emission spectrum, and a second LED with a melanopic emission spectrum. The light emitted from the apparatus can comprise chromaticity coordinates, in the CIE 1931 color space diagram using the 196410° Supplementary Standard Observer, that are within a one-step MacAdam ellipse from the black body locus with chromaticity coordinate x from 0.34 to 0.45.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for automated tracking of inventory levels in storage bins. In one embodiment, among others, an adjustable bin divider may comprise a supporting base that has a receiving slot at an end, the receiving slot comprising a slide channel that extends along a top portion of the supporting base; a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag that is attached to the supporting base; and a radio frequency (RF)-blocking slide divider that comprises a first panel with an RF shield and a second panel that has a narrowed end, the first panel being connected to the second panel at the narrowed end, the first panel being inserted in the receiving slot, the narrowed end fitting within the slide channel of the receiving slot, wherein the RF-blocking slide divider conceals the RFID tag from detection from an RFID reader at a position along the slide channel.

Abstract: The invention features methods, panels, cartridges, kits, and systems for rapid and sensitive detection and identification of pathogens and determination of the pathogen's susceptibility to antimicrobial agents for diagnosis and treatment of disease, including bloodstream infection (e.g., bacteremia and fungemia), and sepsis.

Abstract: A grinding machine cleaning system and method provides a range of human safe products that can easily be introduced into the grinding chamber and cycled through the equipment. Some of the products include corn cobs, walnut shells, pecan shells, nuts, rice, dried corn kernels, corn meal, barley, wheat, bulgur, and other grain, fiber, legume, nut, bark, and shell products in varying shapes and sizes. Organic products have largely been considered ideal. However, inorganic materials also may be used with equal effect.
