  • Patent number: 11536733
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer program products for using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for the analysis of endogenous biomarkers, such as 11-oxo androgens, in a sample. The 11-oxo androgens may comprise at least one of 11-hydroxyandrostendione (11OHA), 11-hydroxytestosterone (11OHT) or 11-ketotestosterone (11KT). More specifically, the methods, systems, and computer program products are described for detecting and quantifying the amount of an 11-oxo-androgen in a sample.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20060190424
    Abstract: A communication system that is capable of collecting information from one or more users of the communication system includes one or more memory modules. The memory modules are operable to store one or more scripts that each comprises one or more queries for information to a user. The system also includes one or more data collection mechanisms that are coupled to the one or more memory modules and are operable to collect at least a portion of information from the user of the communication system using at least one of the one or more scripts. In one particular embodiment, the at least one script used to collect information from the user comprises one or more dynamic links that automatically initiate one or more functions based at least in part on the portion of information collected from the user.

  • Publication number: 20060190422
    Abstract: A communication system that is capable of collecting information from one or more users of the communication system includes one or more data collection mechanisms that are operated by a first entity. The mechanisms operate to collect at least a portion of information from a user of a communication system on behalf of a second entity that is different than the first entity. The system also includes one or more memory modules that are coupled to the one or more data collection mechanisms and that are operable to store one or more records on behalf of the second entity. Each of the one or more records comprises information that is associated with a client of the second entity. At least one of the one or more records comprises at least a portion of the information collected from the user of the communication system. In one particular embodiment, the one or more records are controlled by the first entity.
