Abstract: A unique identifier can be associated with a commerce good. A computing system can receive a first query with a first value of a particular attribute and the unique identifier. The computing system can receive a second query with a second value of the particular attribute and the unique identifier. The computing system can determine a difference between the first value and the second value of the particular attribute. The computing system can determine that the difference between the first value and the second value meets a particular threshold. The computing system can determing an authenticity of the commerce good responsive to the difference meeting the particular threshold.

Abstract: Described are devices, systems, kits, methods, and techniques for analyzing test fluids to determine presence, absence, or concentration of analytes in the test fluids and useful for performing diagnostic testing, such as to quickly identify whether or not an individual may have a particular disease or condition, such as infection by SARS-CoV-2 or a SARS-CoV-2 variant or vaccine-induced immunity or natural immunity to infection by SARS-CoV-2 or a SARS-CoV-2 variant. The devices, systems, kits, methods, and techniques described herein can be used to detect analytes in body fluids using a functionalized electrochemical test strip and potentiostatic measurements, allowing for prompt identification of whether or not an individual has a particular disease or condition, such as in a period of 5 minutes or less.

Abstract: Methods and techniques are described for analyzing test fluids to determine presence, absence, or concentration of analytes in the test fluids. The methods may correspond to diagnostic testing, such as quickly (within 5 minutes) identifying whether or not an individual may have a particular disease or condition, such as infection by SARS-CoV-2 or a SARS-CoV-2 variant or vaccine-induced immunity or natural immunity to infection by SARS-CoV-2 or a SARS-CoV-2 variant, or whether an individual would benefit from a vaccine booster. The test results can be used for a variety of applications including facilitating or controlling access at events, venues, or transportation systems, or generating exposure notifications.

Abstract: A Certified Quick Response Code (“CQR”) is associated with a trusted Product Certificate Authority (“PCA”), which in turn is associated with a unique top-level domain (“TLD”). A CQR affixed to a product may point to a URL comprising the unique TLD. A consumer may know by virtue of the association of the TLD with the PCA that the product is legitimate, while a product manufacturer can better monitor counterfeit goods by further associating each CQR with a universal unique identifier.
